- This is outrageously racist "coon" song is a classic example of what Rag-Time sounded like before 1900. Piano accompaniment is by either Frank P. Banta or Fred Hylands. Recorded May 26, 1899 on a Berliner disc record.
This was written by the popular black composer Irving Jones in 1899. - เพลง
19th century Obama diss track
The worst part is that a Black man, Irving Jones, wrote this song...
Coon was an acceptable word back in 1899 though.
He knew what was up
Don't tell him about 109 years in the future
One of my Go to songs on karaoke nights. 👍
when karaoke nights turn into karaoke fights. 😆
What?
@@catsupempire3920you heard him
It’s incredible how well preserved these old songs are!
What is you profile picture from?
It looks cool
@@DixieSchizo looks like evangelion but I might be wrong

He somehow was able to evision nosejobs and skin bleaching but could not fathom a hair straightener…
i choked when i heard that bruh like he knew but went "fck it"
MR OBAMA GET DOWN
Lmfao
lol nice to see others of my age here
prophetical lyrics
is this what people mean when they say they like "oldies"?
whats he got against racoons? theyre cute
@jewLUBEkneegahRsWHINE Raccoons sure cause lots of trouble!
@jewLUBEkneegahRsWHINE
LOL!
@jewLUBEkneegahRsWHINE
Yeah.
Me wondering why people still say "c**n" even though they know it is bad. C**n Plumbing.
@@Denavencian_Televisio first, it's not bad, second, something about freedom of speech or some such silliness.
Soundtrack to birth of a nation
Absolutely fantastic, who would have thought this prediction would become reality. Even Enoch Powell would never imagined such a thing.
This should be the Fox News theme song.
Well he did
@@MrZlathan3Run along Democrat. The adults are talking.
@@garyjackson3531 Hey without the angry white backlash from Obama's 8 years, Trump wouldn't be in control of the Republican party now.
@@MrZlathan3 Black people opposed Obama too. He was the worst president in history until segregationist Joe Biden came along. At least Jimmy Carter lived long enough to see, not one, but two raving psychotic Democrats worse than him. BTW, Trump got a big percentage of the Black vote in both 2016 and 2020. Any Republican will get even more in 2024. Now run along, the adults are talking.
Thanks for not taking it down TH-cam.
LOL. I'm surprised this song lasted on TH-cam.
The music was composed by a black guy???? 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
i know 💀 the self hate off the charts. crazier some black ppl did black face themselves
@@onesyphorusthey knew their culture growing up is when you realize the Coon show was pretty spot on to how they actually lived
@@onesyphoruswhat we see as racist today was quite normal back then
its quite normal now around the world in other places @@NoSaidNoah
@@onesyphorusthey did that to have money
Absolute banger
A pretty clear and well recorded Berliner Disk.
I wonder if Barack Obama heard this song.
I'm surprised the republicans didn't present it at their convention.
@cunard61 Except Democrats were the ones who fought the Civil War to keep slavery alive (they are still angry about losing) The "progressive" Democrats are the ones who came up with segregation, Jim Crow, eugenics, White Supremacy, the Ethnic Cleansing of the Black community through abortion, and the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
In fact, the current president, segregationist Joe Biden's mentor AND the Democrats top Senate Leader until his death in 2010, was a Grand Exalted Dragon of the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. Segregationist Joe Biden and Barack Obama gave the Klansman's eulogy and Democrats placed a statue of the Klan Leader in our Capitol Building in 2011.
Republicans oppose all the evil the Democrat Party represents.
Why would an Indonesian take offense to this?
Yeah it only half applies so who cares..
I really like the melody of the chorus 🎵 🎶
And now he’s head coach of the Commanders
I wonder if this song and melody and anything. About this song can be clearly connected. Fucking tune
Predicted the 2008 & 2012 election, as well as the “third term” through Biden in 2020.
Good gawd
It's a BOP!
Needs a bass line.
Judging 1899 from a 2020s perspective simply does not work. Many interviews with vocalists and musicians from that period have survived. Overwhelmingly, they saw it differently. The artists in general got along fine with each other. They saw a track such as this not as confrontational nor derogatory, but as good natured humor amongst one another.
Imagine a world so undistracted by BS that such a thing could be possible.
If you like this video you win a watermelon
LOL!
Plus, it’s comes with fried chicken and a cup of kool aid.
@injunweeb1973 free basketball too?😊
@@injunweeb1973purple drank
good i love watermelon!
This song is crazy ! 😊
Grotesque perversion of singing and technology.
What a great song, I love the humor!
I got here from the Sheet Music Singer rabbit hole. I must say, it’s a shame that so many of these early 20th century songs have such horribly racist lyrics because the melodies themselves are actually quite catchy. Ragtime is always a great sound. But again, shame about the lyrics...
Why is it a shame about the lyrics?
Because it's promoting hate against a group of people?
@@robokill387and we’re supposed to care, because…?
@@Michael_Sangworth cause caring makes the world more enjoyable for everyone. Minimizing suffering is generally thought to be a good thing. Caring minimizes suffering, minimizing suffering maximizes enjoyment!
So write new lyrics to the tune! It's public domain!
Dan W Quinn ought to be careful - he'll end up getting cancelled!
Black composer. Who would have thought.
Those terms were popular in the black community back then.

