Many of the stock stereotypes of black people in old animated shorts can be found in Jay-Z’s video, from thick-lipped minstrels and cannibal natives to plantation workers, sharecroppers, and Little Black Sambo (based on Helen Bannerman’s children’s book The Story of Little Black Sambo). For the latter, Jay-Z himself assumes the role of Jaybo, a play on Little Black Sambo imagery, and introduces the cartoon by appearing in the iconic circular motif that was used for classic Warner Bros. cartoons.
One scene in the music video, in which Jaybo eats watermelon, appears to be a direct reference to a shot in the bluntly racist Lantz cartoon Scrub Me Mama with a Boogie Beat (1941)
The black angels with wings and halos also would appear to be a reference to the Warner Bros. short Clean Pastures (1937)

It's an animated music video for "The Story of O.J" a new Jay-Z song.
Am I supposed to feel sorry for this rich american?
>>93573701
No because the song isn't about him. It's about poor black people not spending their money right and racial politics.

>>93575187
yeah that is a sad part of it.
But I guess you could argue that repetition is paramount for a song.i mean look at around the world by daft punk
The repetition kinda sinks in that "all these different people, are still just niggas"
because no matter what the populace will look at you for what your skin is, and not the character
Porn when?
