David Banner Responds To V-Nasty Diss
David Banner checked in with ‘Sway’ In The Morning and addressed a few topics. The main one being V-Nasty dissing him and the use of the “N-word” by other cultures.
On her recent album with Gucci Mane, BAYTL, the Atlanta rapper’s Snow Bunny raps,
“Got more bricks than houses in Atlanta. Damn how a white B**ch more hood than David Banner.”
An obvious response to Banner’s thought provoking single “Swag,” surprisingly Banner didn’t get baited and addressed the issue like a grown man. Speaking on the “diss,” Banner said,
“It don’t bother me at all. One problem with Hip-Hop is people try to act a certain way and they put it on their sleeve. I don’t have to talk about the stuff I do.
He (Caller) just called up and he told the people what I did (for the hood during Hurricane Katrina). The stuff I did that was hood, I can’t talk about it on a record.”
“It’s funny when people tell these kids to be hood and they don’t stay in the hood. They give the kids this mentality of staying in the hood and that shows you what other cultures think about us as Black people and what’s important to us and how they try to play us Black men against each other.
The sad thing (if I was to respond), I’m the big mean Black guy. Regardless of how articulate I am, if I move any kind of way I will always be crucified.
Regardless of these Disney and Paramount deals I’m doing, I’ll always be looked at in that manner so what I realize that as Black people, we have to stop letting people play our culture like that.”
