Caper - How Would You Like To Be Me (Official Video)

[AyshahPearson]

I lol'd at the end when his mates grooved to the music, despite the lyrics! Cool song though, very creative.

[MKNZMixtape]

Good song. A lot of things that need to be said. If anything, by getting these racist comments u are getting these racists to show their true colours. This shows racism is still a major issue in this country at a public level, not just being concealed

[ela12z]

Tell em boii

[MrNanaclay]

well done bruz hit the nail on the head, and all you racist small minded idiots if you dont like Aboriginals well GET OUT OF OUR LAND.

Colin awsome song mate i love the way u speak from the heart keep up the great work bro.

[SerotoninRush]

Wow a lot of selfish deniers commenting right here including Davar6969 and MrCedricDog. This is how rap should be,

[Davar6969]

I'm sorry but if you hate the white man so much, why do just about all of you accept the handouts and benefits that they give? Free medicare, free higher education, welfare money, the list goes on. I know you're an oppressed people, but if you have so much resentment towards white people, don't accept the benefits. If you're so proud of you're culture and fear its being destroyed, leave the cities and return to the bush and reinvigorate it. Australia has plenty of room

[SerotoninRush]

@Davar6969 Sorry mate your comment is stupid. They have no choice but to accept the handout. And your comment about returning to the bush is just plain fucking stupid. But i bet racists like you would like that..... IF some people had their way in this country they would gladly kill all the Aboriginals like Alexander Downers great grandfather did....

[Davar6969]

@SerotoninRush So I'm racist because I believe aboriginals should return to their traditional culture? And I'm also racist because I believe they shouldn't be given handouts based on the colour of their skin? We're in a country that openly acknowledges that they're inferior because government believes they need as much help as possible to make themselves equal to the rest of us. Look at yourself before calling other people racist. I'm sure Noel Pearson would agree with me

[darahmusic]

@Davar6969 you are an idiot. Nothing that you said is accurate. Firstly, Medicare is free for all Australians. Second, higher education is not free for anyone, Aborigines pay the same higher education fees as everyone else. Third, there are more white people on welfare in Australia than any other group of people. Four, the cities, farms and land mines are built on Aboriginal land. Five, freehold ownership of bushlands and waterways is currently denied to Aboriginal people. Wake up to yourself

[Davar6969]

@darahmusic Aboriginals receive priority medical attention to all other ethnic groups. Aboriginals receive scholarships if they show enough interest in higher education. There are more white people on welfare because white people are the dominant ethnic group in Australia, retard. Aboriginals have been given back approximately 17% of their land back and are now selling it back to mining companies for millions

[MrCedricDog]

This is so embarrassing

[dadaddymak]

[yesclairest]

[joanna081959]

[aussiemel]

[MrCaper79]

Request this video on 'Rage' through it's website and request the song on 'Triple J' requests.

[TaliaAshley08]

Love It... !

[yabruzz]

Well done brutha...hopefully you are the catalyst for more of this stuff getting out there. Saturate the market bruzz...they need to hear it. I don't like rap (actually i hate it) but i could listen to this quite easily coz it is a shared story. I'm not a pessimist but i don't think it will change the colour of some peoples necks. Racist, bigoted little people will never change their ways...not in this Cuntry! Always was and always will be black land!

[RavenTheOne1]

@yabruzz the always black land part sounded racist so ure no different

[tigerscriber]

Nice one son, deserves to be top ten. Never give up the fight. White is not the oppressor, it's capitalism, the ruling class and culture

[TannerTheCreator]

Gnarly

[DellafromTAS]

WOW DEADLY SONG..... will be sharing with my community down here in Tasmania.

Love it, every word spoken the truth!!!!!

[buddee21]

This is a non offensive song. A great song a great young man, sadly what he say's is still happening. I am a white fella & hate to hear such racist words & when it comes to Indigenous people there is so much stigma,all the thing he raises in this song is alive & sadly all to plain in this land. Respect & knowledge like this can be the best outcome.

[maryannefrail]

great to hear such powerful words put together in a song...mean while raps r not meant to rhyme @Iach1an1 if you was a tru fan of rap then you would know this...i heard about this thru my legal centre so i had to come and find it....up ya Caper...good going braz...i sent it to the radio station i use to work at...93.7fm koori radio...

