      Brother Belafonte, had to school him, because as deep as Tourè is, brother Harry has the Pacific Ocean of wisdom knowledge and intellect, of experience to break down, this man knew Malcolm X, as well MLK..and used his entertainment status to be an activist…and this is why we have to pay attention to the wisdom of our elders, and have commonality in what is being said

      He's a real OG. Knows the game. Toure must look back on this and see the lesson schooled in this conversation- and that's what it's like when we talk to elders with more experience! All for the good. His breakdown on the deliberate marketing of Hip Hop (messaging and audience retention) comes from knowing how The Game is played politically, socially and economically

      ​@Forgotten KingzTv Interesting point, however, no one even began to be fair about Michael Jackson, he achieved so much and gave back even more. The Wiz analysis Toure gave was correct and as for the Wizard of Oz, of white cinema; in which the only singing characters were Dorathy and the Munchkins is only a classic because it was marketed that way for decades; and truth be told HOLLYWOOD didn't give a fig about Judy Garland in the end with the way they used her and threw her away.
      We've done Cinderella over too with Diana Ross and Brandy as a Musical and white Hollywood didn't like that either The WIZ was first a Musical play and the moral of the story was about knowing your self-worth and appreciating the family around you. The Wiz movie was not meant to be a carbon copy of the play starring Stephanie Mills nor of the Wizard of Oz, yet it was of the same premise but from two different prospectives; that of a young woman and of a young girl. It came at a time when Black America was still trying to depict positive imagery of ourselves in a wholesome light. Especially with all the exploitation movies. So I did not at all appreciate the comment @13:38 Paul Mooney made about Michael being "whiter than whites" is insulting; that it be known Michael has always respected the ELDERS period, especially Black and also White.
      With it only being 7 months out, from the aftermath of that horrendous trial still feverously headling, I consider his comment insensitive.
      I wished that Harry Belafonte had chimed in to defend Michael as he did about segregation because he experienced it too with the J5 being on the chitlin circuit before he went Solo. After he broke the ceiling in accomplishments and assets the music industry, came for him exponentially.

So we had good seats and the place was packed. The manager of the club came to our table and asked if we mined sharing our table, we said no. In came and sat with us Harry Belafonte 😳 ❤️ and his wife!!!!!! He was so amazing an he engaged with us, he asked me where I was from I told him from Newark NJ. He started talking even more and asked about Corey Booker which at that time he ran and lost for mayor of Newark ( he ran again & won in 2006). I will forever cherish that memory, he’s a wonderful man. God bless him.

    • @MsAppassionata
      @MsAppassionata Před 2 lety

      Well, I’m black and I agree with Mr. Belafonte. I prefer the original because it was such an iconic film. It’s got nothing to do with race. I just believe that you cannot improve upon perfection. It’s the reason I prefer the original “Goodbye Mr. Chips” (1939) to the musical remake (1969), for example. I just think that the originals were better films. Now, that has not always been the case but, in general, when the original film is considered to be a classic, there’s no point in doing a remake imo.

Google/search CZcams on how she was blacklisted in the 60/70’s after she was invited by Lady Bird Johnson to the whitehouse for a Women Doers' Luncheon on Jan. 18, 1968. The president & the First Lady didn’t quite like what she said about why youth of that day felt disillusioned.

      I agree. These are your elders with VAST experience. Listen. Your time will come to speak when you have acquired some wisdom.

      Basically young brother Toure, he’s used to being the deep one in the circle and that’s cool, especially dealing within his peer group, but in this particular scenario, he wasn’t, but he was trying to deal in a “business as usual”, and he couldn’t, especially sitting next to brother Paul, he has information mixed with comedy 🎭

    Watching toure talk is sad but I want to strongly believe he listened and the information they gave him was registered in his head after this conversation!!

      He was exhausting. He was just talking to talk. Surrounded by elders, he should of humbled himself.

      @@soindifferent_ I agree. But as an industry professional, he was brought in and directed to be that. He was the voice of the young generation and perspective. He was still annoying. Lol

      It was what the younger generation got from the older generation. A bit misguided but he knew he was out of his depth and had the warewithall to take it in. Paul was just doing comedy.

    This was, GREAT!! I never seen this before. Paul, candid as always. Who impressed me was Mister Belafonte. He’s coming from the era of Jim Crow segregation. He’s witnessed a lot. And participated in a lot organization’s. Just him alone I hung on to every word and analogy he spoke. As a group they all bought their take on the black perspective. And at times humorous. Especially Paul. Rest In Peace, Mr Mooney.👍🏽✊🏿

    I had the pleasure of meeting and dressing Mr. Belafonte.
    This must have been one of the highlights of my life.
    My dad loved him.
    I have cried like a baby while I was watching him walking down the stairs when he left.
