Slim Thug can drink bleach.
Oh no, was that too harsh?
Well, that’s how I’m feeling after discovering how an artist whose southern rhythms I now regret blasting through my Brownstone window really feels about me.
Yep, it’s kind of safe to say Slim Thug’s recent words on Black women and relationships makes John Mayer look like a saint.
The rapper most known for his hit album Already Platinum and a feature on Beyonce’s ‘Check On It,’ all of which took place years ago spoke to Vibe about why its hard to trust a Black woman. Among the more insulting, degrading and just downright uneducated things that comes from the 29-year-old Houston rapper’s mouth is, “Black women have to bow down, start cooking and be down for they man more.”
Really Stayve Jerome Thomas? One question: How do the women in your family feel about your words? Oh, your weren’t referring to them, right?
There’s more.
“My girl is Black and White. I guess the half White in her is where she still cooks and do all the shit I say, so we make it. She just takes care of me and I like that.” He continues to half humiliate and half praise his half White girl. “She don’t be begging and I don’t gotta buy her all this crazy ass shit. And she’s a smart girl too. She graduated from Columbia and I like that about her so its cool.”
Next question: What does your biracial girlfriend think about your words? Oh, she probably speaks when you grant her permission to, right?
“White women treat they man like a king and Black women feel like they ain’t gotta do that shit. Black women need to stand by their man more.”
Somebody get Letoya Luckett on the phone.
You know, I could go into an analytical rebuttal calling out the overt misogyny, self-hating and unsubstantiated claims Slim Thug among loads of hurt and ignorant rappers have made. But I won’t. Because this is how they like to respond:

Riiiiiiight.

I absolutely agree with you. I told my fiance’ the same thing when I read this foolishness earlier today. WHY IN THE HELL IS THE BLACK MAN CONSTANTLY TRYING TO PUT DOWN THE BLACK WOMAN????????? IF YA’LL MOFO’S ARE SO HAPPY WITH YOUR WHITE WOMEN, LEAVE US THE HELL ALONE. STOP TALKING ABOUT US ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF BLACK MEN ARE TRULY HAPPY WITH THEIR WHITE WOMEN, THEY WOULDN’T HAVE TO KEEP VALIDATING IT FOR US ALL THE TIME. I can’t help but wonder why they keep explaining themselves to us. Who are they trying to convince? Quite frankly, I don’t give frog legs what race of girl you choose to date. DO YOU. I do care when you try to demean me and my heritage in the process. Because this conversation comes up in the media every few months, I’m beginning to think that black men DO feel as if they are selling out their race somehow…..
Look Slim, It’s OK if you prefer to date lighter skinned women over darker skinned women. That’s YO muther f’n business. Do what you want to do. However, CAN YOU PLEASE REFRAIN FROM BERATING BLACK WOMEN IN THE PROCESS? You live your life the way you want. Black women do not care! But we WILL speak out against you and hold you accountable for your words. Believe that! YOU WILL NOT SAY BS LIKE THIS AND EXPECT US TO BUY YOUR ALBUM OR ANYONE ELSE’S ALBUM YOU ARE ON FOR THAT MATTER. I have told my fiance’ whom is black man by the way that he will not play any cd that you are on while he’s around me. HE AGREED and called you an idiot.
I feel bad for slimthug’s girl. She gotta be an idiot if she stays with you after you’ve publicly humiliated her and her entire family. CAN YA’LL IMAGINE WHAT HER FRIENDS AND FAMILY ARE SAYING ABOUT HER AFTER READING SLIM’S DEROGATORY COMMENTS? Slimthug managed to insult his girlfriend’s ENTIRE existence by his comments. “She does what I say so we make it.” WTF? I want clarification on that remark. He never once said what he does for her. HE IS JUST THANKFUL SHE HAS SET HER STANDARDS SO LOW AS TO BE WITH HIM. HE IS THANKFUL THAT SHE DOESN’T REQUIRE MUCH OF HIM. YOU’RE WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND B/C SHE “DOES WHAT YOU SAY???” Not to mention his brother’s white girlfriend,now she and her family looking sideways too,…..Summed up….Thank you white woman for not having standards and choosing to date me. Thank goodness I don’t have to work on being a better person to date a black girl…
LASTLY, I AM SOOOO F’N SICK AND TIRED OF ALL THESE CELEBRITIES WHO ARE SAYING, “I DIDN’T SIGN UP TO BE NOBODY’S ROLE MODEL.” LOOK! LIKE OR NOT WHEN YOU SIGNED UP TO BE A CELEBRITY, YOU BECAME A ROLE MODEL TO KIDS. (period) THERE’S NO WAY AROUND IT. IF KIDS LOOK UP TO YOU THAT IS NOT A SIGN OF BAD PARENTING. THAT IS JUST WHAT KIDS DO!!! LIKE IT OR NOT, KIDS WILL BE INFLUENCED BY YOU (PERIOD) THERE IS NO WAY AROUND IT. My parents have been married for almost 40 years and they are exemplary parents. All 3 of my siblings i and we all graduated from college and are working on advanced degrees. Yet, regardless of their great parenting, I still wanted braids like Brandy’s and blonde hair like Beyonce’.
Slimthug, I am praying for you…and I do sincerely hope that you work out your deeply-rooted psychological issues… and stop blaming black women for your messed up psyche
It’s dumb shit like this that really make me angry… As a black woman I have nothing against a black man wanting to date out side his race but when they want to add insult to injury and try to belittle black women…?!!! I don’t think so… BLACK MEN CAME FROM BLACK WOMEN!!!! They need to remember that! To all those non-black women that have these black men… KEEP THEM!! COS THEY ARE A DISGRACE TO OUR RACE AND WE DO NOT WANT THEM!!! And when they have a mix-raced daughter and the white man sees them as BLACK, I sure hope he can support her in the difficulties she will face with putting up with black ass-holes such as her father.

