[tnlance1]

CC1796, You're comments shows how ignorant you are. You want to see happen what Charles Manson said what would happen back in 1968-69. We'll we are almost now in 2012 and I see no fighting going on between colors. I'm seeing more mixed relationships than ever before. Why don't you get your bible out and read it!

[tnlance1]

In Respect Of Roger and His Talents, can't you people stop using your vulgar lanugage! Rest in Peace Roger Troutman, your are being missed by many white kids back in the day that you recorded good music like this!

Hey BLAZE, I went to a 90% White High School back in the day. I found Black People love me better then White People! When I got away from the White School High School, I jamed to this song, and I went to hang out with the Bros. They were my "Real Friends" and didn't make fun of me.

[tnlance1]

This Album Kicked Ass, per Horatio Caine (David Caruso)! Long live Roger in our hearts! He was the King of "Black Rock"!

[MoMerks]

[edavisdavis]

[tumamaenbolas78]

ANAHEIM 

[URANUSWORLDSHAKING]

THIS JAM IS DA BOMB ALL-TIME...KIND OF GREW UP LISTENIN TO DIS FAVORITE STREETS 2 DIRTROADS, HAHAHA!!

[megahector167]

i dont hate african americans black and brown need to unite to go against the people who want to get rid off us.

[iop223]

love the guitar

[SEPALVIZION]

i'm Hispanic and dont hate African Americans. That's pretty ignorant. Enjoy the music everyone! West Side!

[greenly100]

Haaaa haaa Multiracial Roger he was mixed with alot of diffrent races. My mom would take me to Okmulgee where the blacks, indians and whites would bump this music! Holla!

[NewMexRaveR]

Huh i'm a chicano that was born in New Mexico and now i live in Mexico and i've always liked zapp & rogers and i also listen to alot of music made by african americans cuz they really now how to get down just like this jam for example

[maxcool123456789]

fucking nice! so soul! so electro! so fly! so bouncy!

[santacruznp]

Thats not all hispanics. Its a sad truth that prejudice is still around. Personally i miss the times when i was younger and had no idea was hate was. I love Zap and miss when these jams were on the radio.

True many hispanics have prejudice ways, but every race does.

People often forget that we are all part of the HUMAN race, and should just chill out and be friends, i dunno, great song though, mid 90's all day

[sandovaldanny1]

I bought this album when it first came out in 1981. I thought it was the most creative sound for it's time. Artists are still using his style in their own music. Most recently Lady Gaga. He was a 1 of a kind.

[ginmarie75]

I LOVED THIS ALBUM COVER! 2 CUTE!

[CC1796]

This is classic by African Americans for African Americans and anybody who appreciates fly music!! I'm from Southern Cali where Hispanics hate African Americans...It's amazing how they love our music though...So hypocritical!! Zapp for life!!

[15Chuy19]

@CC1796 its for mexicans and africans

[Tha704Hustle]

i know i can never understand why they hate but then copy our slang and listen to our music and even try to rap..pretty much following us but then try to act like they're better

[MrChistes]

@CC1796 You fucked up by saying hispanics hate african americans, yeah some do but not all of us hate you, so don't round us all up and say we hate blacks cuz we don't fool. be careful with your words becaue they can become true. you might make us change our mind.

[CC1796]

@MrChistes Trust me, if you change your minds, we won't lose sleep. So, continue to enjoy our music!

[melbalsan]

@CC1796 not all hispanics hate african americans in so cal

[melbalsan]

@CC1796 damn i wrote that comment B4 i read the ones below guess you had it comin for posting something stupid

[6BLAZE1T9]

@CC1796 Hey man you should come threw the nor*cal were the black nd brown get down us colord people should stick together! because the white folks just wants us to kill each other so they can take over the whole community but they cant...just cause sum certain latinos dont like blacks doesnt mean all latinos hate blacks one of my best friends is black and theres sum african americans that hate latinos to so theres a tie between both

[IAMFILKRIS]

@6BLAZE1T9 i'm white and i don't want you dead at all. Thats the sort of narrow minded shit that makes me sick. The U.S government might want you to kill each other, but not every member of the government is white. Fuck black and brown sticking toghether, Everyone needs to stick toghether because the rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer, it's not about race no more it's about wealth and poverty. i bet i live in just as bad conditions as you do if not worse, my area isfuckd!

