THE BRIDGE: The Real Nappy Headed Hoes  By Darryl James April 17, 2007 “Ceas know all his hoes come to my door, then go to his floor to f—k some more.” Biggie Smalls, from “I’m F—king You Tonight.” Seriously. Let’s be honest. How many of you not only recognize those words, but love the song and other songs like it? And if you love the music that disses you and calls you hoes, then why are you upset when someone else recognizes that you like to be called hoes? Damn! Did Darryl James just go there? You’re damned right I did. If there weren’t so many hoes in our community, there wouldn’t be any debate about these filthy rappers who disrespect Black women, themselves and the rest of us by making such insulting garbage. But hoes keep dancing to this bullcrap and hoes keep making weak ass excuses for not gathering around them and beating them to within an inch of their worthless lives or at least becoming serious about shutting them down. Hoes want to celebrate being called hoes, but make up silly rules, like: “Rappers can call me hoes, but white men can’t call me hoes.” I’m sure some will be angry that a writer is using the word ho as well. Before I go on with my sarcastic tirade, let me make it clear that Don Imus should be placed on notice right now, that he has an ass kicking coming for disrespecting those young Black women who did nothing to deserve such ugly, ignorant disrespect. This is a mess and it will only get messier. But, really, for all the finger pointing and charges of sexism and oppression by some of my own deluded sisters, some of you are buying music by stupid ass rappers and laughing at comedians who also call you bitches and hoes. Don’t lie. I’ve seen you at the club acting all sophisticated, with your Cosmopolitan Martini until the beat cranks up under ••••• and ho lyrics and you jump up, exclaiming: “That’s my song!” And, no equivocating--you are some of the same women who are now outraged that Imus has become the new exposed racist of the month. Some women are asserting that we should be more concerned with the sexist content of Imus’ statement than the racist nature, ignoring the fact that he didn’t just call them generic foul names, but used code words referring specifically to the race of those young Black women. Only Black people are referred to as “nappy headed,” and stupid ass rappers have helped to codify our women as “hoes.” We just don’t learn. Some of us thought that a change was coming after Michael Richards showed the entire world what is often lurking in the heart of an otherwise regular guy. Those of us who watched Seinfeld saw Richards as a frenetic and weird funnyman, but walking around the world, he appeared to be an average guy. An average guy who is a vicious racist. Just like Don Imus. And, like Richards, Imus felt compelled to apologize and to seek forgiveness from the Black community. According to media experts, including Richard Levick, a communications strategist, this is really the standard program for media icons after disintegrating into racist unsheathing. “He has got to go out to the source of the criticism, seek absolution and hope that at some point…people will reach out to him,” said Levick. But really, f—k Don Imus! And, f—k any moronic Black person who reached out to him, especially Al Sharpton. The nation is in racial disarray right now, while some of us pretend that we have evolved, that we have had a revolution embodied in the word “••••••,” or that rappers can be excused. We were just handed a clear sign of what many Americans think of us when Michael Richards had his meltdown and acted as he does when comfortable, which includes calling us Niggers. So, why is anyone surprised that Don Imus also felt comfortable? But really, why aren’t Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and all the alphabet soup organizations protesting against the stupid ass rappers and comedians, while calling for a boycott of these ignorant Black losers who call Black women bitches and hoes all the time? The answer is because