Thank you, especially if you made it to the end. It sucks that Steve's are "beefing," but it's good to call out anti-black Black/mixed with Black celebrities. I hope one day he apologizes for what he said back then because it does not make him look good. Lastly, like the video and comment (share the video too)📌
He did nothing wrong! Apologize for WHAT???😂😂😂 That he told the truth and didn't give in to your nazi black supremacist D policing? It's *YOU* hateful, snack pack throwing neurodivergent, inbred racists job to apologize to the WORLD for your racist entitlement, black privilege, and hate that literally kills people and causes genocide of mixed and non black people. Video reported. This is nothing but a Hitler hate speech channel. Channel reported...
There's something about black men specifically in California that have an aversion of having unambiguously black partners that needs to be talked about lol. Both in hetero and queer spaces. I'm not from there, but I can tell a thing is a thing and it's obvious to ME
I'm from cali... only date white men and am now married to a white man but i grew up around nothing but white people I notice a lot of men from like LA that are from the "h00d" want to be seen as different non h00d or non ghett0 and dating nonblack or mixed race makes this possible for them They grew up in LA around black women that look and act similar to them and their family but they want to set themselves apart they feel they are better and worthy of better these women bring up their value It's all about the complexion tho because the girl could be a h00d chick from the same area but she's not dark or black and that's what matters 🤷🏿♀️ I've literally been told I belong in the h00d based on my darker skintone, deep self-hatred in CA like any major states/cities where you have super rich and very poor close together
Regardless of where or how they were raised, it's definitely more common for black and mixed race men from CA to have a non-black racial preference. I was raised in LA and grew up in The Bay and I can attest that CA black and mixed men have a habit of pedestalizing other groups above their own.
Yes! It really does suck. I hope things get better the more we call it out online and in person. It's too normalize with the Black community. Then, non-black people defend it because of their biases, racism, or both. Shaking my head.
First I must say I freaking love Steve Lacy’s music. His last album is so good. With that being said lol your video has shed more light on his anti-Black behavior. I don’t get offended that he chooses to date non-Black men because I can’t force anyone to be physically attracted to Black men; however, I agree with your point that Steve needs to examine why he feels the way he feels. I grew up in a Black-majority city and went to predominantly Black schools (including college) so maybe that’s why I am primarily attracted to Black men. I have dated a few yt/mestizo Latino men in the past but 99.9% of my relationships have been with Black men. I think Steve Lacy’s background might be a factor since he was around more non-Black folks during his formative years. His tweets were ignorant but he was a teenager so I pray he has matured now. I also noticed that folks from Odd Future and/or associated with them (Tyler, Frank Ocean, Steve etc) tend to date non-Black people. As well, they tend to collab or work with light-skinned Black/biracial women (Foushee for example) and woc (Kali Uchis) more than unambiguous Black women especially dark-skinned Black women. They all make great music tho but I’m just sayin lol
Yes! That's what I noticed about Tyler. I'm glad that we have Kali Uchis tbh and I won't even blame her for using her connections, but it really made me upset how Tyler couldn't even uplift not one unambiguous black woman from what I've heard from his features and discography. This is why I love kaytranada. I think all of his features from the BUBBA album were other black artist and I love that. Check it out if you haven't. I was sleeping on him for so long.
@@saxviars9749 thank you for your response. Yes I love KAYTRANADA. Bubba was amazing. My top 3 songs from that album featured Black women (VanJess, Estelle, and Teedra Moses). He has also worked with NoName. That’s why I question the OddFuture/The Internet-affiliated dudes because it seems like they consciously try to only work with multi-ethnic/non-Black women. It’s like their dating “preferences” seep over into their business side smh
Thank you for sharing Johnie and sorry I am seeing this now. I been avoiding the comments lol! Also, thank you for the artists recommendations @saxviars!
@@JulianSteve Thank you Mr. Julian. You been having the Rosalia, Anitta and The Weeknd stans coming after you. Now I’m sure Steve’s stans are doing the same. There aren’t a lot of mainstream Black LGBT+ artists out there so I wanna give Steve some grace but everything you said about him is valid.
