Last week Spotify podcaster Joe Rogan apologized for his flagrant use of the n-word after musician India Arie pulled her music from Spotify in protest over the vast disparity in pay between what recording artists receive vs the $100 million Spotify pays Joe Rogan [click
here if you missed that].

Uncle Tom and Uncle Festus(joe) can take a Chariot Uber to Hell. Any and every Yt person knows, that word is off limits to them, unless they want to say it for the reason it was meant. Discrimination
Black people -
It's black history month and the silence of black artists, regarding Joe Rogans comments are unacceptable - and hearing the latest coon defending Joe, makes it all the more apparent that black (men-specifically) ppl have gotten too complacent in their Hollywood role as the 'token negro' amongst a sea of yt and racially ambiguous minorities. We need to remember these excuses, justifications, and silence on #boycottSpotify and #boycottJoeRogan when they have new projects to promote. Our communal support, within the last 40-45 years, has created Hip-Hop, as well as black millionaires (& 2-3 billionaires) any generations prior has ever seen. Yet, with that power, black (men-specifically) millionaires have drifted further from the black culture, and community, that contributed to their wealth, power, and opportunities for success.
This is bigger than the "n-word", this is about demanding equity and compensation for our artistry (#boycottSpotify), so that we aren't reduced to 0.0003% of a PENNY per stream. This is about Spotify using the money from black artists streams to pay an anti-vaxxer, climate change denier, and racist (Spotify is still deleting the videos where he openly and comfortably referred to blacks as "niggers") over a $100 million dollars for an audience of 11 million listeners. Let that sink in. Black artists that have created positive, uplifting, meaningful music that may be streamed 100 million times a day, are barely receiving compensation, just so that an organization like Spotify can pay an openly racist $100 million dollars? How are more black ppl not fucking outraged? How is Jas defending this bullshit? Fucking coons are the cot damn worse! Because they can't see the forest past the trees! I guess since Joe smiles and shucks in Jas presence that totally negates the majority of folks who are outraged by the "n-word", right? Joe's "black card" should even negate the fact that Jas's industry peers aren't fairly compensated (remember Beyonce had given Spotify a firm "FUCK YOU!" a few years back too), cause, JOE IS SO FUNNY AND KIND TO MY BLACK COON TOKENISM ASS!
Ugh. Swear, black women need to remove support from #Spotify, #JoeRogan, #Jas, and #blackmen as a demographic. Seriously, they've been problematic for the last 40 years, when it comes to our (BLACK WOMEN'S) ability to progress in the industry and attain the same level of respect and wealth as black men. Instead, black men have used our culture, community, and support to secure their own seat while focusing on their own needs and preferences. Like, how black women have been pushed out in favor of yt or racially ambiguous women. Like, how black men join yt men in supporting causes and initiatives that are to our detriment (abortion rights, anti vaxxing, disproportionate amount of black women being murdered, abused, kidnapped, and trafficked) - black women, we need to acknowledge our worth and pull our support. Black men (collectively - in positions of wealth and power) are not interested in unifying with us - they want access to the same racist patriarchy as yt supremacy.
These ni66as should STFU cuz this ain't their battle... they know damn well if they got caught in a scandal...These craka jacks won't have their backs.....
Why does J Prince think it's up to him to tell us who's racist and who's not? I'm pretty sure Mr. Prince has done his own share of dirt to destroy the black community so I'll take a pass on his opinion on Rogan the racist.

^^^^^^ What you said. They waiting to see the cracks to say they not together for nothing! Kanye is doing a great job of it.
From Fear Factor to a $100 million on spotify???? What the hell is he saying that's worth all that money??
^^observe without participating
@ R in NYC, what he is saying NNNNNNNNNNigga on a regular.
Racist will pay for someone to say that every day, as a reminder you aint free or equal. Stay in your place.
How much money/perks does J Prince get for the defense? Any changes in 100 years? Forgive? Forget?
You gotta wonder what would compel a black man to publicly come forward to defend Joe's Rogan's disrespectful ass. What would be the motivation know the behavior?
@ 1:45 wow that's crazy. I didn't even know this man had a podcast.
@2:06 MONEY!! There is a sucker born every minute and being that Joe has 100 million, he can share a little with J Prince. I these house ni66gas will never go broke since the orange bandit made it cool again to go without your hood covering your white face.
If we as a people keep calling each other this offensive name. Why should we get mad when other races join in and do the same? They know we don't respect ourselves, using derogatory names from slavery like its a badge of honor today. DeSantis and Trump publicly stated he shouldn't apologize all races know how stupid we are to embrace being called the N word and anything negative that follows.
If this was any other group but African American he would suffer real consequences but when it comes to African Americans, a few will still come out and defend master holding the noose instead of condemn him. They have no true idea if he's a racist or not, they don't live with him and I'm sure he speaks differently around his own behind close doors.
When they use it they’re using it to subjugate, oppress, commit violence against, insult, offend and at best they’re mocking us.
No one Black is using the word to deny the humanity of other Black people.
That’s why.
next can we get nelly's sex tape up here!
Lowkey, the word just needs to be dropped period. No Blacks using it or anyone else. Until then, it baseless to get mad
White supremacist always stay on code. They will go down in their sinking ship with Joe the white racist screaming his fat bald head off.
Alma we know why they say. It's not working. So stop saying it is the point. There are so many other words to use besides that one offensive work.
Now for you Ms Robin, what sex tape. I want to see too. I hear he is hanging low...LOLOLOL
I don't know Jas Prince but it seems to me that if a black man had said what India said, then more black men would have felt 'comfortable' in supporting him. Being that a black woman came out and said what she said, a black man (insert coon) naturally felt the need to put her in her place. No unity in the black community between black men and black women. Black love, unity, affection are outdated / old fashioned notions in the IR loving mainstream media, support will not be tolerated.
Folks that say “if black people say it to each other, we should not get mad when others say it too.” Well, my sister and my brother can talk shit about our mom and dad all day because my sister, brother, and I share the same experiences with our parents. We will not want to fight each other for talking about our parents to each other. Let another muthafucka outside our family talk shit about our parents… it’s on. THAT’S WHY THEY CAN’T SAY IT!!! They do not share in our experiences they are not family!!!!
Spotify is getting a lot of user traffic with ppl canceling their subscriptions. I guess JR will be headed back to experience his own Fear Factor when he loses that 100m.
@11:42 you sound mad as shit at the “ blacks man” on every post. Sorry your deadbeat father failed you but stop tryna cause separation in the black community. It’s the last thing that’s needed . No real black men are getting align themselves with the views of dwights and we don’t gaf what J Prince is talking about. The tired ass strong Black women feminism is played tf out
