Everytime I hear Kenya Barris speak I want to send him an invitation to my African American Studies course. He lacks a second level thought to his analysis. I appreciate Erbo helping give more depth to Barris's analysis to black life and culture.. More conversations are indeed needed, but some people need to listen to listen more and converse less.
Ebro is so deep!!!! I can tell that he has taken time to understand racial dynamics on many levels. It can't ever be fully understood but we must keep trying to learn more.
Something that I never understood was that why people were hating on him just for no reason!
deep is surface level? Hes Jewish thats why he has his job. FOH. You're prob a bot paid for by Hot97 to make look better. BotFarms.
This is such a needed conversation…please continue sharing all the perspectives offered in this discussion. My teen and young adult mix kids need to hear all of this! Thank you guys!
Reparations is a more needed conversation
@@TopHour Agreed!
Ebro did a great job at capturing some deep feelings we have.
Kenya said Coretta Scott King was sitting in the back of the bus... but meant Rosa Parks... 🤣🤣🤣 I'm crying!!!
Kenya needs to brush up on, not only Kenyan History but black Civil Rights. lol
I came lookin for this comment 😂
He said what he meant> He actually doesn't know much of the true history. He uses the black community for his cash acquisitions and negotiates with the white establishment, who assume he must be the black genius.
I will say Ebro has way more intelligent conversation than Charlamagne or Envy; I've never stopped listening or unsubscribed but Ebro's right that not enough people come to this show, which is a shame! I don't watch the other show for the host, solely for the guest...while this show, I'm interested in what Ebro and sometimes Rosenberg have to say.
Ebro can't touch CMTG
Facts
Anytime Char has a serious convo with a guest, he always says some goofy ish that kills the whole vibe.
When CTG is not busy being a comedian and he really gets into deep convos that are thought provoking with unique perspectives
CTG is self absorbed while babbling for republican as he “contracted” to do while convincing fellas that he’s for ‘da culture.
Wowwwww!! I am so impressed at how well versed Ebro is during this interview!! Big fan of Kenya Barris!!! We must keep the conversation going!!!
Why do we always say "black and brown"...is brown supposed to include latin ppl? Why do we do this; they literally NEVER include us in their talking points when they're referencing their community, I'll never understand why we simp for ppl that tell you over and over they want no parts of you?!!
Facts
There are black latin people so i think when people say black and brown, they are saying African American and Afro Latinos.
Yes, it includes y’all. We all come from Africa. -TED Talk.
@Foulin Iverson We look so weak, if ppl could visit South America and see how they treat their own black citizens, they would stop including them.
@@janeli4616 I promise you that's not what they mean, they include all Latin. Quite frankly if they are black and identify as such I don't see the need to differentiate...get it?? Caribbean, African are included but if you're born in south America you need to be called "brown"...stop it!!!
May more people of substance come to this platform
I enjoyed this interview. A lot of conversations need to be have. Kenya brought up many great topics.
Very thoughtful, intelligent conversation. This is what we need in our community come together, and reason we might not have the same perspective, but we are having a dialogue or discussion.💯☺️
Thanks for the very interesting conversation guys, looking forward to watching "You People" LOL...on the big screen or wherever it becomes available to view. I have been rocking with Kenya's shows and projects since i found out about him years ago. Kudo's to you guys for diving in. Peace to Ebro, Laura and Rosenberg.
I MEAN EBRO WHY SOME PEOPLE USED TO HATE ON YOU JUST FOR NO REASON!
I NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHY THEY NEVER ACKNOWLEDGED YOUR INTELLIGENCE!
AND ROSENBERG, SHANI AND EVERYBODY ELSE ON THE SHOW ARE SUCH GREAT PEOPLE MAN!
HOT 97 LET'S GO!
Are you guys having your views suppressed by TH-cam? I don’t understand why your interviews are in the 10s of thousands and the “other guys” are in the 100s? Loved this interview and could listen to Kenya all day! Bring back BlackAF!
I love that these two didn’t shut each other down and heard each other out. I love conversations like this.
I feel the passion in what Ebro is saying.
Amazing interview!
I just watched “You People” and it was one of the first Netflix movie I’ve enjoyed in a while.
Great conversation
I was interested to see what energy Ebro would bring. I must say he didn’t disappoint. I will Keep my thoughts to myself about Mr. Barris and focus on the important issues. The conversation “talk” is always going to be had with intellectual sensitive individuals. And it was said and I completely concur and see it daily. The individuals that need the information from the “talk” aren’t interested in the talk and don’t give a damn about our plight in America.
I enjoyed You People, definitely a convo starter.
I like what Rosenberg said. He said he does the drop out because he doesn’t feel comfortable saying it. I’m black and feel the exact same way.
