CLASSIC | Nigerian claims Black Americans are COOKED for Gate Keeping Essence Fest ?

Added: 2026-05-29

[00:00:00]the Essence Festival and the division between the African-American community and the Africans and the Caribbeans proved my point because in the comments people are over there causing me out telling me to go back to my country, go back [clears throat] to this, go back to that. And that proves my point. We are here fighting meanwhile the president is playing in our face. He's No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You, ma'am, are playing in our face just like the president you say. Okay? You're playing in our face because what you tried to do in that first video and the reason why foundational black Americans are checking your dumb ass is because you were trying to gaslight, you were trying to shame foundational black Americans for gatekeeping their cultural events and their cultural heritage.

[00:00:43]Okay? That's the same thing the white man does.

[00:00:47]You dig? Whenever we start gatekeeping our events, whenever we start saying, "Hey, man, we have a certain standard among foundational black Americans and we're not going to allow our culture to become run down and our cultural events to become changed and run down, then y'all start wagging your finger and telling us how dumb we are.

[00:01:05]You dig? Therefore, foundational black Americans rightfully so start seeing you as the enemy.

[00:01:10]You dig? We view that as a form of cooning.

[00:01:13]You dig? Whenever people have a issue with us gatekeeping our culture and having a certain standard for our cultural events, that's a form of cooning.

[00:01:23]You believe black people or black American culture should just be run through the mud where you just do anything with foundational black American culture.

[00:01:31]Do anything. You can do anything. Just throw a J'ouvert event. Turn it into uh uh black British cultural events. Do whatever you want with it. No, no, no, no. We have higher standards. Now, I know when your homeland many times, unfortunately, your people don't have the same standards. They'll do anything for a buck as long as it make money and make sense. But over here, we move different and we're not going to tolerate any uh tethers who come from some of these third world countries to come over here wagging their finger and telling us what we can and cannot do. We're not going to allow that. But, let's continue.

[00:02:04]Meanwhile, the president is playing in our face. He's deporting the people with the wrong skin tone. Ah. He willfully, willingly went to South Africa and brought the white South Africans to America and give them Ah. give them green card, give them pathway to stay.

[00:02:21]They are playing in our faces, but we are over here pursuing rats. We are over here talking nonsense. We are over here fighting with ghosts.

[00:02:29]Fighting over irrelevant things. Ah.

[00:02:32]>> Like I said, the black man we are mentally enslaved.

[00:02:38]Ah. Did you see that, family? Did you catch that? See, what what [ __ ] you are mentally enslaved. Why are we mentally enslaved? Because we want to gatekeep our culture. Because we want to hold our culture events to a certain standards.

[00:02:50]According to her and other people, what we should be focused on is the fact that uh they are allowing white immigrants to come here and they are not allowing the black ones. No, no, no, we're not immigrants, ma'am. That has nothing to do with us. See, they want us to have all our energy is supposed to go towards looking out for them.

[00:03:10]That's why we're mentally enslaved.

[00:03:12]We're supposed to be sitting over here crashing out in America because of the immigrant crisis.

[00:03:18]Because you have white immigrants coming over, you have no black immigrants. No, no, no, no, we're good. Because the black immigrants, when we get out here and we crash out, we get out here and we fight for y'all, y'all come over here talking like you. You come over here wagging your finger.

[00:03:34]You come over here calling us dumb, stupid, mentally enslaved and talking about we're never getting out of the trenches that we were never in.

[00:03:41]You dig?

[00:03:43]No, no, no, we good. We don't need no more of this type of energy over here.

[00:03:47]We're good. We're letting y'all hold y'all own nuts. But, since you know so much, Queen, respectfully, why ain't you getting out here fighting for the immigrants? Y'all don't need us.

[00:03:57]Because according to the black immigrants, we're lazy, we're dumb, we're divisive, and I guess y'all aren't. So, if y'all aren't, y'all should be getting up here, picking yourself up by the bootstraps, like y'all always tell us, and fight your own battles.

[00:04:14]Don't get mad at us. And this is also why a lot of people are saying things like Pan-Africanism is dead. Okay?

[00:04:22]Because this is the mindset of many Pan-Africanists. Many Pan-Africanists in general, no matter if they're FBA or non-FBA, they have this mindset where foundational black Americans, we're supposed to crash out for them, and we're not supposed to get anything for ourselves. We're not supposed to do anything that is strictly for us. We're just supposed to crash out for them.

[00:04:42]We're always supposed to be worried about their issues all the time.

[00:04:45]And what how they're doing, and what they're doing, and what they need from us.

[00:04:50]And then when we say simple things like, "Hey, man, I don't like the way Essence Fest is being run. I want to see black more black American culture." Then they start finger wagging.

[00:04:59]And this is why a lot of people say Pan-Africanism is now dead, and a lot of people are not on that anymore. You dig?

[00:05:06]But let's let her continue. I will not getting out of the trenches. If you want, keep arguing. We are not getting out of the trenches. We are too far gone.

[00:05:14]What What are we fighting about? A festival.

[00:05:18]Something so inconsequential.

[00:05:20]Let's be family. This woman is on TikTok. She runs a nursing page on TikTok. Okay? Her page doesn't really have anything to do with these type of This is not her niche. So, you're clearly pressed about it. You're pressed about this situation. Okay? Why are you talking about this? You deal with nursing topics and [ __ ] like that. But you came on here because you were bothered because y'all don't like it when you can't tether and latch on to us and ride our coattails. The moment we start brushing off our coattails, y'all get nervous.

[00:05:53]And they stop whatever they're doing and they want to lecture FBAs.

[00:05:58]No, no, no, no, no, no, no. When you can't tether, you have an issue. We ain't pressed about it. We're saying, "Hey, we're just simply not going to show up and this is the reason why."

[00:06:08]You dig?

[00:06:10]But let's let her continue.

[00:06:14]We cooked.

[00:06:15]But we don't know it yet. Like even in Nigeria, we don't even like each other.

[00:06:19]Oh.

[00:06:20]>> Black South Africans don't like black people. They are so xenophobic.

[00:06:24]Mhm.

[00:06:26]We are cooked.

[00:06:28]Mhm.

[00:06:29]Until then, drink water and mind your business. Oh lord. All right. All right. All right.

[00:06:35]It gets into the eye-bucking. It gets into the cooning now, okay? And that shows you how un-serious these folks are. No, no, no, ma'am. Let me address that last point because she said, "We're cooked." No, no, no, no, ma'am. As you just explained, in Nigeria, y'all don't get along with each other and I've told y'all that 100 times. Uh in Africa, the continent in general, they say Nigerians and South Africans don't like each other. The tribalism runs rampant. So, what that shows is y'all are the common denominator wherever there's issues.

[00:07:03]You dig?

[00:07:05]Get the motherland together. Get the motherland together. All right? Y'all are the common denominator and that's why you're over here, ma'am. You're not in the motherland. Y'all talk all that "What we need to do" [ __ ] and then don't do it in your homeland.

[00:07:20]You dig? Don't do it in your homeland.
