Hack Hip-Hop Artist Calls Britney "Ugly" In Song
Britney Spears is going through some hard times these days, and is being bashed by just about everyone. But this one surprised even the Gossip.
A new hip-hop/reggae song entitled "Black Princess" is creating quite a stir on the Internet. It refers to the pregnant Britney as ugly, as opposed to India Arie, who is apparently so sweet and lovely.
Sure, her life is a bit of a train wreck and her husband leaves something to be desired… but to step up and make a statement like that seems a bit off base. Here's how Bookman, the "artist" behind "Black Princess," has explained the reason why he is so anti-Britney:
"I was just watching VH1 most beautiful people and I was not seeing any of the women that I consider beautiful such as Venus Williams and India Arie. Then they showed Britney Spears and I almost fell out my chair, because I thought there is no way Britney is as beautiful or talented as India Arie, so I just came up with the song right there," he said.
Bookman's song is either really good, or really controversial â€" it's one of the most downloaded from iTunes and Yahoo music services as of now, and is generating a lot of buzz, in the form of both praise and criticism. Any publicity is good publicity, they say â€" and Britney isn't the only star the song mentions in unflattering terms. Kobe Bryant, Charles Barley, Tiger Woods, O.J. Simpson and Anna Kournikova are also referenced.
The Gossip has done some digging and uncovered the full lyrics to the song. Here are the official lyrics to "Black Princess," by Bookman:
You can't accuse me of raping white girls like Kobe
India Arie, you are so sweet and lovely
I want you to kiss and hug me
Britney Spears you are ugly.
CHORUS:
What would I do without my Black Princess
I would live celibate, I would die celibate
Cause all the girls I met
And all the girls I sex
There was none like my African Princess (twice)
To chase white women that's not me bra
I might marry one to get my visa
But I wont turn white woman breeder
Cause I don't want my child to be no zebra
That's why I wont catch no Jungle fever
And I don't want no girl that looks like Reba
She must be cute like the Queen of Sheba
She must be fit to be an African leader
And in Jah she must be a believer
In Jah she must be a beliver
CHORUS:
I was chillin at my job where I met a blonde bimbo
She whispered in my ears that she wants Mandingo
Because I turn her on with my Jamaican lingo
Plus am flexible enough for the Jamaican limbo
She heard it through the grapevine
I give girls a great time
Because I have a great whine
Sweeter than the grape wine
She say meet her at break time
She know that will be long enough
Because she heard am long enough
And she could see am strong enough
Black and African enough
I practice how to slam enough
Her boyfriend only nyam enough
Good thing I was man enough
To know I couldn't bang the slut
A nuff Black woman mi want…
CHORUS:
I could never take vanilla and leave chocolate alone
Oh no, am not Karl Malone
I don't go crazy for some bitch name Barbie
I leave that for OJ and Charles Barkley
Am from the place of water and wood
100% real African wood
Am not diluted like Tiger Woods
I need a real Black woman to make me feel good
So keep Kournikova and keep Martina
Just give me Venus and the sweet Serena
Serena, Serena, I love the batty rider wha you eena
Wow, such artistic brilliance. Let us be the first to say that this individual should be honored not only as a Grammy winner, but as a poet laureate. So deep. So moving. So utterly profound. Not. Who the fâ€"k is Bookman, and where does he get off taking cheap shots at our girl? First Janice Dickinson and now this. Jealous, bitter individuals apparently have nothing better to do than tarnish Britney's image in a pathetic attempt to feel better about their own lives. You suck, Bookman. We despise you. You are not loved in this world. Accept it and leave Brit be.
We could launch a 10-page rebuttal here, but all we can muster the strength to do right now is post a picture of Britney Spears that no sane human would describe as ugly. Enjoy it.

Is it just my imagination or is this song just a little racist? He bashes only talented white women and praises somewhat talented black women. If a white person had made a song like this bashing black women and praising white women, all hell would break loose. This is ridiculous, it's a joke.

I agree Shereen, this is racist crap. I can't stand how some people pull this reverse discrimination, when if it were the other way around (as you said), people would be up in arms. I also think people should stop tearing apart Britney just because she is going through a tough period in life. Remember that this is just a sweet Southern girl deep down. She is endlessly fascinating, yes, but sometimes people ought to just back off!!!!

