      My personal opinion is that his song plays on biased thoughts like always. It's good but in terms of culture it goes against my beliefs. I believe that culture is accessible for all race as long as you don't take it for granted.

I have been checking out dozens of peoples reactions to it in the past few weeks because this video really made me put myself in another mans shoes and think.

      I was thinking the same thing without the prior knowledge of his twitter post. Tom has mentioned songs being satire in the past and feel like he leans into it a lot. Honestly though nothing against Tom or his fans but I find him pretty cringe worthy. He has some great flow when he does full verse songs but I havent heard a chorus I enjoy. No hate just not my thing.

    I'm white, raised in the ghetto. My family survived off of government assistance and food shelves. My mom, a single mom raising 2 kids. I loved but hated the ghetto. I felt like I was home, but always hated the violence. My friends were some of the best ones I've had of any race (because I don't look at race I look at people for who they are). Being raised in the hood probably helped me to see the points Tom is making. My family moved to a small town in Minnesota. I went to a small school. The racism was TERRIBLE (95% of the school was white students). I had never felt so uncomfortable in my life. I'm white so I was never racially profiled or bullied at school but just hearing what they would say made me furious. However, I was profiled as a "hoodlum" and would get followed by police in my small town, and was constantly picked on for being poor and coming from nothing. I personally love where I came from. I think it helps me to appreciate things more. I also feel how Tom feels. I wonder what would have happened if I was an black. How differently would things have gone in my personal experiences. Regardless, I love this song.

  • @gabrielperri9906

    Tom made "whiteboy" and "If I was black" as two sides from a conversation. He also put on his twitter that he doesn't believe in everything that he rapped about on either one of these songs. He pulled a Joyner Lucas. But with different songs.

    • @ZIbroweed
      @ZIbroweed Před rokem

      Exactly. I think people who see this as him telling truth or telling his perspective are missing what the song says. This is him demonstrating that he knows where his perspective comes from and that he knows why others have a different perspective. Until you can articulate the perspective of the person you're talking too this well you're not ready to have a real conversation with them. You'll just be yelling at each other. He understands that people who dislike the place he's taking in the industry have their reasons for that.

    I grew up in the hood. But, I can only speak to my experience. When it comes to racism, I've spoken to way more blacks that openly hate whites way more than the other way around. As far as I'm concerned, we are all family. 98% of our DNA is the same. But as a white man, I can't publicly show pride in who I am. I'm part of the only demographic that would be called racist for doing so. I've been the target of hate when did nothing but show respect, before it was earned. I wish EVERYONE would let go of their hate. I love you bro. And everyone willing to respectfully have the conversation.

    How you feel listening to his bars is how white people generally feel about white boy.
    Its a perspective. "Don't tell me what I see with my white eyes."
    I think this song is fantastic and shows his ability to manifest the anger and frustration from both sides of the conversation.
    Most of it is about prejudice and considering how he looks, he hasn't had the "benefit of the doubt"

      Just because you haven't seen it yet, doesn't mean it aint happening. I mean, you don't have to look far, easily just check the comments of the video itself. I first heard the song from this completely ignorant Reddit thread: www.reddit.com/r/cringe/comments/cidf6h/nobody_told_him_this_was_a_bad_idea/
      It really seems like all white people are offended by this song, and using the fact that he's white making this song as an excuse to hate on it, completely missing the point and message. But they're mad. They're offended because they feel betrayed and don't believe in all the points he made. Meanwhile, the black community clearly supports this song and feels everything he says in it, because it is fact.
      He clearly had black writers help him with this shit.
      What he says has been said before, but not in a song that reaches millions, name three other songs which got all these messages from a popular artist. I'll wait. Underground rap is underground for a reason, white people don't want these messages out. Especially not worded so well that it got everyone thinking.
      Small segments of these issues are addressed all the time, however, rarely all together. Why is that?
      Probably because black people talking about black issues doesn't have as big of an impact. Which in itself is ironic that this guy presented the truths clearly and better than most rappers this era.
      Just because it's been said before, doesn't mean it lessens the impact. This is how we feel right now, and he said it clearly and threw his own race under the bus for it. We feel that and ya'll offended.

    Thank you for the honest review. Love your channel man. I think, in my opinion, in a nutshell he was saying that he respects every point of view in the black community when it comes to racism. He was like saying if this is how you feel then I understand why you would feel like that and I support and respect what you have gone through and how you feel. You have the right to feel like that because of all the crap happening in the world. Tom was acknowledging the struggles and trials that people go through.There has been so much tragedy and it's wrong. Stand by your view and dont be afraid to speak your mind. I respect the hell out of tom for fighting to get this song out. And to the people that are offended by this song...... it's a hot button topic and it can be instantly offputting, respectfully so, but give the song another listen and try to understand what's actually being said. Not every part of this song is true for everyone in the black community, but to the person that connects with an issue he brought to light just know that there is a lot of people outside the black community that acknowledge your struggle and we stand behind you. Much love to everyone! Thanks again for the review!

    Long story but figured you guys might want to know. You don't even hear about all the shit that happens. I work in courts and I can't name names or facilities but I just worked on a case where Sheriff deputies at a jail were trying to escort a black man to a new cell. He tried to break out of the transporting guards grasp and run away from him (he had schizophrenia and probably thought people were trying to kill him. The jail never read his medical history and didn't even know about it). The guard and 3 others tackled him to the ground, and handcuffed his legs and arms behind his back and put them together. (Think hog tying, which is illegal in most states) They started to tase him and stun drive him, and drop knees onto his back. They got him up, tied him to a restraint chair, and put a spit hood over his face. Proceeded to punch and elbow him until he stopped breathing. He died later that day in the hospital. The detainee never hit or spit on any of the guards.
