Looks like you had a cool budget.

[HopieSpitshard]

@Isolatedwaxrecords "Looks" is the operative term. ;-)

[BLACKCARGORECORDS]

Why does the "black man/rapper have to be the enemy in thE "YUMMY" video? The image of the black male as a coon, chasing after 'your" women was handed down by the white male that owns the music industry. We black males are recieving the hate as if we are the perpetrators of this image. Black males dont have enough power and control within the music, distribution and mass media outlets to really affect our image as a normal human being, rather than some women thirsty, loud mouth! insulting

[HopieSpitshard]

@BLACKCARGORECORDS Meanwhile, I understand your frustration. I am also a minority. I am Filipina and a female in an industry that is engulfed in misogyny. I see your gripe as something we can identify with one another on. Finally, I find it ironic that you posted this comment on my Trunk video, which also features a very talented black rapper, Donwill. Your feelings are valid, but feel they are misdirected.

@HopieSpitshard: Check out: DarkOneSun09 youtube channel. He is another African American man from the east coast from THE DMV [D.C,MARYLAND, VIRGINIA AREA] like me and he is exposing the ill treatment of African AMericans by hispanics and asians in the bay area. He has written a book on it exposing the reality of the bay area and warning black americans not to come here, which I back 100%. The blacks in the bay have been an enabler to you other races. U have not seen ur own racism!

[HopieSpitshard]

@BLACKCARGORECORDS I never authorized an interview, so I can assure you his book does not cover me.

fuck nickki minaj

this shit is real

YAY AREA STAND UP

[thisisflight]

thumbs up for the vintage!:)

[bikeshopchristopher]

@BLACKCARGORECORDS Dawg if you see it as 'the ill treatment of African Americans by hispanics and asians' without recognizing the conditions by which many hispanic and asian communities are oppressed in ways the black community isn't, then you need to check yourself. I'm not saying your not making a good point, but referring to blacks in the bay as 'enablers' of us 'other races' is some of the dumbest shit ever.

Love this tune! :D

[vitoaraiza]

Good work on the video and music. All well put together! keep it up. We need more music like this. Big thumbs up.

[imjohnfreeman]

@HopieSpitshard if i was smart id know what that means but for now ill have to take it to google

[dust9theninthpoet]

I remember kicking it with Hopie back in the day before she was known as Hopie and I'm totally impressed with her work ethic. This beat, rap and video is on point. Keep ripping it up Hopie!

[gamejunky420]

I love when there's positive females that don't exploit themselves for a buck. Unlike some other female rappers we might know, Lil Kim and that new white girl i don't even know her name. Kreasean idk.

[placentafaggot]

This is such a great track, sweet beat, fun flow, excellent overall I just cant stop listening.
