I got a thing for black girls …

Chester French - Black Girls

This ain’t no fetish, ain’t objectifying no one

I reject your deconstruction of my taste
But ignoramus always look in my direction
They’re so frustrated I don’t keep it in the race
Like they’ve never seen this before
Like it’s 1954
But the whole world’s turning brown and who cares

I’ve got a thing for black girls
La, la la la la, la la, la la la la la
Yeah, my mom says
I’ve got a thing for black girls
La, la la la la, la la, la la la la la
You know I got some love for black girls
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Where’s all the love for black girls

Welllll nowwwwwwwww

:-D … cannot stop making THAT face… 

NSFW.

this ish is trending on twitter…………

Edit: Okay after second and third viewing, I wish it had not been such a sexual proclamation of love for black women. because as a re-blogger noted it does bring to mind an impermanence and fad “chocolate fantasy”  (ya’ll have to know that is not new ground.. ie the ooh i’ve never been with a [insert a visible minority group] girl before] and the over-sexualization of black women is nothing new. trust me. However, the lyrics denote none of that connotation and ain’t nothing wrong with celebrating black women…..so it’s possible i may be sensitive to this based on a recent Swedesh incident. Food for thought though. food for thought, as this song could definitely have been given a number of  video treatments to showcase “black girls”.

Don’t funk with ThEESatisfaction - “QueenS”

” Don’t funk with my groove. You beta bring yo’self”

ThEESatisfaction is their name. AwENaturalE is their new 2012 album.

If you haven’t heard of em. take a listen. one of my favorite  new 2012 bands next to “The Seshen” ( they’ll be up on the blog soon as well)

they are: experimental.hip hop.soul.jazz.disco.funk.R&B. 

similar to : erykah badu.shabazz places.TV on the Radio.Gil Scot-Heron.Andre 3000. Four Tet. etc.

But they are all their own TBH. if all the artists above got together that would maybe make ThEESatisfaction’s kind of groove. one of my favorite albums. I’ll post more gems soon. 

for now enjoy their single “QueenS”
