Now this I intended to say was racist.

Sexist too. Ironic that the commercial was created by a black rapper. Bet he's laughing his way to the bank on that one.

Yes, quite ironic. Doesn't change how patently offensive it is. (I know that you understand that, just pre-empting a response or two)

Had a Hispanic rapper made a commercial where all of the actors were latin and carrying leaf blowers or hopping the border it would remain offensive.

I'm certainly not supporting the commercial, but wouldn't it be equally offensive if the participants were all white and decked out like the Beverly Hillbillies, or is it somehow "OK" these days to negatively stereotype whites and whites only? Just wondering where the boundaries are.

This commercial was pulled as was the sponsorship for the "artist" in question.

No, that wouldn't be ok either.

I was actually expecting GreenBat to post this. I don't know if it is THE most racist ever, since there isn't a database to reference what's more racist, but at the VERY LEAST it's got to be right up there. Not to mention its utterly stupid. I thought commercials were supposed to make you want a product? I get the Dew/Do play on words thing, but the entire premise is just......WTF?! And very racist.

Though, admittedly, I do think it's wrong to be "snitchin on a playa"

It wasn't as racist or sexist as it was stupid. This is what rap generation folk call humor?