Mr. Obama, ily
This man could see the future. I wish I could go back back to the good old days when you could call a spade a spade.
preach it david!
It's just awful when you can't be openly racist, right? You poor guy.
You're right, let's bring it back right now! I'll start.
You're a mouth breathing moron.
@@BingBangByelearn to take a joke prude
Subtle David..very subtle😅
I take it this guy didnt belong to the naacp
So obsessed with blacks
i mean most of his songs are fire but 0:47 DAMN!
Looks like Mr Quinn was incredibly wrong
@SERVEewerIDOLonEWERknees ...and proved that Mr. Quinn was really talking out of his behind
He was 100% right & on you asshole.
yoo joe biden grandfather?! 🤯
This is available on The Dan W Quinn retrospective CD from Archeophone Records. I'm also very glad to not see any and inane and stupid comments regarding Obama.
BETA
y'know now that you mention it
President Obama's theme song?
SpookY and ashy. Great tune!!
A 👍 catchy song 😉
Lmfao based
Yes I do troll, I like to stroll healing this nation need to actually see what racism is!

i relisten to this song every now and again to see if it's still as bad as i remember it and yep
this makes "bake dat chicken pie" look tasteful
@Hal Emmerich I know what you are Hal.

He predicted it would come true, and it did 109 years later.
I’m surprised you are intelligent enough to count! I guess the Confederacy has a chance now.. oh wait..

Thanks Obama! 🤣
Thank you Jesus that Puerto Rico is never going to be a State
quite the funny man!
It's incredible how correct these old lyrics are
we don’t need white supremacy on yt
Well, in 2009 it happened and lasted for eight years. It was no fun at all, and it was not funny.
😂
Well now,one of them did !!😃
what do you mean did? he still there, trumpturd.
@@cordelljohnson1060 trumpturd? Seems like this guy is happy about the Obama presidency judging by the emoji, so what's your issue?
@@lukewarmlava2083 For you to ask that, you haven't been paying attention.. you probably think the corona virus is a hoax too.
@@cordelljohnson1060 No i haven't been paying attention to American politics and no I don't think Corona is a hoax. I would actually be a Liberal in the US, but I'm from Sweden.
It's cute how everybody presumes that if somebody doesn't like something, they automatically voted for trump. You people are why I'm no longer a democrat.
THE OLD "GOP" PARTY THEME SONG ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
if only Obama was really that fun! XD i wouldn't mind some craps and policy myself if they let in a white guy
That's a good song, not like all of this black music we have today.

Are you trolling or are you actually serious? I can't tell
@@lukewarmlava2083 Trolling, although some comments on old racist songs like these are indeed serious in their racism, and I understand your confusion.
@@josephancion2190 Okay good, thanks for the clarification!

@@maudlin1459 did you not read his second reply
Very cool song and very old
Obama took this pretty literally
I like the song!!!!!!!🇺🇲✝️🦅
Obama
A disgustingly racist song that only has ironic value considering our 44th president.
Crying about a 120 year old song. Must not have many friends do ya?
@@Aqua.man045 it's still racist dawg
@@peechannel8435 Your point?
I think it's awesome.
@@snsnshhhs663 Um, it's still racist. That was the point.
Nikki Haley: America has never been a racist nation
Dan W. Quinn: And I took that personally...
Somehow this song was even more racist than I anticipated from the title. Prejudice aside, it's a terribly unoriginal song with uninventive lyrics and a bland melody. Its only value seems to be the novelty of the idea of a black president and the horribly racist imagery coming from that vision.
Years from now, the world will still remember and revere Obama, but already Dan W. Quinn has long been tossed aside.👻
Woah, are you telling me a U.S. President who was last in office 8 years ago is currently remembered more than a recording artist from 130 years ago? Wow how utterly shocking.
VP Joe Biden must of sang this song for Obama for 8 years
It seems that 'anti Diversity, Equity, Inclusion' movements are fanciful in our Country these days. Yet comparing this song in all its historical richness to literally ANYTHING on the Top 2000 Billboard chart today is stunning. Perhaps all the DEI work across the Country and over the years HAS made a difference after all? I truly fear for our immediate future.
I question whther this song is truly from 1899.
The White House was not referred to as the White House until Theodore Roosevelt established that name by executive order in 1901. Before that order it was called the Executive Mansion.
I'm inclined to believe that this video was produced by a contemporary (21st century) white racist to appeal to other white racists pf this period.
It was OFFICIALLY renamed "White House" in 1901 but it was probably called the "White House" by ordinary people long before that. The song dates to 1898 with Quinn's recording a year later.
@@MCDreng According to the White House Historical Association, most people in the 19th century referred to the building as "the President's House" or as "the Executive Mansion."
But I did a quick search for this highly unpleasant song, and as you indicated, it is indeed authentically from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
@@johnbowen2956 I imagine the White House was an informal name for the mansion.
@@MCDreng I rather like "White House." It conveys to my ear an egalitarian republicanism which "Executive Mansion" and "the President's House" do not.
obama!
Describes Obama to a T.
Sadly, that won't change the fact that it's literally offensive to Afro-Americans alike. (Trust me, and don't get me wrong!)
who cares
@@davehouk5990white people
I'm black and I'm not offended at all.
I love these very vintage songs.
I love the old sound and static.
I have an entire playlist of these records.
Have you ever heard the one that records a black man whistling.
I think that one is also 1899.
Have an awesome Christmas
And look at the damage he did...
😂😂😂😂
