Yachty should take the wok out of Poland now or I’m not listening to him anymore
Don’t they need to obtain the copyrights in order to perform those songs anyway? Which means these artists are at least partially at fault for this?
If they own the rights to their music publishing lol
a lot of y'all faves do not
But I'm also not at all surprised that Kanye West, Drake, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, or Rihanna would license their music to this kind of show lol. Ye a whole white supremacist, Drake/Snoop/50 are ignorant as hell, and Rihanna is a billionaire.

He took the wok to Poland to get the Polish addicted to opiates. It's 4D chess

Cmon man. I think you are severely underestimating the intelligence of Eastern Europeans. Americans are not the only ones on the planet who know what black face and it’s historical meaning. They have the internet just like us, use Twitter just like us, and have read the same outrage we put out on this thing.
Eastern Europeans aren’t just innocent little babies that just woke up today and thought it would be a neat idea to paint their faces black for a performance… which was never necessary to begin with. They get the idea from somewhere.
You doing a whole lot of assuming for a whole lot of people. I grew up in an Eastern European colonized country, racism was very real and the region had their own slurs towards people of color. Recognizing racism and blackface isn’t just strictly limited to USA wtf lmao
This comment is very ignorant and self fulfilling

Chappelle, the wayan brothers and key and peele have worn whiteface
Knew some idiot would bring this up 😂
It’s a show about impersonating an artist the best and the greatest artists of all time are all black. Should have scrapped the entire show concept tbh but it doesn’t seem like their intention is mockery at least. Though, you gotta be totally oblivious to not realize that tasteful blackface does not exist.

The racism in Europe is worse than the racism in the US because it's a more "intellectual" form of racism that has a weaker filter in terms of racial diversity.
In the US, most racists are racist because they grew up hearing their parents being racist or are just idiots. Still bad, but the views are somewhat malleable in comparison to Europe. In Europe they have these centuries of ethnic and racial superiority doctrines that served as the cradle for white supremacy that were born out of the European continent and the bogus "race science" theories that, while patently debunked over a century ago, still inform much of the thinking of the right-wing in Europe that has rapidly been growing since at least the end of the Cold War.
And as you said, the glaring majority of Europe is white and this is where white people are from, so their tolerance for non-white viewpoints and amplification of non-white voices is slim to none, letting a lot of this s*** pass largely unabated.
American racism is bad but it's not really backed by anything other than ignorance and greed. In Europe there's a dimension of reasoning that goes behind racism in the continent that is rooted in pseudoscience and cultural philosophy that goes back centuries. It's a terrifying place and I truly have no desire to go there.
White supremacy in America is on a downward spiral actually. Similar to what you said,its only fueled by ignorance and tradition at this point,but white supremacy has to take alot of L to get one big W(Trump back in office)and thats an unsure bet. Why do you think Putin backs Trump the way he does?
The end goal with Trump was to bring back supreme white power in the US,and you got motherfuckers that'll literally trade their freedom for it. But anyways,Europe/Eastern Europe has to be a frightening place for black people. I actually seen this video of this black girl in Italy,I guess she was just making videos with her friends at night,and this random old man just walks up and starts complimenting them outta nowhere,when she walks away,he's like "where are you going".
Some people in the comments were flattered by it but alot of them seen it as creepy,its like ole dude knew he had the advantage. Europe is definitely an "out of bounds" type place for black folks.
I don’t think anyone but conservative grifters would be calling that out as racist
Nobody would see it as racist really,it'd be seen as very weird and start a conversation anyway
I’m Eastern European (almost) and I have never heard a term “backface” until that Pusha T Drake diss tbh

Yeah it's for sure spiraling downward. Racism in practice was perfected in America, racism in theory was perfected in Europe. Neither were slouches in either regard

bro, putin is nazi and fascist but not necessarily racist
just look up the list of russia supporting counties, most of them aren’t white
plus that narrative that he backs up Trump is a joke

Both American and European racism are rooted in tradition. What makes European white supremacy so scary is that they actually found a way to modernize racism. Thats what the whole Trump campaign is based off of,making racism modern.
Hate to say this but we had the same show in Slovenia. It's my opinion that while this s*** is out of pocket, its presented with no malice and is just plain ignorant.
Or rather, since until recently, the black population here was always pretty much zero, there is no social context for this to be considered racist by most. Black people were never a part of life here.
Take Sinatra or Beyonce, to most people here, there is no real difference, both are just imported monolithic american stars from hollywood land. They both dont even seem real. So thats how the producers of the show see it probably.
The internet exists, but most people here dont even come in contact with african culture on the internet, so that means they are never gonna educate themself on blackface or anything like that.
That said, you could label a lot of very different countries as eastern european, but they are not all alike.

He's a dictator,nazi and fascist,but he cant be a white supremacist,thats outta line!

The US has actually done a great job at modernizing racism well before Trump tbh. US foreign policy of "spreading democracy" and providing "aid" for the "third world" is just a modernized version of classic European colonialism. Europe did a better job at modernizing racism domestically but ever since Jimmy Carter the US has been perfecting racism at the imperial level
Also since Im a ktt user I don't go outside much, but everytime I do go outside, I learn people are a lot more racist than I thought. Had random people in clubs start telling me about how "these black people are coming here to steal our women".
I guess dumb mfs really just gonna be dumb mfs no matter where u are.