Talking sh#t is a love language for black people.
Great convo
All facts Ebro, thanks for your perspective 🙏🏽
It was a lots of people that used hate on him though! I mean just for no reason!
Just as I expected...a whole conversation of how we can get yt ppl to feel sorry for black folks. Why would black ppl be attracted to a subservient convo like that? Kenya really revealed himself during this interview....
Yes absolutely. Its the erasure of black fts and Kenya does it as well and normalizes it
Fts? Sorry to ask....
@@TrustinHewhoknows i think they mean features like films
Great conversation here.
THANK YOU, EBRO!!
Ppl hate the truth and seemingly would rather be lied to
I feel you Ebro!
Just subscribed due to this convo
"Oppression Olympics" is PERFECT!!! The scene at the dinner table where Julia's character is accused of comparing the Holocaust to Chattel Slavery...TOTALLY ON-POINT!!! Who suffered more...
This conversation was much needed and amazing -especially on the “N” Word!
What is the timestamp for the “n” word?
I would have never thought to compare the two. They have nothing to do with each other. There's knowledge being had and discussed in both spaces
Good Talk.
Toxic behavior - disfunctional way of fearing someone’s going to leave you when they grow/do better for themselves - that they’re not OURS anymore, that’s a great point. The community and culture is still important we don’t want to be forgotten by our hero’s & leaders the people we look like and look up to and honestly who got there because of us/black people who saw something in them and we rooted for them just for them to turn their backs and “leave us” They don’t want to be apart of the toxicity they want peace too. Great points.
Ebro 👏🏽 excellent interview on your part.
Good Talk!!
Donald Glover tellin Rosenberg, "We just didnt beloeve you" is hahlarious! And great!
We all on this earth should respect each other - period!!
However yes I agree we should have scenarios of uncomfortability in certain situations and should watch what we say.
Oh by the way I have never sat in the back of the bus ever subconsciously or consciously- never saw it as “cool” hell I don’t even sit in the back of a plane!
Great conversation but when do we get pass having to have these conversations?
I guess never!!!
Bi-racial privilege having this conversation without one Black persons input.
You sound ignorant!! You are not the arbiter of blackness!! If you cant pass for white, then you are Black, period!! You would never know that Ebro nor Kenya were biracial based on how they look. I highly doubt that you are 100% Black. None of us are. Take a DNA test and you will find that you are multiethnic like most Black people are in America due to slavery. Technically most DOBAS are all mixed. Race is a social construct that was made up by some white people that we've been conditoned to accept.
@@2manystories2tell43 Why so angry they are half white and half black which equals bi- racial. Mixed and bi- racial are not the same thing. Yes race is a social construct made up by white people and they are they ones
aren't
I respect Ebro for this I never knew that about him
Where can I get the Kyrie shirt the engineer was wearing?
Big facts
Rosenberg capping he definitely said it 😂😂😂😂
Ebro this is a dope interview but you gotta let your other hosts jump in cleanly without taking back over so quick.
It’s interesting to me that Netflix chose the name “you people”
I love Lauren London but casting a biracial person to play a character that should be black and the plot is about their blackness and how it plays out in a biracial relationship is tone deaf
And she literally didn’t look like either parent.
Sweet Jesus there’s no pleasing some folks 😂
Played the role perfectly.
@@anotherpointofview222 she didn’t even bother to act.
I thought “You People” was really good. It had a lot more substance than I’d initially expected it to. Very well done.
I agree with Ebro a thousand percent.
There's a lot of light skin basketball players in the NBA it used to be just dark skins.
No, not "light skin". You seem to have a mental block that prevents you from verbalizing their actual racial heritage & identity, which is "mixed-race". Not "light skin". Say it right. We are racially different. Embrace & recognize the truth of that.
So this movie is like ‘Guess Who’ with Bernie Mac
it's like 'guess who's coming to dinner' with sidney poitier. you need to go further back.
Ebro the goat
Old Man Ebro is an intellectual.
"I tried to pitch a movie about keeping sidepieces in order to Kenya but he wasn't feeling it"
I can always count on TK to have the best comment on TH-cam 😂
Yo TK you are amazing. My associates have film and music endeavors globally. Can I get you directly or do I have to go through the mgr, agent, Jesus, and Osiris?
Wheres the timestamp!?
I loved You People.
The best thing about the movie is that everyone cringes equally.
The only time I’ve ever agreed with Ebro
Hey Ron DeSantis, it’s Rosa Parks 😂😂
Kenya sayin he thinks all white people say the N word while rapping along blew my mind! Like white people use the word all the rime except when their around black people.. Is that how most black people feel? I'm mixed but look more white and I can honestly say I've only heard that word said allowed by a white person twice, and I know its twice because even in a room of white people everyone was like WHOA!
