And Yayo is the Hamburglar

Interesting quote from Game, this afternoon on Hot 97: "It's McDonald's. Dre owns the Mcdonald's, Em is the manager, I work the fries, 50 Cent does the burgers, we sell a happy meal and the kid goes home happy." (wonder if Mcdonald's is sending him a check now)

It's painful hearing Hot's jocks struggle to feign excitement about these b-list Summer Jam performers they're announcing.. "YOOOO, CIARAAA!!?!??? SAY WORD, SON SHE IS GONNA RIP THAT STAGE!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!"

Which is not to knock Hot per se, at any commercial outlet you're gonna have to sacrifice your dignity sooner later, pretending to be geeked about some product that nobody with half a brain could possibly be so excited for. Thank Jebus I work at WBAI..

----------------------

And in case you thought Hot 97 (or hip-hop radio in general) had a monopoly on stupidity, check these bozos out. Meanwhile the backlash against Hot still isn't done, with NY State Comptroller Alan Hevesi speaking up now. Also, Dan Charnas posted the next installment of his take on things.

Seem like more racist radio. This time from New Jersey...

Transcript of "The Jersey Guys" on the Edison Mayoral race on NJ 101.5

Below is a partial transcript of "The Jersey Guys" Radio show on April 25, 2005
Craig Carton and Ray Rossi
http://www.nj1015.com
New Jersey 101.5 FM Radio PO Box 5698 Trenton, NJ 08638

[Continued]

Craig Carton: "Would you really vote for someone named Jun Choi [said in fast-paced, high-pitched, squeaky voice]?"

[Continued]

Craig Carton: I�m using Jun Choi [said in fast-paced, high-pitched, squeaky voice] as an example of a larger problem.

Ray Rossi: and you know�

Carton: We�re forgetting the fact that we�re Americans.

Rossi : You know that he�s going to get the� whatever that vote is

Carton : And here�s the bottom line... no specific minority group or foreign group should ever ever dictate the outcome of an American election. I don�t care if the Chinese population in Edison has quadrupled in the last year, Chinese should never dictate the outcome of an election, Americans should.

Rossi: Americans should, exactly

Craig : And it�s offensive to me� not that I have anything against uh Asians�I really don�t� i don�t like the fact that they crowd the goddamn black jack tables in Atlantic City with their little chain smoking and little pocket protectors..

Rossi: Now now now..that�s an issue with me..

Carton: I�m just saying, now that�s all Asians, not just Koreans�you know� you got Pai-Gaw poker playing.

Carton: My point is on a much larger stand..

Rossi: I understand� but you see you had to put that out there�

Carton: We�re bending over backwards to cater to fringe groups of people and I don�t like it!

Rossi: As long as we understand where you�re coming from� with the, uh poker table group...

Carton: Well go to AC for one week and try and get a table� �ching chong, ching chong, ching chong [Mimics Chinese accent..] hehe you hit it on 17 you stupid bitch� the dealer�s got a 5..im holding an 18�what�re you hitting for� you know? They do it all day and night�they got their little beady pocketbooks with the little beads on it� they take out wads of 100s� ching chong ching chong [accent] they don�t know how to play the game� eh, honey i got a 13 and I�m playing against a 6�

Rossi: Hehe, their money is green too!

[Laughter]

Carton: There should be like Asian-only rooms in casinos� but just to be fair, I have nothing against them�

Rossi: No, of course not

[laughter]

Carton: Very good people� very nice people...

[Commercial Break]

Carton: Asian Americans factoring in the Edison race, Korean native and mayor both court the growing segment� uh I�ve said it about the Arabs about 4 months ago, I�ve said it about uh� you name a group that�s suddenly important in politics, other than Americans as a whole and I got a problem with it� I�m not nitpicking any one specific group... I don�t like� like when Corzine came out and said�I�m counting on the Arab community to get me elected� right then and there you lost my vote!

Rossi: Well, but� you see what it is�

Carton: He was over at the Nordic lodge of Rhode Island� cuz I go to this place where its like 60 bucks for all you can eat� and I thought he was lying to me

[Unrelated Topic]

Caller: Good, hi are you guys?

