Spike Lee quote

The rest of the article was him attacking Mississippi about their flag and hyping his hurricane movie on HBO, but I thought this was noteworthy.


Spike Lee wrote:Lee also targeted certain aspects of modern black culture during his speech.

Lee said that rap culture has perpetuated a cult of violence, drug use, disrespect to women and ignorance among a staggering portion of young blacks.

"This 'gangsta' obsession is madness," Lee said. "Thinking like that is genocide."

I think he is part of the problem with the Black community not part of the solution. most of his movies are about gansta and racial crap anyways.

I think his early movies were more about that, not his current stuff the documenteries he's done. And The 25th Hour with Edward Norton was a phenominal moive.

WTF, have you guys ever seen a Spike Lee film other than X? Go see We Cut Heads and She's Gotta Have It (which is funny as shit), and Do The Right Thing. Mo Better Blues also is good. Spike just makes films about the black expierience, if you're not black you prolly didn't get it the first time.

As far as his 'Cosby' attitute towards rap, which really expands into the culture of youth. I agree with the assesment but I think that damage is done across all races. There's some seriously shitty messages being conveyed in popular music these days. We could argue whether this actually affects our society, but we shouldn't. I do think it prepetuates the condition though, and more modern artists are getting into changing their message.

yes I have, for the most part he is a white walled nigger in a 2006 caddy instead of a regualr nigger in a 1990 caddy. thats the only difference. He is a hypocrite, a moron, and every time one of his fucking films does not get the reviews he wants he screams that the white man is bringing him down.

I agree with both of his quotes in that article.


I don't what kind of person he is.... though he was the MAN in those old school Micheal Jordan Commercials......

Air Jordan Air Jordan Air Jordan.


For some fleeting fame on the NT, anyone remember his name in those commercials?

Heard of it, lived in it, got the hell out of it. We keep movin north though baby, soon there be a black mayor in Ottawah.

heh Spazz, I can spit on New York from where I live now. It's 54 degrees outside right now. Don't tell me nuthin bout east coast unless you live here yo. and dont tell me nuthin bout black folk unless you are. Well, you can tell me, it amuses me.

Which persona is Sorina going to be tomorrow? The old guy telling war stories or the uneducated teen-aged wigger?

Mad props for use of the word wigger. I havent heard it in so long and i have been wishing it would come back.
Sorina i could tell you all about black folks ive lived outside of detroit all my life. All i was sayin is east cost gets cold as fuck and i know black people live there. You are seriously the most cracked out poster on this board i dont even know how to respond to you most of the time.

all of them and then some~only because I am.

Spazz I grew up in Camden NJ maybe you can tell me some midwestern ways but, c'mon bro. The only person you'd ever dare to call nigger edit heh auto edit changed the N word to that, I want my first amendment rights damnit! is your pearly white best friend, and you feel awkward doin that. Don't shit me man, and I won't shit you.

There is absolutely no reason for that word to ever be uttered by a person that is not black. And we both know that, don't we?

It's disrespectful and disingenuous. You are not black, you'll never be black, get over it. It blows my mind that folk think they are improving race relations by becoming (falsely) more like the race they crave to be closer to. You dumbass white boyz, you'll always need sunscreen.
