No more Brown Sugar

[Shuck Grass]

Spoken like a true oppressor. Minorities aren't dominating anything, just asking for a little respect.

How does the saying go? You don’t give respect, you earn respect.

You had a fat kid worried, I thought you meant real Brown Sugar the food. Do we need to change that to Molasses Sugar, I am ok with that as long as the keep making it.

I am pretty sure that song is an anti slavery song.

Amen. Fix your own communities first then you may see the respect without asking for it.

I agree

With all due respect I don't believe the song was written to glorify those atrocities, but rather bring awareness to what went on. You can't cancel history, you learn from it and become better. That's my 2 cents...

Here re the lyrics. They don't sound like they're attempting to bring awareness to me. "Gold Coast slave ship bound for cotton fieldsSold in the market down in New Orleans
Skydog slaver knows he's doin' all right
Hear him whip the women just around midnight
Brown Sugar, how come you taste so good
Brown Sugar, just like a young girl should
Drums beatin' cold, English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' when it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doin' all right
You should have heard him just around midnight
Brown Sugar, how come you taste so good?
Brown Sugar, just like a young girl should
Brown Sugar, how come you dance so good?
Brown Sugar, just like a black girl should
I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet 16
I'm no school boy but I know what I like
You should have heard them just around midnight
Brown Sugar, how come you taste so good
Brown Sugar, just like a young girl should
I said, yeah, yeah, yeah, wooo!
How come you, how come you dance so good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, wooo!
Just like a, just like a black girl should"

I can't argue with that.