they are nappy headed hoes themselves. Really, who but a nappy headed ho would draw some imaginary line between being crapped on by stupid ass rappers and a stupid ass racist? If a Black man punches you in the mouth, wouldn’t it draw the same blood as being punched in the mouth by a white racist? And, of course, America’s favorite coon, Snoop Dogg had to weigh in with his stupid ass comments, equivocating stupidly with that sellout Bob Johnson of BET infamy, drawing an imaginary line between the hoes rappers name and the hoes named by whites. Those are two ignorant nappy headed hoes. Snoop said it in a song: “Now all you hookers and hoes know how I feel..” Now that Don Imus has been fired, Al Sharpton says he plans to go after the recording companies because he believes that they force the rappers to make derogatory lyrics. That’s one of the silliest things I have heard in a long time. Sure, we should hold the recording companies responsible, but only after taking the rappers themselves to task. If there are no records made calling Black women bitches and hoes, there would be no way for the recording companies to market and promote them. So, what is crazy old Darryl James trying to say? It’s simple—Don Imus or any other racist can only feel comfortable calling my sisters nappy headed hoes in an environment where Blacks are denigrating themselves and other Blacks are excusing it. So, yeah, since we hear these stupid ass rap bastards disrespecting Black women as well as themselves on the radio daily, how dare we try to stop Don Imus from participating? We all know that Black culture becomes pop culture, so why wouldn’t the new Black culture of self effacement become popular? Why is anyone surprised? And why are people going to be upset that I’m calling Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and that ••••• Snoop some nappy headed hoes? Let those damn perms grow out and check to find that they are nappy at the roots, baby. Clearly, they are hoes in every sense of the word because only hoes would excuse the behavior of one pimp while chastising another for the same behavior. If they weren’t hoes, they would have already been trying to shut down rap music in its current form today. But they won’t, because they are conflicted about their status as hoes. Many Black women have been standing idly by or seeking to participate. Even Queen Latifah, a woman who has the nerve to refer to herself as royalty stood by when a group of Black women were being paraded around on the world stage on leashes at the Academy Awards, while some dead brained House Niggers sang: “Whoop that trick!” I remember her ignorant words after watching that shameful parade: “Why wasn’t I included in that?” She once asked with strength and pride: “Who you calling a •••••?” Now she wants to be a ho. So, what’s a pimp to think, dawg? If some Black women want to act like hoes and still others want to celebrate that existence, how dare anyone get upset when the entire group of them are labeled as such? It’s not like there is some huge concerted effort to stop ALL references to Black women as bitches and hoes. So, one stupid ass racist lost his job. Will that really stop anything? More than likely not, at least until we turn on ourselves with the same vengeance and outrage. Either we are going to tell the entire world--which includes stupid ass rappers and stupid ass comedians—that Black women are not bitches and hoes, or we need to make sure that there is no moral outrage when other people call them that. And before we ask racists to stop disrespecting Black women and before Black women demand that Black men take responsibility for the negativity, Black women must first reject the labels. So, in conclusion, ALL of you nappy headed hoes (men AND women) need to shut up and sit down while you are being labeled correctly. Because if you didn’t like being called hoes, you would stop hoeing, right? Freak it, baby. You gotta let a ho be a ho! Darryl James is an award-winning author who is now a filmmaker.

