It sounds like they all stayed home at their cribs in the burbs.

I noticed they were short, and everywhere, when my girlfriend pointed out a couple short dudes. Then she was like "I think they're jewish or something? All the short white guys have curly hair"
WHITE ISNT A COLOR

NEITHER IS BLACK; IT'S THE ABSENCE OF COLOR.

This is the kind of unity we need these days.
Yes, people from every skin color were represented in the crowd at this show. There wasn't an overbearing amount from any race.

Well the ape race and the kitten race and the amazing race were not well-represented.

Are there people in the kitten race?
And the Amazing Race is a television program. You're confusing the word "race" because it's a homonym.

See what happens from listening to too much Odd Future? You start buying into their rhetoric…

to me, it's not so much a "debate" as a personal consideration. but sure, i think this will always be so. it's not something i gave much thought to in my teens and 20s; now in my 30s, my perspective is a bit different, as are my sensitivities.
very, very young crowd. security kept it in check, but even when the crowd surged forward & back, it wasn't really enough to physically move you ;)

Seeing them at U Hall was enough for me. I almost went to the RNR show but decided to get drunk somewhere else. And you'd be surprised that some black folks have heard of them. LOL.
Case in point: they're young and they're not doing anything shock value wise that is new; they're timing of what they're doing……fuckin' perfect. What got them buzzing is how many young kids like them even if the message is shit like "fuck school" and etc. Good and bad. That crew has potential to be something greater than what they are now. The problem is the hype and the talent doesn't match like it should. Live shows are dope as hell. Some of the music if you hear it…..hit or miss; and this is coming from someone who's downloaded a lot of their stuff and gave quite a few of the albums some rotation (MellowHype is still my fav., BTW).
The comparisons to Wu…..not good. Wu is a whole different time and breed. You gotta let these little dudes do what they do and go from there.

Comparisons to Wu Tang are even shunned by the group themselves. I think it's awful. I heard someone in the crowd say that and I wanted to hit them.
