Looks like NICK CANNON is taking this ‘grown-ass man’ thing seriously. The actor/DJ has some words for one Marshall Mathers so he did like everyone does when they have some issue with a man publically disrespecting his wife – He blogged about it.  

‘I had nothing but respect for this dude. But all of a sudden I hear my name in the verse! My first reaction was like, “This is his new shit??? Wow, that’s too bad…” Then I felt sorry for him because he must really be stuck in the past. Not only has his music not evolved, but also homeboy is still obsessed with my wife, the same female that wouldn’t let him get to second base from 8 years ago!… So as I further examine the track, I hear dude cross the line. He begins to call my wife out of her name! Now as y’all know, I don’t take that type of nonsense lightly. So on some grown man shit I’m instantly like, I got to get at this Lame. I know it’s only entertainment and I’m all for freedom of speech. But I’m from the school of thought where if you are tough enough to talk shit, you got to be tough enough to deal with the consequences that come with tough guy shit talking! Then the little angel on my shoulder said, “No Nicholas, there is no need to play into his negativity. He is just a troubled soul yearning for the lost spotlight. You must be Christ like and turn the other cheek”

So why didn’t Nick just meet dude in the corner and whoop his ass (I’d pay to see this fight go down). 

But then the dude on the other shoulder said, “ What Nigga?! Is you scared?! You can’t let no man ever disrespect your wife! Especially not some Peroxide drenched homophobic has-been! This is like some Paquiao vs. Hatton shit! He is underestimating you with his ass out and you can drop him in the first round!”

But here’s where this gets interesting, Cannon – after deciding that a rap battle would be laughable – it occurs to him that Em’s latest words on his ‘Bagpipes For Baghdad’ aren’t just offensive to he and his wife but rather a cultural diss. 

Why do you ask? Well because when a white man calls a bi-racial woman a ‘cunt’ and a ‘whore’, it’s a racial attack. 

“I realized, that this so-called man has just disrespected and slanderized one of the world’s most significantly influential artists, one of the most notable BLACK females of our time, the incredibly cherished, globally loved and world-embraced woman of color, Mariah Carey!…Mariah is the same racial mixture as our beloved president Barack Obama.  [Black Father + White Mother= BLACK]…I thought we got passed the days where white men could spew vulgar obscenities at our beautiful queens and get away with it. What’s next? Are we going to let this trash say something horrible about our lovely first lady, Mrs. Michelle Obama? Calling my wife a “cunt” and a “whore” is way worse than anything Don Imus could have ever said.”

Hmmmm, ok. So here’s the question: So is Marshall Mathers being racist when he calls Mariah Carey a ‘cunt’? Or is Nick Cannon just looking for us to rally around his outrage over the dissing of his wife? 

You tell me.
