Chris Brown Calls Out Jay Z And America In New Interview
Chris Brown continues to prove that he sees things slightly different than the rest of the world.
During an interview with Jet magazine, Chris Brown called out Jay Z and compared himself to Trayvon Martin. The 24-year-old performer has the cover story for the Oct. 14 issue of the magazine, and it’s filled with a bunch of idiotic comments.
At one point during the interview, he called out Jay Z for stabbing a record producer more than 10 years ago,
“This is something I’ve been dealing with for the past maybe five years. Anybody with a voice — Tupac, Michael Jackson, the Notorious B.I.G. gets formatted….except maybe for Jay Z, who is accepted by White America because he shakes hands and kisses babies.
No disrespect, because I’m a fan, but nobody brings up the fact that he stabbed somebody and sold drugs. He gets a pass.”
He then compared himself to Trayvon Martin,
“I identify with Trayvon 100 percent as far as living in 2013 and still dealing with blatant racism. This generation is so used to racism that it’s normal; we don’t care. We aren’t on drugs or catching AIDS, but they still look at us as ni**as.”
Oh, Chris. No one hates you because you’re a black man who beat up a woman. They hate you because you’re a man who beat up a woman, and the fact that you just seem like a giant tool doesn’t help the situation much either.
Racism is certainly still alive in this country, but I can honestly say that I don’t think it has anything to do with your situation. People just hate douchebags, it doesn’t matter what color your skin is.
