Quote:Actor/activist Harry Belafonte recently criticized rapper/mogul Jay-Z and his wife Beyoncé because they, like many celebrities today, have “turned their back on social responsibility.”

Unfortunately for the human race, there is a person out there that thinks his presence is more valuable than actually doing something; Jay-Z made me consider giving up all hope on the human race when he said this…

“I’m offended by that because first of all, and this is going to sound arrogant, but my presence is charity. Just who I am. Just like Obama’s is. Obama provides hope. Whether he does anything, the hope that he provides for a nation, and outside of America is enough.” He continued, “Just being who he is. You’re the first black president. If he speaks on any issue or anything he should be left alone… Of course we want to challenge him to do better.”


Your presence is charity? Obama’s presence is charity? Nah, dude. That’s got to be one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard. And what a shame it is that this comes out of the mouth of someone that – whether you like it or not – a lot of children look up to.

Can you imagine one or both of your parents raising you to believe anything else besides that you need to let your actions speak the loudest? Words and ‘presence’ are cool and all, but the last time I checked, ‘presence’ doesn’t feed the homeless or pick up a hammer and build a Habitat for Humanity house. These are things that – ahem – celebrities making tens of millions of dollars a year can afford to do more so than the struggling middle class.

It's amazing what justifies being gunned down.

Jay-Z doesn't deserve to be gunned down. He does deserve to be ignored.

As does any celebrity with an opinion.

What a dumb thread.

You would feel the same way about any black person.

I guess no more or less than I expect from our resident dim bulb lefty.

Nice to see everyone playing so well together.

Jay-Z missed the mark on common ground here...

I could see how Obama is hope to African Americans and even though I voted for the other guy in 2008 I was in some ways very proud of how far we have come. So it's ok to say Obama offers hope to people because he represents the culmination of our transformation on race.

I am in an interracial marriage, like many I know and those things did not happen too often *anywhere* just 40 years ago.

But where he goes off the path for me is this..

You’re the first black president. If he speaks on any issue or anything he should be left alone

I'm sorry to treat Obama differently than Clinton, or Bush would be racism..

I agree..... pos of the lowest magnitude.

It used to mean something when you got to meet with the president. With Jay-Z, it was Jay-Z su*cking Obama'sCock and Obama kissing Jay-Z's ass. They make a great couple.

The further a society drifts from the truth is the more it will hate those who speak it - George Orwell.

Sorry guys, someone had to call out the self-named "Hova" (as in Jehovah). Time to take out the trash, though I don't advocate violence.

Dude. The title of your thread is "Jay-Z gunned down".

Lay down whatever "truth" you want, but you need to seriously work on your delivery.

At least my stories don't go on to perpetrate my false headline like the Huffington Post on 3D printers and more...

Take a joke, or get bent. If you wonder why I think you are black, it has a lot to do with supporting people like Jay-Z. Only a certain breed would defend such a filthy comment from someone an entire race looks up to.

Every wonder why inner city blacks are hopelessly lost? Look no further than The Hova and his right hand man Obama.

Circle the part where I "supported" Jay-Z.

Yes, seriously. Inflammatory much?

Jerry Falwell is much like his namesake.

Dumb because you drink the sauce.

Wasn't Obama raised by white people? His Mom was White.