I take serious issue with his slams on the Reverends Al and Jesse but think his overall point is valid. We need to check ourselves alot more than we have been doing. Black women included. | ||

"Sure, we should hold the recording companies responsible, but only after taking the rappers themselves to task. If there are no records made calling Black women bitches and hoes, there would be no way for the recording companies to market and promote them. " Very true. Unfortunately, there is a serious demand for this type of jaded mindless music by the X-Generation. They are the driving force behind this particular market. Gleefully self degrading ignorant Negroes are dominating the market while rebellious ghetto wannabe white wiggers are filling the coffers of a white dominated corporate recording (and the independent thug coon labels) and entertainment industry. And they in turn, throw crumbs off the table to the legions of starry eyed willing coons. "So, yeah, since we hear these stupid ass rap bastards disrespecting Black women as well as themselves on the radio daily, how dare we try to stop Don Imus from participating? We all know that Black culture becomes pop culture, so why wouldn’t the new Black culture of self effacement become popular?" Good point. These 10 brain cell testosterone driven macho ghetto thugs are more than happy to churn out one unending lyric after another, referring to themselves and their own race with the "n" word, degrading women in the worst possible ways while extolling the virtues of street hustling, pimping, gang banging and brutal retaliation against any perceived Negro who disrespects them. "And why are people going to be upset that I’m calling Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and that ••••• Snoop some nappy headed hoes? Let those damn perms grow out and check to find that they are nappy at the roots, baby." True again. Al and Jessie both have reduced themselves as cheap opportunistic race conflict ambulance chasers. And Snoop Dogg is making a mint as an icon to the post 1970 generation as a reverend purveyor of the worst human nature can offer. "Clearly, they are hoes in every sense of the word because only hoes would excuse the behavior of one pimp while chastising another for the same behavior. If they weren’t hoes, they would have already been trying to shut down rap music in its current form today. But they won’t, because they are conflicted about their status as hoes." Yep! But why would they seriously challenge a culture of self debasement, ignorance, victimization and entitlement when such behavior pays their rent and keeps their check books in the black? "Even Queen Latifah, a woman who has the nerve to refer to herself as royalty stood by when a group of Black women were being paraded around on the world stage on leashes at the Academy Awards, while some dead brained House Niggers sang: “Whoop that trick!” I remember her ignorant words after watching that shameful parade: “Why wasn’t I included in that?” " Well, Negroes have never been one to shy away from enthusiastically degrading themselves publicly. Check it out...Why would they object to portraying themselves as gaudy pimps, gang bangers, drug dealers, thugs, street whores and tramps, hustlers in da hood and brain dead hoes who have no issues with being paraded on leases like dogs? Comon'........! "So, what’s a pimp to think, dawg? If some Black women want to act like hoes and still others want to celebrate that existence, how dare anyone get upset when the entire group of them are labeled as such? " Good point. Listen up: THERE IS NO SHORTAGE OF YOUNG BLACK WOMEN WHO ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO BE WHORES, DEBASED SEX OBJECTS AND MINDLESS TRAMPS IN THESE VERY POPULAR COON TOWN VIDEOS. They have to turn thousands away at the auditions. Think not? Check out the "Flavor of Love Charm" on VH1. But of course the white man and Don Imus are behind this........ "It’s not like there is some huge concerted effort to stop ALL references to Black women as bitches and hoes." It will never happen. As sad and tragic as it is, there is an industry of young black men who have no problems or moral objections to degrading black women in the worst possible ways to make a dollar or to launch their careers as a rapper. People really need to understand this. "Either we are going to tell the entire world--which includes stupid ass rappers and stupid ass comedians—that Black women are not bitches and hoes, or we need to make sure that there is no moral outrage when other people call them that." Good luck. Sadly, there are many concerned black people who are morally outraged and frustrated with the self degrading Negro coon culture. But their frustration seems to be an agonizing one since there appears to be no relief in sight. Why? Because the coon Culture Negroes take immense pride in degrading themselves and black women (or any other women) with vulgar and racist language. And their opportunistic enabling apologists and excuse makers are dedicated to ensuring they never shoulder any personal responsibility or criticism for their self absorbed pathology. "And before we ask racists to stop disrespecting Black women and before Black women demand that Black men take responsibility for the negativity, Black women must first reject the labels."

That's like saying before I complain about somebody kicking me in the butt I got to lose weight, or dress better, or do whatever they want. THERE ARE NO PRECONDITIONS TO THIS. THEY ARE NOT GOING TO DO IT. . I don't care if I call myself a n*gga two million times a day, white folks cannot do it. That's what they are mad at. Let them eat their guts out. | ||

You are the master of coming up with ridiculous analogies, chrishayden. What is "BS" is your lame attempt to excuse black men from being responsible enough to stop insulting black women. | ||

(It would be hard to come up with a white man living or dead, besides Old John Brown or Elijah P. Lovejoy, or some of them Civil Rights folks who died in the 60's who even have the right to THINK about telling me how I should treat ANYBODY. THERE ARE NO PRECONDITIONS. THEY AIN'T GOT NOTHING TO SAY ABOUT NOTHING! If I am walking across the street and a safe is falling on my head and a white man yells at me to get out of the way I'm going to be pissed at him for talking to me out of turn. And that's the bottom line! | ||

I wouldn't care if you called yourself a nigga, either. But you're not going to call ME one. And SCREW what a white man tells you about calling anyone something. BLACK women tell you they don't want to be called names and you don't want to listen, so I hardly think you'd listen to a white man. | ||
