Rapper Nas On O'Reilly: "Everybody Has A Marketing Plan; His Marketing Plan Is Racism"

O'Reilly is a moronic, self-aggrandizing, vitriolic blowhard 99% of the time. In this instance, however, he is right. Nas should not have been on the list of performers, nor should anyone who has been making money off of perpetuating the violent stereotype of rap.

I never buy the line that is always thrown out in defense of rappers with abhorrent lyrics, "it's just a character." For all of the grieving relations of those killed, someone like Nas is the wrong choice.

Why are people so stupid. Music lyrics do not influence people to commit violence! It is just a song, a medium of expression. You are just scared of the angry scary black man. Nas sings violnts songs and uplifting songs. He not going to sing "Shoot Em Up" at the virgina teh concert! O'Reily really is a racist. He know exactly who his audience is. I know who his audience is. They are old people who find black culture scary and Bill O know's exaclty how to get ratings.

Bill O and Glenn Beck. What a pair.

All of these people making comments about Nas or rap music in general, most likely do not even listen to this genre of music... So why do you feel you can add to this discussion. Your ignorant comments come off feeling racist. Nas and hiphop in general have done a lot songs positive for black and all americans. Any dummy can pick one song or lyric to prove their point - Fox News does it all the time.

Rap music is garbage, anymore. Long gone are the days of Grandmaster Flash and the people that really had something, there, anymore it's about money and reinforcing stereotypes...politics set to music...is still politics...

WTF is wrong with you stupid liberals?

Who gives a shit what a dumb rapper thinks? He's a racist and sexist. Black trash... if you will.

Wow, what a true artist (rolling my eyes).

[Chorus]
I know you think you got it together player, but fuck the bird you with
And listen close to the makings of a perfect bitch
Listen close to the makings of a perfect bitch
There's always one thing wrong and you wish that you could switch
Or fix, while you shapin' every curve and hips, you heard of this?
The makings of a perfect bitch

[Nas]
A ghoul at night, I role like Jack the Ripper trying to choose my wife
I need a ass of a stripper, fat lipper
Mad niggaz in this one predicament
You try to choose a loyal one and stick with it
My stupid dick again searching for something to jump and then start humpin'
Convincing me that the history of a woman is about leaving a nigga with nothing
So my experiences taught me how to come up with a plan to make a right one for the man
A toy for the boy, the one that righteously will understand
And since I can't find her I guess I gotta make her
I creep in the night like a kinky undertaker
I think I'm on a caper to abduct a nerd from the Ivy League
Next stop at the strip club snatch a bad one and flee
What's next, I'm stakin' out a five star restaurant to kidnap the chef
Say goodbye to the stress.

Let's be honest here..it's the in-thing to do these days: blame everything bad on hip-hop. Just a few hours after the Michael Vick dog fighting stroy broke, people in the media started blaming "rap music" for dog fighting. I mean...c'mon already.

Regarding Bill O'Reilly..I don't know if he's racist or just confused. For one thing, a few years ago, he criticized Serena Williams for wearing that sexy body-hugging black outfit at the US Open( for the record, I loved it), saying she was setting a bad example for the young women who idolized her, but he was challenged by a guest - can't remember who it was, about a similar outfit that Britney Spears wore onstage, and O'Reilly said "well...Britney's just an entertainer."

Huh?

Bill also likes to attack rap music as violent, yet he proudly tells us that his favorite TV show is The Sopranos.

Bill is confused.

my post was in response to all the attacks on hiphop music. in my opinion i dont think bill going at nas had anything to do with racism.

As was Kanya West, Nas is slightly off-base about O'Reilly. His bias is directed all perceived "underclasses," be it minorities, women, gays, or religion(anything other than the racist male-dominated evangelical movement).
I think we need to see the fight in that manner, where these groups unite against this effort to takedown the country, and had it to the one percent.

where is the story here? Let VT have whoever they want perform there. Bill reacts like he always does, does that surprise anyone? By the way, Nas is an ARTIST, his lyrics are sexist and violent but he did not invent it. Like it or not those are parts of AMERICAN culture.grow up people.

Now imagine if a white artist would use the first two lines of Nas rascist rap using the "nigga" word a few times ? Bill may have some extrem oopinions out their but the blatant racism belongs to NAS.. Check out the Al Sharpton hat , racist machine sometime. The more racncid, vitriolic, and putrid the leftist hipocracy is spewed usually shows that their targest are right

About 15 young black men will die in the USA today, at the hands of other young black men.

Not because of Bill O'Riely.

If this rapper thought about the victims he would have NOT done this "song" for his own benefit. Typical of issue, the racist label is always used as a trigger term to strike back...no logical basis just the emotional term.

Bill O'Reilly would rather go after brilliant musicians like Nas and Ludacris instead of those committing murder and genocide in Iraq. hardly news, but typical of the mainstream media.

Blah, blah, blah, racism, blah, blah, white devil, blah.
Some old same old.

Two hatefilled racists going after each other. The are so alike.

We ought to be pleased.

Nas raps about shooting people in a memorial service about victims of a shooting. Don't know about you guys, but that seems to me to be pretty immoral.

Bill O' boy is a (R)Racist! Period! Thats ok Keith Olberman from MSNBC's COUNTDOWN will getem.

Good for you Nas.

Now it is out there.
I would like to see O'Reilly have Nas on as a guest for his variety show, on the faux news network.

O'Reilly is also sexist, stupid, arrogant, egotistical, talentless, abusive. But, he write good soft porn.

i'm glad that the people being attacked by o'reilly, hannity, coulter, malkin, chris wallace, brit hume, john gibson( the albino), and the rest of the fox bush wackers are finally standing up and repudiating them and showing them for what they are.

No - O'Reilly's marketing plan is much broader than simple racism. He hates a lot of other groups.

POSTHRUDAHART,

Can a call you Pos? or Dahart? or Thrud? Eh, we'll figure it out. I really loved how you started this post. You kinda set it up nicely with a little intrigue and mystery- I, for one, was dying to find out who this "Crapster" character really was. Then you brought in the KKK and the Nazis and I was like "right on". But you bailed out in the end and didn't tie up the loose ends. "Fill in the blank"? WTF mate? What, are you posting a sequel to that gem?

Post a comment calling oliely and this CRAPster who is calling him a racist both the pieces of of SHIT that they both are and the response from the 'minority' folk is to call you a racist. Shows how lame and empty mr. CRAPsters 'racist' comment is, since that and the 'I'm a po victim' moan are the only things these guys can come up with. Don't expect to get any respect from anyone for being bigots and whiners yourselves. At least the Nazi's and KKK folks are straight up about it. You, on the other hand, try to present yourselves as 'progressives' but are really just black racists, and white apologists for black racists. You all can kiss my (FILL IN THE BLANK) ASS you bunch of phony chickenfuckers.