I was in love with a bisexual Mexican-American man and he said the exact same thing about Latin men, that they reminded me of his brothers. I'm glad he and I never dated, because I'm part Venezuelan and part Iranian-American, and I'm strongly attracted to both genders of my cultural background. I'd never want to date a self-hating brown person. I'd love to see more famous Black and Brown same gender couples and I really liked Steve Lacy until I discovered this. He's one of the few out bi celebs we have, so this is very disappointing.
Thank you so much for sharing, Yasmin. It sucks that Steve thinks this way and is not willing to apologize. It's not okay and more people who look up to him are going to follow him. It's not good.
yall are slow? how is this self hatred 💀 theyre is alot of brotherhood in the black community especially for men... why cant yall just respect people's boundaries if they're uncomfortable theyre uncomfortable
It's not self hatred. I can't fully explain it, but I also can't date (most) men of my ethnicity. Maybe it's because I've had the most trouble with them. Maybe it's because of the unwelcome familiarity of them. But I don't want them. That is my boundry. I still might date one or two if theyre cute enough. I don't hate them and I actively support them. I just don't want most of em
Interesting that men are going through the same thing hmmmmmmmm I really wonder what’s the mindset of these black men and women of a certain tax bracket not dating black people…
Please can you do an antiblackness explained episode on Kendrick Lamar, because his likeness for biracial or non-black women vs the way he portrays black women and objectifies them in his music videos is very irritating. And to see that a huge portion of his fan base are the black women he doesn’t fw is crazy to me
@@king.2597 There’s a difference she didn’t call Kendrick Lamar anti-black she said she noticed things which were related to anti-blackness and want the creator on RUclips to dig up more information.
@@king.2597 And let’s be clear Kendrick Lamar hasn’t made no songs for black women he made a song which was a year ago issuing women’s rights but that was for a whole majority of women not just for black women.
He makes music for the black community as a whole. Some of those songs can be centered from a black man perspective because that’s who he is. But he makes music for us as a group
I was going to ask about his environment but it seems like he was living in a white neighborhood. Correct me if I am wrong. Either way it is not an excuse to talk bad about Black people........ the posts he has made on instagram and twitter is just wow sick 🥲 And the fact that his fans defend his behavior is disgusting as well and giving delusional. But anyways good video as always ❤🥲 always showing proof and lets see how delusional his fans still are LMAO
Thank you for pushing me to do this video, sista! Also, he used three major platforms to spew hatred toward Black men, specifically queer Black men. Unbelievable and let us see how these comments look in the coming days🙃
@@kianalaboriel6595 thank you 😂 But seriously tho you are right that his old tweets were horrible. I think a lot of teens are rebellious and say things for shock value and laughs on Twitter but he needs to at least apologize for those posts now that they’re resurfacing.
As a blasian like Steve lacey black and philipino. I understand the preference to white guys but to COMPLETELY RULE OUT black men is idiotic. I've had major crushes on black men I wish liked me back. More for me though
noooooooo! I thought we were just gonna talk about the anti-blackness... I am deeply disturbed by that "a hit is a hit" tweet :(. Definitely deleting his music off my streaming platforms despite it happening so long ago. When people show you who they are, we have to believe it. I am not a man, but as a bisexual I think you cover the topic very respectfully. I was trying to find an article I read a while ago by a gay black man who hosted a party and all the black gay men who attended had white partners that they brought with them (including himself), which he thought was interesting and wrote an Op-Ed about (unfortunately I couldn't find it though). This is definitely an issue that is bigger than Steve Lacy, but I think we still need to hold him accountable on an individual level.
Thank you so much for your comment, @saxviars. You're right, these discussions are bigger than Steve Lacy, and I hope more Black/mixed with Black people discuss this online (in person too).