[lach1an1]

this is shit. most of it doesnt rhyme, and when it does the lyrics and structure are horrible. "he doesnt like picking up abbos, what the hell. abbos." good work caper, you rhymed abbos with abbos.

[philhahn]

@lach1an1 I know this is a big step up for you from cat in the hat but theres a message behind his song n i think that's the main point, regardless of whether it ryhmes or not....

[SarahConnerArms]

Great song! Glad it got the publicity of being banned from facebook or I never would have heard it!

[Falconpunch2]

album shauld be called paint it white (no offense intnded)

[AlexTrup]

My fiancee is aboriginal Taiwanese (i.e. not the ethnic Chinese that now dominate the island), and they face very similar racial stereotyping. The lyrics really echo our experiences - like taxi driver comments etc. Keep doing what you're doing.

[MichaeIWesten]

Read the news and came searching this song. Nice flow and lyrics

[TheCarlosrox1991]

What the hell? banned on Facebook? Why? What is wrong with it?, Can the public have their choice of music o they telling us what we should or shouldn't listen.? You kidding me if that is true, I really think that there's something wrong with society.

Why can't we enjoy a song made in Australia? Bring it back now!

[TheDingoNews]

Excellent song, Caper. Heard this song was banned from Facebook in recent days. Anyone know why?

[adammutchler]

@TheDingoNews facebook and youtube are a bunch of algorithms. That's the problem. I have a feeling a handful of people objected to some language and flagged it and the automated system just banned it as the default response. Same thing happens with youtube despite them saying some real person reviews flagged videos. I don't buy it.

[rynzie93]

I know how you feel Caper, im a half cast aboriginal with fair skin and have heard racist comments said in front of me so this song relates to me 100% i get so angry but let it go cause i dont waste my time with violence, you've done australia a service by making this song. I too am an aspiring rap artist and hope to make it big for my people one day. Well done

[1kersha]

well said love the song cause its so true and people needs to start to relise that thats still whats going on in and around todays society thumbs up to u well done and what a great job.

[lauratew]

I think your song is great. Not offensive, except perhaps for people who have been offensive bigots themselves. You seem so angry and sad; I hope you find some peace as you express yourself and tell this truth.

[bababangali]

Well done! Your message is universal - as true in Australia as it is in the US, India or Europe.

[linnyack]

Great song! For those who say he doesnt look aboriginal, how ignorant are you! Your look doesnt reflect your heritage, what does a french or german person look like!The guy who thinks white man is the boss, think again you only think you are in your white man world IGNORANT PIG! Fantastic work Caper using your Artistic abilities to get the word out in the community about YOUR OWN experiences. Some of the comments on here show racism is still very much alive in this country.

[drpbgnz]

An excellent song! well done! Great message!

[TheCarlosrox1991]

Yeah! I like this song, It's so straight to the point. Talented singer and there is not offensive stuff about the song.Straight from the heart.Good on you MATE!

i WISH TO HEAR MORE OF YOUR MUSIC IN RADIO AND TELEVISION.

[philhahn]

@TheCarlosrox1991 shits me how ppl miss the context...

[crazedmoose1]

@TheCarlosrox1991 GAMMON

[orangegumbos]

One thing I hate is racism, but unfortunately it will always exist, for as long as stupidity and ignorance exists. People can still do their part to minimize it in the future though.

[hedonism13]

Great song, love it.

[darwin2305]

Once again well done Colin. Australia is a better place because of people like you.

[darwin2305]

Well done Colin. A catchy rap that has a powerful message. You are obviously a strong young man who who wants to make a difference for your people. All the best for your endeavours. I hope your courage will also see your music career advanced. I teach a class of indigenous students up in Darwin and will be sharing this clip with them. I hope it encourages them to speak out against injustice and confirm to them that violence is not the way to sort out difficulties.

[spunkafied2003]

Can't believe how people still talk about percentages of what race someone has in them like they are stuck in the 50's...get over it it don't make racism right..don't matter where you come from don't be a prick

[CALO1978]

some of this song relates to all minorities in Australia! Great job bro.

[naraytis]

Dude. I don't agree with your message, but damn it's a catchy little tune. And more credit to you for getting out and doing something constructive and not falling into the whole American Rap style which a lot of people would do.