He is wrong. I have yt friends that do not use the N word. Kenya is good on some subject but bad on others.
If Eddie is in it... I'm watching
good looking ebro.
I love Ebro.
We do live in a society that thrives on toxicity and definitely for the sake of capitalism...
We must deal with our problems.
It's sad that inherently believe people are going to leave once they succeed, it does go deep.
The western world is so depressing I swear.
Yes, it does go deep. The "Sunken Place."
Your comment reminded me of Tina Turner in her relationship with Ike. The part where she felt bound to not leave him. Out of love and loyalty. In the face of the toxicity. Allegedly because people always left him as they became successful with him.
Hmm I’m seeing a lot of comments big upping Ebro in this interview. I think he’s over talking his guest a bit. I think he should maybe get a quick point out, then fall back and let the guest speak. Just my two cents.
That movie is hilarious
Fast forward Nia Long and Eddie Murphy had a mixed daughter in the movie. While her tone was addressed in the movie, it felt disingenuous. If you knew well enough to address it then you knew the casting choice was questionable.
And Eddie playing a revolutionary Muslim whilst being with a white woman in real life 🙄🙄🙄
Say it EBRO! people dont want to do the work! YET! it is taxing on us that are doing the work.
I appreciate you elucidating issues in the media & society writ large pertaining to mixed-race people (Mulattos to be specific). More mixed-race, mixed-part-black, & Mulatto-specific content, please.
Ebro is so important for the culture. He needs to get more flowers!
definitely !!
Nah this was Ebro’s interview 😂
Great conversation -- Ebro and Rosenberg held it down. I love & respect Kenya, but was waffling on the N-word point. I can see him giving his white friends an "N-word pass" if it's in a song.
People will always have something to say, but the work should speak for itself. Make modern-day versions of good black films and tv shows like the late 80s and 90s. I will also say that other ethnic groups don't show up for black Americans. An entire lineage of US chattel Slavery descendants have been living a genocide in their country, and the history data and facts are being ignored.
You coulda almost believe they talking about something.
@39:56--the Ta-Nehisi Coates video is from a book tour hosted by Random House, th-cam.com/video/QO15S3WC9pg/w-d-xo.html
Ebro could be a leader if he wanted to..in my opinion
I appreciate you Kenya! I enjoy your movies and shows. You could be making shows about white people, so I appreciate the effort.
Ebro ate.
Looks like Ebro starts with seeing the humanity & magic of black folk...then moves forward.
I totally agree with Ebro's points on the usage of the N-word. It's not up to Black people to make room for them, especially when they are constantly raising ignorant racist kids.
As a white person, I can 100% corroborate that I'm totally comfortable with Black people saying the full n-word if they want (or not saying it if they don't want to). But I absolutely can't say it even when I'm alone, it feels so deeply wrong because I was raised to believe it was terrible and the more history you learn, the more terrible it seems. And honestly, why is it such a sacrifice to just not say ONE word? White people getting all angry about some "double standard" when Black people say it? It's really absurd to me. Same with blackface. Just don't. The end.
Rachel no one asking you..go listen to rock and country music ...we gave that genre to yall after we made it ...get off Black channels ..just bekuz you get Blk Dik dont give you write to speak !
I just want him to bring back back af
9:48 really? First time I heard that
Great interview. Ebro is a very necessary voice for the enrichment of black culture.
Good example Kenya, but most are not singing that Trinidad James song anymore
This dropout convo is cracking me up
This man lost all cred tahmbout Coretta in the back of the bus 😂 . Been tolerating west coast yt for too long my g. Great movie though
There is a guy wearing a Nas t-shirt
The timing was off….not that everything that happened to YE and Kyrie was unfair or out right wrong. But, I digress
Nobody on here is black. Racial origins African yes black no especially for these two
Bi racial is a term that means you can fit into two racial groups undetected
Did they discuss you people.
It's interesting that no1 brought up how Eddie panders to black women but is with WHITE WOMEN.
Also Jonah is Jewish and is white. Good lord
please I don't wanna watch another thing with Kenya Barris as director.
Yes we can put things they candy say. They put obstacles in front of us that we couldn’t go, do or say for centuries. They made us uncomfortable, why can’t they be. WEVE BEEN AND STILL ARE BEING CENSORED WHY CANT THEY BE.
TH-cam only gives the option to dislike the video…. So i have to like comments instead.
He’s from Inglewood heller
We don’t need leaders we need ethicists
THE INTERNET IS NOT REAL LIFE
Malcolm Gladwell is a celebrity of some sorts
This guy kenya is color struck. It’s annoying watching him run around questions and Ebro kissing his ass . Just own it.
What does this even mean? 😂
Let ppl enjoy Tubi
