Alicia Keys Has Gone Off The Deep End
As you have probably guessed, I am a big fan of Alicia Keys. However, I must say that if her quotes in Blender magazine are accurate she has gone off the deep end. Way off the deep end. In the interview she was asked about gangsta rap.
She claims that gangsta rap was actually created by the US Government. Asked why the government would do that, she replied it was designed to "convince black people to kill each other".
Wow. That is right up there with the CIA wanting to kill gay people by developing the AIDS virus. So, in her opinion a bunch of white middle aged guys were sitting around listening to The Sugar Hill Gang and said that if they could just make it more violent that it would lead to black people killing each other.
I don't think so. I don't know what the hell she was thinking or smoking or both when she gave this interview, but she has gone way below the belt on this. Kids and teenagers listen to and respect what she says and she needs to come out and correct this. If the last quote wasn't bad enough, it gets worse.
You know why Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G were killed? Take a guess. "The murders were fuelled to stop a great black leader from existing."
Uh huh. And the reason no one is going to buy your records anymore is because you had the guts to expose the lies the government is trying to hide. Good luck on the rest of your career.
