Yesterday the Internets were ablaze with comebacks at John Mayer’s comments about not dating black women and personifying his d*ck as a white supremacist and for using the “N” word in an interview with Playboy. He said,
“If you really had a hood pass, you could call it a nigger pass.”
Then when asked if “black women throw themselves at [him]? He responded,
“I don’t think I open myself to it. My dick is sort of like a white supremacist. I’ve got a Benetton heart and a f*ckin’ David Duke cock. I’m going to start dating separately from my dick.”
Let’s just say people were not happy. Twitter folks were on they’re Kanye tip…CAPS-LOCK ranting and all. Check out some of folks responses on the homie’s Necole Bitchie site.
Then he took it to the stage, where he broke down.
“In the quest to be clever, I completely forgot about the people that I love and the people that love me…I quit the media game. I’m out. I’m done. I just want to play my guitar.”. He also assured the audience that his band and background singers (which are black) were not on the stage because they condoned what he said, but because they supported his growth as an artist.”
Realtalk John Mayer is a funny dude, very raw and basically what you see is what you get type of person…I highly doubt he’s a racist or the demon people are making him out to be. Yeah, it was wrong for him to use the “n” word but then again why are people using “hood pass”…that’s just as derogatory. John just suffered a brief moment of diarrhea of the mouth. It happens to everyone. When you give a word like the “n” word such power then of course you’ll be offended.
THOUGHTS?!