[ExtruhKrizpee]

@IAMFILKRIS I'm pretty sure the yellows are close to group'n up with us

[hymnofashes]

@6BLAZE1T9 I'm white, and let me tell you both, the blacks and latinos have only one enemy here, and that is rich, white men. Poor and middle class whites are no threat to you.

[chey1112]

wrong, so wrong the nigger s are americas no the worlds entertainment

and you brown mexicans were once a people like me, but gave into the white and blacks bullshit . if you are white and care about coloured people , go out and by a gift for some poor coloured person who has the wrong idea about you, you fucks

[SouthSideLocox3]

@chey1112 wtf

[ExtruhKrizpee]

@SouthSideLocox3 do you know what he's saying?

[SouthSideLocox3]

@ExtruhKrizpee hes sayin hes on crack

[XSALVADOO3]

@6BLAZE1T9 IM FROM SUR CALIFAS AND IM COOL WITH BLACK HOMIES TO.

[559x831]

@6BLAZE1T9 and just the same not all whites want yall to kill each other off

but hey ignorance is just meet with more ignorance but fuck it idc

i stand my shit yall got yours i could give a fuck about a panzie ass burb bitch i could

give a fuck about yall stay up off mines im outta yours simple and good dont mind

my ass i wont mind yours

[Nconte1944]

@6BLAZE1T9 same thing for white people dude some white people hate blacks im white i dont hate black people dont think we all do cause some assholes dont like you ,im sick of these racist assholes makin the white race look bad damn it.

[TheUkrainianAmerican]

@6BLAZE1T9

lmao yes there is a dedicated comity of white men that do nothing that hold u down. lmao Americans complain to much try living in a dictatorship type government and see what real oppression is

[mafiaman479]

@6BLAZE1T9 not all white people are racist pricks, just certain few amigo.

[jookinmus]

@mafiaman479 I'd like to know what your definition of "few" is. There are millions of white racists, just as there are millions of other racists who are not white. Just consider all of the white supremacists groups, skinheads, KKK, and all the other ones. Here is the real truth--To say that there are only a "certain few" (racists) is a contributing part of the problem. Its time to STOP turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to these HUGE (not few) social sicknesses!!

[dreghorn007]

@6BLAZE1T9 you're being very racists to caucasians

[wwejcena54]

all about zapp and roger!!!

[chetmf]

If you grew up mexican american or black in S.Cal OR N.Cal you'd know since elementry homie.

[irishleo1980]

[15Chuy19]

@irishleo1980 fuckin puta i am in northern califas born in southern califas. fuckin levas like u get gassed everyday and i kick dumbasses like u every time

[B2De]

if you knew anything about anything, don't matter where you reside, grew up, or w/e....zapp & roger have always been mad inspiration to all folk that has soul and aint afraid to let it shine, one way or the other that is.....

[weathered79]

love the album cover

[dee62383]

Random factoid: According to IMDB, in the movie Napoleon Dynamite, this is the song playing in the car when the two hispanic men (Pedro's cousins) pick up Napoleon and take him to the dance. I've always wondered what song that was!

[zacatetas]

If you grew up mexican american or black in S.Cal you'd know since elementry

[arequipa1]

[toberborgan1]

[Kittyslasher69]

[MrShakbo]

How did Zapp make those bass lines. What synths did they use. Is there a soft synth I can use to get that sound? I have a preset on my synth that comes close to the sound but not quite. Any tips?

[StanSaquii]

Mexicans love this just as much as Blacks. Who do you think created the lowrider? This was the type of music to roll in your lowrider in.
