I said, Fuck that. If they'll do that to three white women they will tear my black ass to pieces. I don't wanna hear that shit. Yeah, man, they would. But I'm, like, for real, why do you care so much what the Dixie Chicks are saying? Its not like they're political scientists. They just can sing good... you know what I mean? Stop worshipping celebrities so much. Just don't pay attention. I remember right around September, Ja Rule was on MTV. Thats what they said. "We got Ja Rule on the phone. Lets see what Ja's thoughts are on this tragedy." Who gives a fuck what Ja Rule thinks at a time like this? This is ridiculous. I don't wanna dance. I'm scared to death. I want some answers that Ja Rule might not have right now. You think when bad shit happens to me, Ill be in the crib like "Ohh my god this is terrible. Could somebody please find Ja Rule? Get hold of this motherfucker so I can make sense of all this. Where is Ja? Find me Ja Rule." I don't even know why people listen to me. I'll say anything. I've done commercials for Coke and Pepsi. I don't give a fuck what comes out of my mouth. I say what it takes. Whatever it takes, thats what I'm saying. If you wanna know the truth, cant even taste the difference. Surprise! All I know is, Pepsi paid me most recently so... it tastes better. Thats pretty much how the game goes. I'm just being real, man. There's too much googaa over celebrities. People don't know what's fake and what's real any more.