Oh please, please, please stop with that fucking reverse racism crap. Talented white women? Semi Talented black women. What kind of fucked up statement is that. Serena and Venus are the most talented women in tennis period. India Arie doesn't still get to make records cause she's hot (at least buy western standards) .And the statement by Gossip to leave our women alone. What? White Women? I really wish people would just say that if your not a white girl with long flowing locks, and a killer body, then you have no right to grace an album cover or show your face on the TV. It's like it shocks and amazes people that some blacks don't find white women attractive. And as for white people writing songs like that. You don't have to. You say it everyday, with the way you shoulder Brittany's pain as if she didn't do it to her self. With the way no people of any real dark color and African features are put into those stupied 100 most beautiful people articles. I would just much rather hear that you can't stand niggers and really dark ones at that. You know I hated Michael Richards at first for what he said. But Now I realize that he's got more balls than any white person out there. Let your racist flag fly Bitches.
And who is bookman. Someone who got Gossip to address this issue as if they didn't care. And someone who's getting his stuff downloaded, and making you scared that people might actually agree with him

December 9th, 2006 7:45 PM
You know Sandra It;s interesting that you compare your self with asian's and phillipino's. You chose racises that are very close to white because of their light skin. I wanna know why you or anyone feels, lighter races are next in line to be the master race. What makes you hate darker races so much? Why is being lighter such a privallege?
December 13th, 2006 7:06 AM
IT IS ABOUT TIME A BLACK MAN STAND UP FOR US MOST WHITE WOMEN BRAG TOO MUCH HOW THEY TAKE OUR MEN. SHIT BRITNEY IS CUTE BUT ITS SISTERS LIKE BEYONCE THAT BLOW HER ASS OUT.

I think the only reason why there's even a discussion about this song is because it's white people's chance to harp on "reverse racism." My thing is, you think that one song written by one dude is gonna balance out all of the previous discrimination hell that blacks have gone through in America? I would actually love to hear a song by Garth Brooks or Clay Aiken or somebody, just singin his ass off about how he loves Britney Spears and how ugly India Arie is because I can promise that the same people who would buy the record are the same people whining on this page. And real talk, Britney Spears isn't all that gorgeous, and anyone who walks around in a public bathroom isn't ugly.....but they're down right dirty. Choose your battles ya'll.
December 21st, 2006 11:22 PM
Ja-son pretty much said everything that I wanted to say. And to that incredibly ignorant person who said Venus and Serena are "somewhat talented"... wow... I'm still shaking my head off at that.
Oh, and Sandra... um, sweetie, being Puerto Rican doesn't make you white. To white people, you're still a spic. Accept it, and move on.
Yeah, Bookman's words were a little bold, but I'm happy SOMEONE is finally praising the women I look up to. Because, Britney Spears is *such* a great example.

If you name the pretties woman in the united states,slut britney spears would not make the cut. But if you name the top sluts in hollywood and the music industry, britney spears would be at the top of the list along with paris hilton, linsey lohan, madona and lets not forget sharon stone. Should I continue talking about the rich white trash we see grace our tv every day. Fame has messed these white girls up. The rehab for some of them is always and options. A therapist in hollywood has to be making a great living off of these cliants.
March 12th, 2007 7:46 PM
AT THE END OF THE DAY WE ALLL TAKE A S**T be it black or white...rascism isnt going to change never has never will be it on the white man or black man or hispanic
PS. white ppl u can say its rascism if ur kind gets lynched once ina while..not thats HATE. for what reason? no one will ever know
March 13th, 2007 3:38 PM
Sandra,
Do you know who you are as a Puerto Rican? If not let me help you. I am Puerto Rican as well. Puerto Ricans are HARDLY white. We are Indian(to a lesser degree), African and Spanish....not white. We are mixed race people. You need to understand that there were 20 times more slaves dropped off in the Carribbean and Central and South American than in the United States during the long period of slavery. Most of our culture is tied to Africa from the food to the music, art to even the way we speak Spanish with some of our words interwined with African words. Some of us Puerto Ricans do come light or somewhat white looking but that is no different than the African Americans that have huge color variations within their families. At the end, we both still have African ancestry and because of that tie that binds us along with 60% of Cuba and countless Colombians, Dominicians, Venezualans, Brazilians ...we should NEVER be disrespectful to each other. Ever.
Now to the song. I do not agree with insulting any race, but in the words of Chris Rock, "I am not saying I agree, but I understand". For far too many years minorities, particularly darker ones or ones with more ethnic features, have been pushed into the background. Now many are tired of being ashamed of their God-given appearance and therefore you have songs like this as a result of that anger.
To call this song "reverse racism" is overspeak. Let's be real for a second...Whites are not truly harmed by the harsh words of minorities. Minorities do not yield any power to actually "reverse racism". I think this brotha wanted to speak to pride of his black women as well as pride, but I personally think he should have been less harsh with his words. But again," I understand".

