Tyler The Creator. Who is Tyler The Creator? Tyler is an american rapper and a record producer from los angeles california. He is the leader of the hiphop crew OFWGKTA. Tyler is one crazy person and doesn't care about anything. I like listening to tyler's songs especially my brother. I became interested in him because he has many different controversies that i have found out, And he is one of the rap artist i idolized. How do you classify tyler's personality? Why does he keep on bashing everyone else? Why does he talk and advert to much?
It is criticized that Tyler The Creator is a racist. A racist is described as believing that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others. Discrimination to others based on it's race.
In the first article i read about which is "Tyler The Creator's Most Racist Commercial In History" by Marc Zannotti explains how Tyler The Creator express him being a racist in this mountain dew commercial. A new Mountain Dew commercial directed by Tyler The Creator has been pulled from the airwaves and Internet after accusations of racism. The ad was removed after political analyst Dr. Boyce Watkins addressed the commercial as “arguably the most racist commercial in history”, according to a post published by yourblackworld.net. Dr. Watkins said that, among other racial stereotypes, the entire line of people is consists of African American males, including a member of Odd Future left brain . Furthermore, each male is dressed up in stereotypical “ratchety” ghetto garb: “In the world of Mountain Dew, every single suspect is black. Not just regular normal black people, but the kinds of ratchety negroes you might find in the middle of any hip-hop minstrel show … Apparently, this is the kind of ad you put out if you want to appeal to the black male demographic.
The Second Article which is What is colorism? by Nadra Kareem Nittle Exactly what is colorism? From an old children’s rhyme captures the definition in a nutshell.
For me tyler is a great hiphop artist but he should be aware of his actions, because his actions affects many people. We are all people we should not discriminate each other and it is best that we should be united and no one is left out. call him whatever but he is still a popular hiphop artist.
“If you’re black, stay back;
if you’re brown, stick around;
if you’re yellow, you’re mellow;
if you’re white, you’re all right.”
if you’re brown, stick around;
if you’re yellow, you’re mellow;
if you’re white, you’re all right.”
So colorism refers a discrimination based on skin color. Colorism disadvantages dark-skinned people, while they are privileging those with lighter skin. Research has linked colorism to smaller incomes, lower marriage rates, longer prison terms and fewer job prospects for darker-skinned people. Colorism has existed for centuries both in and outside of black America. That makes it a persistent form of discrimination that should be fought with the same urgency that racism is. In the commercial they represent the black side of people and the white side of the people that pertains to colorism.
