Fat Joe opens a can of worms with his FBA comments

Fat Joe’s recent comments on FBA have opened discussions and sparked debates across cultural and social platforms

BROOKLYN, NEW YORK USA – OCTOBER 23, 2018: Fat Joe walks the Tidal X Red Carpet at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York on October 23, 2018.

Editors note… BREAKING NEWS: Fat Joe announces he will not host BET Hip Hop Awards:

  Recent comments in an inter view by Puerto Rican rapper Fat Joe has been dominating social media. His complaining about as he labeled “The Foundational Black Authority” has opened a can of worms. ( https://new-writers.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/FAT-JOE-ON-VICKI.mp4). The correct name for this group of ideologues is “Foundational Black Americans”. More than likely Joe knew this name was incorrect.

Much to  the ire of the Democratic Party, the black political class and the white media, Joe brought attention to the groups’ power, which was evidenced in the last election.  An influence mainstream media and some black political operatives  have been trying desperately to ignore. Some even say that the Dems would rather lose an election than admit a Black group could have that much power.

There are two issues at stake here:

BLACK CULTURE
The New Black media, who exactly are they? They are the originators of the concept of “FBA”. They are African Americans who are decedents of the enslaved Black Americans who were part of the Atlantic slave trade ( https://new-writers.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/judah-clip.mp4) and the First Americans who were on this continent (https://new-writers.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/jane-elliot.mp4) long before the Mongolians came out north east Asia, came across the top of the continent and down to the Americas.

One of their task is to honor and protect Black culture. Black American culture is the most popular and is the most exploited and monetized by other people. So FBA were highly offended by Fat Joe’s denigration and disrespect of Black culture keepers and the creators of Hip Hop. Fat Joe like Jenifer Lopes were associated with Black when they first showed up. Now that they are established, they seem to be more aligned with their European DNA. Fat Joe’s last name is Cartagena which is Spanish spelling of Cartage. Cartage is a city in North Africa and the home of Hannibal the Great. Ironically, Fat Joe’s roots are African. Some of that nation’s late comers are attempting to claim Hannibal as one of their own. Fat Joe’s problem is like Arnold Swartzenaggar saying he does not like black people when his name means “Black man” in the German language.

Joe said FBA are a bunch of broke niggas that dislike anybody that is not like them. First of all, just because we are  proud of who they are, and FBA’s are proud, that does not mean they dislike other people.  That is an accusation often made whenever Black pride is displayed. They are proud because they know who we are, and know their TRUE history. Not the lies that have been told to us for centuries. Why is it that people feel threatened by confident Black Americans? So when the New Black Media, aka; FBA came down hard on Fat Joe; he was caught off guard by the level of criticism.

THE POLITICAN PERSPECTIVE

The political ramifications may have more of an impact. The reason why the term FBA was coined was their stance on Reparations. There is a group called “ADOS” who had also brought attention to the issue of Reparation. However, they started to fade when the adopted an all inclusive position on Reparations including adding Corey Booker’s Baby Bond proposal to their demands.

     FBA stood their ground and said only Black Americans who were descended from enslaved Black American should be counted. They were brought here from Africa or the 1st American who were the first humans on this continent. This is the position that clearly won out as Fat Joe’s protest confirmed. Here are the problematic comment by Joe. He asked the host during the interview “ do you want me to say their name because it may give them too much attention?” And yes, it did give them more attention but they already had enough attention to help Kamala lose the election and I emphasize help. The last thing that the Democrats, the white media, the Black political class and their entertainment buddies  want to do  is to give the new Black media credit for the influence they have on Black though. They had an impact on the presidential race.

They have been telling Black voters for the last 20 years that they are being abused by the Democrats. None of these groups push reparations, which is the most important issue for FBA and their followers. None would dare acknowledge their increasing influence of The New Black media. Barack Obama, Beyonce, Oprah and the group Million Black Men could not overcome the information the New Black Media and FBA has been sharing. We are the hope of the Black mass.

Information is coming out and is being shared that confirms  that Black people were here in the Americas, North, South and Central long before the so-called Native Americans. Over the centuries these First Americas interbred with Blacks from the slave trade. Many of these Africans were the Hebrew Jews from the Land of Judah which is what East Africa was called on early maps. They brought their knowledge, skills, genius https://new-writers.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/invented.mp4  spirituality and creativity with them.

  So when FBA demand they be compensated for the land that was taken and the labor, skills and knowledge that was used to build America, they have an iron clad claim to be paid. America will continue to be cursed with floods , fires, mass  murders and drug deaths until their crimes are acknowledged and this debt is paid.
