no one watches it for intellectual stimulation but you'd have to be an idiot to believe there aren't kids out there who eat up whatever the guests on the show put out there...good or bad

Yea I think you're confusing being articulate with being knowledgeable.Originally Posted by airmaxpenny1
@ you calling him articulate and then saying that he didn't get prep to answer the question "How do you feel about voting?" or "Is Education imporant?"...Those aren't questions an articulate person needs to be "prepped on."

He's not...but as said this what too many African-American kids look up to unfortunately. Niketalk ignores how powerful media really is, think about the fact alone we are having a 5 page discussion about dudes intelligence. Most NT'ers I would say are fairly intelligent, and can listen to the ignorance Waka spews and seperate it from the music he makes. But not everybody can and that's the unfortunate part. And it's not even Waka's fault necessarily, I don't know why BET would ask him those questions in the first place (oh wait, It's BET of course I do

Nas of all people cant talk for %*%% either. Yall made a thread saying Plies was CB4 cause he spoke clearly. We're talking about rappers tho for god's sake

i see what your saying but i was actually going to say the opposite regarding the media and its power. not that the media isn't immensely powerful or that certain figures in society aren't role models but Waka's just not that.Originally Posted by airmaxpenny1

i work with black youth ages 6-15 every single day and for the most part they don't give a damn what this n_ Waka has to say, much less on issues like education and voting.
then i see people in this thread legitimately upset at Waka who really think he's some huge detriment to society because of this one interview.
i see what royaice was saying, i can respect Waka's honesty about his incomplete education, i can appreciate the humility too as he's obviously embarrassed on national television uncomfortable as hell completely out of his element.
