The-Dream feels “real black” right now.
In the wake of the Donald Sterling controversy, producer/artist The-Dream releases a new song titled, “Black.”
“Reminiscing back when Hilfiger made us feel like n*ggas, and that’s the kind of thing that sticks with ya/ I never felt this black, I’m feeling real black right now, real black right now/ And I’ll never be Mr. Madiba, but I’ma thank you the next time I see ya,” sings The-Dream.
At the end of video, The-Dream leaves a message for his fans:
“Black isn’t just a color. Black isn’t just a race anymore. It’s a feeling and a place from which one feels isolated by the world of the governing elite. Classism is the new racism. This is what black feels like.”
Take a listen to “Black” and watch the video below.