@@kianalaboriel6595 look at Tyler the creator he used to be known for his offensive lyrics and being homophobic now he’s actually bisexual people change idk why the internet hooks on stuff, everyone’s gone through a phase where they said messed up stuff idk why y’all get mad though when there famous
@@a1ourqa I respect what you saying but at the same time I still think he should address that especially if all his old tweets resurfaced that don’t look good on him Lmao 😭
Never heard of this guy until watching this but he is from California. Sadly, almost all of the BM from the west coast have this mindset regardless of their sexual orientations. It is notoriously known that in LA, black men are only looking for non-black people to date. It is an epidemic that has unfortunately been passed over & over. The self-hate bm have is astounding. It is one thing to say I have not done that, we have not dated or idk, but to BLANTANTLY shut it down irrevocably is an entirely different phenomenon. They seriously lack any non-superficial clear thought process. These types are usually perpetually childish, lacks emotional intelligence/depth, empathy, or deep objectivity. When we look at it, in the LGBT community there are MAYBE lots more BW with BW relationships than there are BM with BM relationships. 🤔🤔 Anyway, As an ex-Tyler stan, I have far removed my feelings and all from these feeble-minded men years ago. Hope they can one day heal their self-hate.
Hey Julian I know this is not about the video. On your next video can you can talk about gina torres. She was talking about how playing African American roles made her feels sad and trapped.
It’s okay for people to have their preferences, but it was unnecessary for him to post it on social media, and be rude about it. As someone who may have influence on others, he’s not sending a positive message. I was a fan of his “Bad Habit” song, now I don’t want to listen to it anymore.
I understand you, Annette. His music for me leaves a sour taste in my mouth, especially with the harassment I've received from his hardcore fans. I do not want to listen to his music EVEN MORE!
That means he has doubts about his sexuality and he doesnt want to have sex with them because of intimidation and self hatred towards himself in general maybe they stayed bullying him in the hood and can you blame him i can see it like that , he should have asked about the real queens black woman.also i used to work woth a filipino lady she said she would only date white men because of theyre skin and she didnt want he kids to be born dark i found it to be pretty stupid because she was darker skineed Filipino lady.
Wow, thank you for sharing, Mysak. I still do not excuse Steve's self-hating ways, but I get it. Also, wow! The thing you said about the "darker" Filipina woman is yikes😬!
I’m so disappointed. I don’t think I can listen to him anymore. I used to have a huge crush on him because of his talent but even before seeing the result of your research (thank you so much for it!) I felt hella uncomfy by his latest album because I knew he was singing about white men. Also he is becoming close with Kanye West 🙃
Thank you so much for sharing, Bri. Also, I understand you not wanting to hear his music no more. I do not listen to his music and am not planning to after all the information I learned about him. P.S. - Yikes on him singing about White men and double yikes on being close to Kanye West😬!
As mixed black queer person this is so bizarre to me especially seeking a partner in close proximity to blackness because I struggle with the lack of blackness in non black potential partners
@@cheesewhizxd7819 oh. Yeah I know who Kevin abstract is. I just didn't realise that was who you were talking about cause I'm dumb. Did kevin ever say he doesn't date black men?
These tweets are from 2017; did anybody get an update from him or still going off of some shit when he was a teen? Manz is abt to be 26, what if his preference changed?
Hey @JulianSteve, I appreciate you making this video as someome who is a fan of Steve Lacy's music. I already found about most of his problematic behaviour before watching this video, but I didn't know about his tweets regarding XXXTentacion and R. Kelly.😬 I also appreciate you calling out on his questionable past. You may be a small content creator, but I'm sure your criticisms and suggestions about Steve Lacy will be heard to everyone who is willing to give this video instead of those who just automatically give this video a dislike, lol.😅
I feel like the problem is when the "preference" is rooted in white supremacy? Like how are you black but you don't like dating black people, it's clearly a lack in love with yourself 🤧
A hit is not just a hit though. When you're selling anything, you yourself are a part of the selling. Most people have feelings and morals. It will affect the listenability of your music if people know how trash of a person you are... There are some musician's music i once loved a lot but cannot enjoy it anymore because of their displayed character/behavior
I’m sure I have negative feelings towards straight black men. Because of where I grew up (ghetto) they all ain’t shit here fr. I know that isn’t the case everywhere, I know when I meet new people I have to check that bias but I do have it. These are the same guys that would flirt and stare at me when I was only 11, same guys that walked out on the mother of their kids, same guys that run around making our community more unsafe because they like to shoot firearms aimlessly..it’s hard for me to not think about that shit when I see them. I genuinely don’t want to be prejudice tho so maybe y’all can help me see it a different way..?