Thank you Liz for speaking the truth. I too am Puerto Rican and I ran across this page and was shocked by all of foolishness that young lady had written. Her ignorance is a product of her family not teaching her the history of our people or they are teaching her a version that is very incorrect.
March 21st, 2007 7:39 PM
Haahaha!! I think this is a joke yeah Britney Spears is ugly when you look at black women like Beyonce,Gabriela Union black omen are just more attractive end of question! But Britney is fucked up but the words are harsh though but funny becouse the guy is white himself! And enveryone knew that he would not leave his sexy black girl for a fucked up white girl! And yall say that black women are ugly with big lips and asses but I dont think eney hot blooded man would say Beyonce or halle Berry are ugly! And thoes women with big lips and asses come from the west of Africa they are not all like that you fucking idiots! I kow loads of white guy who would love black women so you racist can have your white women but alll the normal men like chocolate!!
March 23rd, 2007 7:17 PM
KKK- Yea its tha koo kolored kid: Thys song is racist n thas messed up but at least a black man has the sense to praise some unappreciated black beauty...basically the song is about recognizing black women as people of beauty, not over sexualized ugly women. He just went bout it tha worng ass way
Yea Boi!!!!!
April 13th, 2007 2:38 PM
its nothig personal but in my taste i dont find black people attractive i dont think in any wya they are less its just not my preference which i think was that songwriters idea that his preference is just black woman but the way he did it was wrong and offensive u dont put down one race to make urs seem better which is what he did and its true if anyother race had made the same comment about black people being ugly it would have been some big deal so the song is rude and i too am puerto rican and i am proud to ethnically mixed its natural and i think it was wrong that the songwritr made mixed people "washed out" anyways i dont find black people physically attractive their features don't entice me but i would never think of them as below and obviously as a puerto rican i probably am part black no matter wut the color of my skin is so i think most of the people here need to stop with the hate its fine for everyone to have preferences but when you say nigger and spic its just wrong
April 14th, 2007 7:26 PM
Bottom Line: If you can choose your race, I bet 99.999% would choose something other than black!!! It just sux to be a nigger, and all you niggers know it! So keep on with your racist remarks embedded in your rap songs. Go continue to bitch about how oppressed your race is!!! You will see that most of the world don't give a shit. It's only normal for the inferiors to want to start some commotions . I am white, and hell yes it feels good...wouldn't want it any other way!
April 18th, 2007 9:55 AM
I am truly amazes at the remarks of "Sandra" and the likes "Baghdady" - this is the 21 century y'all - get over this bs - we have been here from the get go and will be here to the end "Accept it". Freedom if speech is a Human Right - so if Bookman wants to express how he feels or what he thinks let him do so as he may not be alone in his feelings as will be other "idiots that agrre with the "sandra's of this world - and Ms Sandra as you have been told "puerto ican are not white contray to you dum a$$ belief. I am proud to be black and a black women and beaury is not reflected in the color of your skin - it's a combination of "qualities" - but Sandra nad your frenz y'all wont know that cuz y'all is all missing that... Step into the present and future the world you live in is multi cultural and you have got know choice - however, you can commit suicide and rid this world of one more bigot and if you can find like minded folks like yourself you may want to encourage them to probably do a mass suicide bid - cuz us "normal" human beings are sick and tired of this black white bs.
May 24th, 2007 7:38 PM
To comment on what Baghdady had to say about If 99.999% of the world were given the option to choose their race they would choose white, I don't agree because 99.999% none African Americans spend 99.999% in taning beds and 99.999% out in the hot ass sun trying their best to be what God created African Americans to be, Black.
July 19th, 2007 5:22 PM
Yeah, and I 'understand' Hitler. The fact of the matter is that racist crap is racist crap no matter whose lips it escapes from. There is no more justification for a black person to be spouting hatred just because he or she belongs to a so-called 'minority' which feels aggrieved not to be part of the majority. Even the most cursory study of global history would reveal the trouble caused by hate-fuelled minorities and the frequently extreme nature of their remarks.
August 3rd, 2007 5:59 AM
I dont agree with the racism but shit if you thik Venus and Serena Williams are beautiful then you are freaking wierd. They are so UGLY. they look like men in wigs eww