I really think we are giving this idiot and many like him so much power. We need to not listen to their music. I mean if we look at it, I can applude other races of people for black ballling someone they think has attacked them. Not us, we stick by them through thick and thin and then get mad when they slap the crap out of us. Money speaks, not yelling, screaming, and hollering. STOP supporting these artists any way you can. Don’t even the read the magazines they are in, or watch the channels they are in…PERIOD. I won’t.
If you don’t want to look at me, I damn sure don’t want to look at you(and my money don’t either).
AMEN! I’M DOWN WITH YOU BOO!
Yo Slim dog you keep putting black women down all I got to say is you don’t know what you are missing but then again less competition for me. I love black women to bits as a matter of fact I just helped a Tyra banks lookalike with her shopping the only thing that saved her was the ring on her finger I was getting ready to take her number put I tell you if her man keeps letting that girl loose with the shopping she would soon be carrying my baby.If you are reading this I would give you a bigger ring and you may not like this but hey lifes a bitch, I would not let you out of my sight.
well thats not true but if that what hes feelin i cant knock him but i am a 20 year old black woman who can take care of me and a real black men i cook i clean i have my head on right i have class and respect for myself and takes a real men to see that and it dont matter if its black white asian latino a real men is a real men and they come and all sizes and different rasict and same goes for woman but me ima be there for my men im jus not bout to let him come at me stupid and somethings a man could do for they self and when i dont need a dude doin for me i could do for myself so u cant judge all black woman for the way some black woman carry they self
If this character(of whom I’m unaware;I’m a Country,heavy metal and garage rock fan who
HATES [C)rap!!!)hd said black women should drop about 150 lb. from their fat a**es,
lose their b***hy attitudes,and generally learned to respect us black lads,I’d agree 100%,but this a**-clown thinks black women should kow-tow to him as if he’s a king or their master.WHAT AN IGNORANT PIECE OF WORK!!!

I am disappointed in him. He cannot fault a Black woman for having ambition, seizing opportunites, and expecting our male counterparts to do the same. The topic of us being “down” is getting really old. How about they start being “down” for us? Maybe he’s been hurt by a Black woman before or met some living proof of some of those stereotypes that he talks about, but that does not give him the right to categorize us all!
but actually, on the real, whooo cares what Slim Thug has to say? his rhymes is like dr. suess books on some ab ab ba ba rhyme scheme.
lol but on an even more real note: he goes IN on the state of black hetero relationships and how they have becomes EXTREMELY transactional based on what is exchanged rather than what is built. (Insert critique of… See More messages in mainstream hip-hop here)
The women he ACTUALLY degrades in this is WHITE women–he painted a pretty picture of the white side of his gf as submissive and subservient.
Read: “I guess the half White in her is where she still cooks and do all the shit that I say, so we make it. She just takes care of me and I like that.”
Really Slim Thug? All the shit that you say. well, if you say so.
so black women: sit down. shut up. and pay off your credit card bills. for real.
I take Slim Thug with a grain of salt, I view his statement in the same context of John Meyer and all the other media outlet and men who said something generalizing black women as a hold and degrade us…my thought pattern is SCREW THEM. Trust, these men are the last men on earth for every asshole they are great guys who think the opposite so I won’t be loosing any sleep over this b*tch. Personally, I don’t care what he says because he is just another ignorant, self hater who needs to do some reflection of his inner soul and person. If he feels that way about black women, then what do he feel about his mother, aunts, sisters(if he have them), etc. Screw him ladies, don’t get mad about what he said, I find that as a blessing so black women can skip this loser and don’t line his pockets with money by buying his music
we care why???! why are we giving this trash so much attention?
I’ve a message for Slim Thug’s girlfriend and it comes from the biggest wanksta of all (him):
“You need to stop playing ’round with all the clowns and them wankstas.” – Slim Thug (Beyoncé, Check On It)
This is what the media loves. You can always find some inconsequential black man or woman who will slam the other half of the race and like Pavlov’s dog we will react. Just sit back and watch the gullible one’s of us go in on each other. Let’s be better than this Black people.
