cro cro is not speaking about black voting for blacks or indians voting for indians! listen carefully people> its how Manning's own people treated him! i personally never agreed with the hate this man was regarded with! we forgot the many things he did good as leader and was only throwing accusations! Nothing we blamed him for was ever proven and may i add he was never sent to prison! I for one have suffered many racial comments from indo citizens post May 24th! LOVE THIS SONG! IT IS TRUTH!!!!!

Many have said that Cro Cro is racist and that this song is also racist but if you listen closely you would hear that all he is saying is how Manning's people treat him was disgraceful. It is not a racist song. He is telling them in his own way that their behaviour towards Manning was disrespectful and disgraceful. I don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe it is a racist song because you are a racist, not Cro Cro.

Biggadg ur right, peace!

@imamigrane99 ironic is you calling him racist in the same sentence where your saying nigger... and wishing death upon him. WHAT SHOULD I WISH FOR YOU? never heard him wish death on somebody, call him what you want but your evidently no better.

@slickhbb1 It's tough when the Prime Minister has 2 blatant racist in key positions. Not wanting Afro-Trinidadians to attend or even work at a Hindu school. What having these two guys in those positions are telling is that what they are instigating are your government's policies, that the PP is not a party of all inclusion, and that they are still trying to divide and subdue one category of the population. I'm still appaulled by that entire situation.

@sonofelgar we might not c it in our time but if we teach our kids differently maybe the next generation will b saved from this nigger collie nonsense..

[sonofelgar]

@slickhbb1 It would be nice to live in a country where citizens party allegiance weren't generally divided among racial lines, but it isn't so, and it will never be so. If you voted for the party you best felt could lead T&T and not along racial lines, or because you felt Manning was ruining the country, I commend you. T&T would be a better place if many were like you.

[sonofelgar]

@slickhbb1 It won't reach there. TRINIDADIANS dont have that mentality, but If you are honest with yourself, you would admit that Indo-Trinidadians are clannish. They vote strictly along racial lines. If an Indian majority party wins they say "we are in power" or " It's we time now". Cro-Cro is just speaking the truth. I see statements by Sat "that there could be violence" as more of a concern. finally the education minister said something, but it was still meek..he needed to be put in his place

what is this ass really saying vote race???? indian vote indian and african vote african??? if i am white or Chinese who am i supposed to vote for???? this song is dumb makes no sense...smh

[slickhbb1]

@sonofelgar u c that what u said WE AFRICANS and INDIANS there are brilliant conniving people who feed of that sought of thinking...THEM & WE...and with the right situation such as "quote"AFRO TRINIS being locked up... can use it to persuade the mass to do horrible things such as commit Genocide...

[sonofelgar]

@slickhbb1 This song doesnt promote genocide you are crazy. He's talking about turncoat Africans .and there are plenty. now Afro Trinis are being locked up en masse via this ridiculous SOE, victimized at work and their children can't attend hindu schools. This is the change that was voted for. The media has a part to play too. They fed BS and enhanced public opinion that Manning was so bad for the country. Indians would never turn on Panday like he said. why do we africans turn on our people?