Carton: Doing good, babe.

Caller: It�s government for the people of the people and by the people and as long as you guys became American citizens and now have the right to vote, why not have them vote for someone who they feel comfortable with and will take care of their issues�

Carton: Well� I�m glad you called with that� god-forsaken disgusting liberal viewpoint, uh mickey�

Caller: I�m not a liberal at all� it�s by the constitution of New Jersey�

Carton: Well, you are a liberal by definition� by definition you are a liberal�.if they�re here legally and they�re Americans, I think they ought to vote for� [mocking falsetto voice] no no no�that�s liberal by definition� so let me explain to you what the problem is with it mickey so you can be a little bit brighter at the dinner table tonight, ok?

Caller: Ok

Carton: They are Americans, they have every right to vote. I will never deny them that, you know my grandparents came over here, they wound up with the right to vote and they�re very proud of it� same with Ray�s and most of our listeners�� they also have the right to run once they become Americans, and I don�t begrudge them that either, my problem is this: when we start focusing our campaigns on the minority of people and not the majority of people, I find that to be problematic� anybody running for office, whether it�s the Mayor of Edison or the Governor of New jersey, the focus should be what�s good for the breadth of people, what�s good for everybody, and its obnoxious to me, although I understand it�s a business, and its how you can get elected, if you say out loud, well if I can simply get the Asian vote I can win the election..

Rossi: Now that�s what it is�

Carton: And that�s what problematic to me� much as like we give DMV exams in Spanish, and French, and in Swahili, we�re getting away from what our core is and that is America..

Rossi: Which is true�

Carton: And I�m troubled by it� and I don�t wanna hear a candidate, whether they�re Chinese, or white, or black, saying oh if I can only get the Chinese vote I can win� well what about me? I�m� see� I�m the average guy, that�s why we�re successful, Ray and I represent the average guy in NJ, blue collar white people�

Rossi: There you go.

Carton: And no one gives a damn about us anymore�

Rossi: That�s right.

Carton: And if we cry about it� you know what�s brought up? Slavery... or if we cry about it� well you know, ching chong, ching chong [Mimics Chinese accent] you bombed us [Chinese accent] you know? The fact is, I don�t care if whites are a minority, it doesn�t matter to me, there�s no voice of the average blue collar white guy anymore, cuz all these politicians are worried about the fringe groups.

Rossi: Well that�s the thing�

Carton: God forbid you offend an Asian, really! And I hate it� god forbid that a politician was out here and offends Asians, or blacks, or old people� but at the end of

the day, I�m the guy that�s gonna get them elected�

Rossi: There you go.

Carton: And they don�t give a damn about me!

Rossi: Nope.

Carton: Well the second Thursday in May they will� cuz Ray and I are hosting the only in-state debate amongst at least the Republican candidates�

Rossi: That�s right

Carton: Almost all of them confirmed, is that right , C-dog?

C-Dog: That�s right.

Carton: It�ll be myself, Ray Rossi and Bob Ingle of the Gannet newspaper chain and every guy running for uh... governor on the Republican side will be here in studio because you know� we care! And were not gonna let these guys cater to minority groups simply cuz it makes them look good.

Rossi: Exactly

Carton: You have to cater to me, bitches.

Rossi: Hmmm, that�s it.

Carton: I�m the rain maker.

Rossi: Look at that, the rainmaker

Carton: Well, that�s a little cocky though

Rossi: Well, no, that�s a tad on the cocky tip but that�s alright, that�s okay.

Carton: It�s May 12th by the way, 4pm� If you�re running for governor, you�re invited but you have to go through C-dog cuz I don�t know want weedman showing up� �No, you guys said I was invited, I�m running� Typical keeping it brother� No he�ll wanna ask some of the questions� [Mimics voice]

Rossi: Right

[Laughter]

Carton: All right� here�s Sharon in Edison NJ on 101.5. How you doin� Sharon?

Caller: Hi, I love you

Carton: Thank you.

