he hasnt even seen any of them judge for him to make such allegations and comments but nether less when ai airs its going to bring a whole new light on nicki and im highly anticipating what she does in that light
Mirror, mirror won't you realize I just have to decide...
What chu hiding from- What chu hiding from;
Hiding baby,
....
Would you, would you... give your aaaallll for you?
But I didn't think of slavery when he posted "field" so why are you inferring that?
What I am saying is that he could have easily stated Mid West if what you are saying is valid. There is no need to be addressing any fields. I mean, was Bob dylan born on a field? You are still speculating (and trying to defend Steven) on what was meant by his tweet.
Can you address the fact that he was critiquing r&b and country artists while he was on the panel? Why is he so bothered with Nicki again?
I'll wait.
Why am I inferring that? Um, you're calling him racist because he said something about a black woman and a field. If you're not thinking about slavery, then what ARE you thinking about?
He could have said Midwest. He could have said Minnesota. He could have said farm. He could have said ranch. He could have said range. Semantics semantics semantics, it doesn't change anything. Bob Dylan was raised out on the range. He comes from a rural family. I'm not speculating anything. I said exactly what he said. You're over here extrapolating and trying to find racism in what he said. Who's speculating again?
He's saying that he doesn't think a rapper can critique a singer, specifically a rocker. It's ignorant, but he would have said that about Eminem, Jay Z, or Kreayshawn. I'm not agreeing with him. I'm just saying, he isn't being racist.
He didn't say anything about "black".
He said something like "If Bob Dylan auditioned for American Idol, Nicki Minaj would send him back to the cornfields".
Dylan's from Minnesota. Minnesota—that whole Midwest region—is known for cornfields.
When I think of cornfields, I don't think of black people. There's no connection. Black people were in the cotton fields on plantations in the South. They had to bend their backs in the fields picking cotton. Cornfields on the other hand are in the Midwest, and have always been associated with poor White farmers. You don't pick corn with your hands. You get on a tractor. Tractors have never been associated with black people.
Ain't no damn black people out there.
When I think of cornfields, I think of:
or
or even Cornfed from Real Chance of Love
If black people are really looking at cornfields and IMMEDIATELY thinking about slavery, then ch we have GOT to do better.
Not the shot of cornfed from that vh1 show.
All that and Steven could have easily just stated "mid-west" and you still haven't shown us proof that Steven and bob dylan know each other to the point where steven would say that bob dylan was born on the cornfield to which he referenced.
Again, steven shouldn't even be questioning a rapper judging a rocker (which was your excuse) when he judged r*B artists and country artist while on the panel.
Well Nicki likes to copy draw inspiration from most artist in the music industry past and present so why not after someone who's highly looked up to and barely in any drama?
sis why are you doing this??? and why would the queen copy any one in this world? NICKI HAS HERE ON FREAKING MIND!!! CLEARLY she MAKING MORE MONEY THAN ANY OTHER RAPPER!!! i suggest you to take a sit
slaves worked in both corn fields and cotton fields tho..........
Slaves are not known for working in cornfields, stop. And even if they were, what is racist about sending a WHITE man back home to the cornfields where he was raised?

No, y'all are doing to much calling the man racist. This is why people can't move forward, always pulling the race card when it isn't applicable.
Are you really a stan? Most of your post is so...... And like I said before. Nicki isn't Beyonce so however she acts is her business. My opinion won't change. End of discussion.
I stan here and there but im not oblivious to Nicki's mistakes and bad decisions. I don't have my head shoved so far up her asshole to where I'm praising and defending every things she does anymore.

mgkd. Bitch don't read me.
I know he didn't say anything about black people in particular, but being that Nicki Minaj is black... you know how it goes. lol.
It was just taken out of proportion, and I think he just needed to word it better.
And gerl.. you know nobody cares about the word before field.. all the hear is "field" and start assuming.
some of you flop floppers need to take a sit or dont even post in this base cause CLEARLY we as barb dont like fake stans!! some of yall need try to think b4 you post!!
Most people don't realize YOUR opinion is irrelevant as Fuq.

they're not known for it, but they certainly did. obviously it sounds racist when first heard and steven probably didn't mean for it to come out that way, you can't blame nicki for taking it the way she did. when i first read what he said, i thought it was a racist comment till i examined it more, but still it's his fault as much as hers.

He doesn't have to know Bob like that. I don't even know him like that, and I found that information in 5 seconds on Wikipedia. I'm sure rock fans, like Steve, a rocker himself, know that Bob is a country boy.
And I don't disagree. I'm just saying, he isn't being racist.
Why am I inferring that? Um, you're calling him racist because he said something about a black woman and a field. If you're not thinking about slavery, then what ARE you thinking about?
He could have said Midwest. He could have said Minnesota. He could have said farm. He could have said ranch. He could have said range. Semantics semantics semantics, it doesn't change anything. Bob Dylan was raised out on the range. He comes from a rural family. I'm not speculating anything. I said exactly what he said. You're over here extrapolating and trying to find racism in what he said. Who's speculating again?
He's saying that he doesn't think a rapper can critique a singer, specifically a rocker. It's ignorant, but he would have said that about Eminem, Jay Z, or Kreayshawn. I'm not agreeing with him. I'm just saying, he isn't being racist.
I don't believe this at all. Steven wouldn't dare. And since when does anyone see Nicki as just a rapper except herself? Any other time she'll be that popstar who's a sellout. BUT when it comes to something like this, she's just a rapper. And this further proves what Nicki said in the tweet. Is it because I'm black. Or a rapper? No lies what spotted.
I know he didn't say anything about black people in particular, but being that Nicki Minaj is black... you know how it goes. lol.

Wait a minute...I called him a racist???
It's not semantics, its sensitivity...there is a difference.
You are now speculating that Steven would say the same thing about Em, Jay z or kreayshawn and you don't know that, luv.
What you don't seem to understand and what I have to tell you a third/fourth time is that Steven should have never sent the tweet to begin. Forget about the wording. He judged country, r&b and pop artists when he is a rock artist.
Unless, he's was a gospel artist judging sunday's best or one of those country shows that are a rip off of ai he is in NO position to question that when he did the same thing.
I think you need to go back to see because i know that many people have made comments but I don't recall saying that he was racist, though. I did commend Nicki for how she handled it minus the f.u.
Nicki on The Project in Australian. A actually funny video. Her interviews overseas are actually funny to watch. And she doesn't seem to have attitudes with them.