[twilliams1985]

@naraytis- 'don't agree with your message'? What about the idea that racism is wrong and should be spoken out against do you not agree with?

[TruBlu1901]

@naraytis its called aussie hip-hop bro.. its actually pretty big, its all about day to day life not the american gangster sex drugs and guns style. but this guy kinda sounds american for some reason

search PEZ heavenly.. you'll love it i bet

[rynzie93]

@TruBlu1901 yeah he actually has a canadian accent, its freaky :) btw i love PEZ's heavenly

[clairmatinaustralia]

LOL, gotta love it, don't think there's much aboriginal in him!

[wannasurf1]

nigger

[catgoatmouse]

neat production brother and story rhyme. peace from me.

[RussellThePumpkin]

Lol. He doesn't even bother with album art on his iPod. What a loser.

[Moutro2]

All the best! 

[jason4359]

How bout this rap

For all u niggers i dont give a toss

Just remember the white man is your boss

haha

[jibmonkey1]

@jason4359

Douchebag.

[elli0266]

@jason4359 Whatever bogan!!! Usually I'd be offended but I can tell you are incredibly stupid so I'm just gonna laugh at you. ha ha ha back at ya!!!

[buddee21]

@jason4359 you are disgusting & shouldn't be let out of your box. post note on your box"RACIST BIGOT HERE"No room for morons like you.

[rob091971]

Just brilliant mate. You have effectively high-lighted the ignorance and contempt of many Australians, including myself, who don't stop to consider what it is like to be an Aborigine of any skin colour living in this country. I will try harder to remind myself and others of the hurt and unnecessary pain that racist remarks cause.

[RobynTg71]

WOW!! What a great song. I can identify quite a lot with it. As a transgendered person I get discriminated against almost daily.

In a perfect world there would be no discrimination based on the colour of your skin, your gender or your sexual orientation. Hopefully we can get close to that perfect world one day....

PS: The moment I saw it, I could spot some of the Radelaide locations this was filmed at.....

Posted on reddit btw.... this song should be heard by everyone...

[Bontai69]

Racism what a joke, it's neutral both sides commit it. The song pretty average good try though.

[woodypecker74]

This clip is fantastic, I saw an article on it in our Herald Sun in Victoria, and just had to view it. There is way too much racism on Aborigines in Australia. I know of a number of people who Aboriginal and make me proud to be an Aussie. Keep up the fantastic work Caper and get the message out there

[shlongey]

Good on you, but why the American accent???

[PicnicSociety]

keep fighting the good fight brother - gold!

[sexbomb770]

Love it !!!! take a stand on behalf of those too scared to speak up and B heard !!!!!

got my vote !!!!!! Xxxxxxxxxxx

[MrDefiance000]

great stuff caper!!!!!!!

[bardosland]

I agree with Bob this song sucks balls.

[BBobFrankk]

OK, racism is bad. We know this. The music is terrible though, and Caper is talentless.

[rozysparrow]

he doesnt even look that aboriginal..

[elli0266]

@rozysparrow I was born and brought up in Australia, have a parent who was born n brought up in Australia and is white. On the other side, they are not white but have happily accepted the culture of Australia and celebrate it every year like everybody else. Yet I still get the comments... what country are you from despite the fact that I speak with the same accent as every other Australian! How ignorant!!!! What you look like does not equal what your heritage necessarily is!!

[ollieraison]

nice job man. Racism is prominent in Aus. But the majority think that because they are jokey about it, it doesnt count. Sad.

[mrgreenteajapan]

good work. I don't like rap and thought you were being a "poor me" type but changed my mind.

[qewbert]

great song and video :) keep up the good work!

[BlackListOrgAU]

Awesome video Caper!

[bornskippy]

good stuff. 

[fuzzyillogic]

Thumbs up! An important message, powerful lyrics and well presented.

[marysamantha]

Awesome Vid, keep up the great work. Cant wait to hear the album!

[bawnersaurus]

I really really like the mesaage in your words and story...its a great theme and well done on being brave enough to say it. Hopefully it reaches the right ears and is respected.

Im not a fan of your voice or rap style tho.

Respects and keep up the good work.

[jgentle84]

Awesome Vid, looking forward to the 'Eyes' Vid too!!!! Keep up the good work!! :)