Caller: You just said it all, the last couple of � callers, I guess they don�t know that they live in America and we�re being overrun. I had just moved out of Edison because of what has happened in the past 10 years� Orientals are all along, the whole complete route 27. And Indians have taken over Edison in north and all over.

Carton: Damn Orientals and Indians.

Caller: I..i moved out..36 years I�ve lived in Edison

Carton: And what was the biggest problem you had with the Orientals and the Indians ?

Caller: I can�t handle them! There�s no American people anymore.

Carton: Eh..

Caller: There shoving us the hell out!

Carton: It�s like you�re a foreigner in your own country isn�t it?

Caller: You go to own store and you can�t even see American people, you don�t see our own kids, American kids, working in stores anymore�

Carton: Like the next time you see an American, you think you�ll probably hug him or high five him or something?

Caller: Oh, that�s why where I moved too, that�s all I have, thank god for now anyways.

Carton: Yeah I�m with you� Sharon, we�re just the voice of the people, and I appreciate your call.

Caller: Keep up the good work.

Carton: All right, you got it baby� I think the quote was damn �Orientals and Indians.�

[Child rendition of American anthem on and fades into background]

Carton: That�s right baby, who wrote this, a white guy did!

Carton: By the way, did you see the girl singing the national anthem in the Canadian/US hockey game over the weekend?

[Unrelated Topic]

Carton: Listen I love my country, I�ll never make any excuses for that� and I think the majority should be catered to, not the minority

Rossi: Correct That�s how I feel� ["America, The Beautiful" song on and fades into background]

[Commercial Break]

Carton: Alright, in Edison, this is just another example of us losing our own country�the uh� Asian American candidate "Jun Choi" [said in fast-paced, high-pitched, squeaky voice] and uh� he�s capitalizing on the rapid growth of the Asian community in Edison, but so is his uh� I guess so is his competitor�

Rossi: Well, his competitor is doing the same thing.

Carton: Spadoro says " I�ve got the Asians on lockdown."

Rossi: Right exactly

Carton: Now if I was an Asian I guess I don�t know I�d vote for the Asian. Well I mean haven�t you done that before?

Rossi: Who knows my needs better than�

Carton: Haven�t you?

Rossi: Yeah, I used to vote for the Italian�

Carton: You know what?

Carton: Yeah, thinking that his corrupt ways would benefit me in the long way run.

Rossi: So did I, when I didn�t know what the hell they stood for I just say (phh) go Italian.

Carton: Look how good that did us. Look at the hole we�re in now. Nice move jack ass thanks.

Rossi: Well what do you want me to tell ya, I tried.

Carton: You da one responsible for Florio

Notice how they take shots at Chinese, Indians, Blacks and others.

"Carton: And if we cry about it� you know what�s brought up? Slavery... or if we cry about it� well you know, ching chong, ching chong [Mimics Chinese accent] you bombed us [Chinese accent] you know? The fact is, I don�t care if whites are a minority, it doesn�t matter to me, there�s no voice of the average blue collar white guy anymore, cuz all these politicians are worried about the fringe groups.

Yes, that is already linked to in the body of my post :)

Posted by: Jay Smooth at April 28, 2005 05:21 PM

LOL, good look, Jay. I once wrote a post where I said that Em and Jimmy were the plantation owners, Dre was the H.N.I.C., and everyone else was working. I find Em to be so exploitative, and that makes the McDonald's metaphor apt, given that McDonald's is exploitative like that. And actually, I just posted about a new ad of theirs that seems mighty racist to me.

At this point, wouldn't you say that Em has more power than Dre? Dre gave Em his credibility and help make him, but Em is way beyond that now.

These dudes are ruining things for creative people. I saw (UNFORTUNATELY) Tony Yayo on 106 & Park/BET at the barber shop and his entire marketing scheme revolves around his prison experience. Homie looked into the screen and thanked his parole for working things out which allowed him to make this album. Camera to a crowd of teenage urban youth AND THEY WERE CHEERING. Sad sad sad.