I think there are still so many who black men who aren't bad , and when you think about it theres a new stage of alot of black men who express and explore so many other aesthetics and ways of thinking that arent stereotypical! I think it's just being open minded because you really never know a person until you explore them and who they are! ❤
I mean we can’t really help you see it any other way because your kinda already aware of the truth. It’s either you live your life with the truth in mind that black men aren’t any more different than other races. Or you just keep being prejudice.
I’m from the ghetto and still live in the ghetto and I’m nothing like this and I know plenty other black men who aren’t like this. The few black men you see act this way don’t define all straight black men from the ghetto.
A lot of bm don't mess with other bm when they want a come up or if they are on the down low I think bm in general have a bad reputation Or he may also want a man more submissive
😂😂😂 yall are so PRESSED and D policing any black man who doesn't want yall dusty asses. Nobody OWES YOU ANYTHING FOR BEING BLACK! If whites thought they were entitled to everything white you'd call it racist. Black supremacy hypocrisy at its finest. Yall pathetic...😂😂😂
There is definitely some self hatred there. Even if thats his preference. I bet therapy could help. But my opinion probably dont mean much as a straight man.
1.) He answered a follow up question & he gave his preference. He literally gave you a reasoning to why he chooses not have love interest with black men which might not be the answer you're looking for but its still answered .(rather have him give the truth then lie) 2.) You shouldn't expect lacy to follow up with your excuses. Why would he change up for us ? Let's be real, We wouldn't do the same 3.) This dude Steve made a good point "Tell me what good are you doing for people of color rather than bashing them for preference?" It's a on going cycle of yall bashing this man instead of trying to level with the man himself. At the end of the day, Both ends aren't going to agree with each other so why not just leave it off then trying to drag this dude (Which don't matter because yall do it anyway for the clicks/Likes) 4.) How can he be anti-black when he grew up in a black household and Compton? Yall wanna write this dude off so bad and for all of it to immune to nothing. Lastly, You decided to make a video trying to come at Steve for accountability of his actions but never actually go in detail on how he can change as.person. It seems like more & more everyday this whole cancel culture circle starts to become more toxic everyday. Cancel culture will never amount to anything but only towards negativity. I'm not saying you gotta agree with Steves idealism/preferences on his dating life but you cant judge another man for their lifestyle.
@@karishajohnson6537Right. And yes, we can judge people for their choices. You may not like the judgement, but it is what it is. The same way Steve Lacy can denounce an entire ethnicity, that same ethnicity has a right to speak on it. Tf. No one is trying to cancel him. If he wants to publicly talk about his preferences, then people have the right to publicly respond. And if he considers black men his brothers, he must consider black women his sisters lol. Just going to assume he doesn’t date them either. He really gave a weak ass excuse to basically say he is ashamed to be associated with black people. Let’s call a spade a mf spade. Tired of people using preferences to cover up blatant racism. I also find it interesting that he is mixed with Filipino, but he’s never said he wouldn’t date them. It is what it is. But again, let’s not pretend this man isn’t full of self-hate.
“How can he be anti black when he was raised in a black household?” it sounds exactly like- “how can he be anti black when he has black friends?” You can’t choose who your family is so that was a super bad excuse. You do realize that throughout history a lot of mixed race people were raised by their black mothers and then after they became anti black due to the fact they hate their blackness? Also, those people grew up in the south- in small towns that were predominately black but they still ended up being racist. Being raised by a black person does not automatically mean you can’t be racist, because that person may hate that side of themselves. You not understanding that just shows how you are clearly not a black person, and it really shows since you made this ignorant excuse.
This is late, but as someone who was involved in ~fandom even back in his group’s earlier days lol. Steve has been with a Black woman and slept with them lol. I have no dog in this fight as a Latina and I no longer stan him. I just lmao wanted to mention that as someone who was aware of…touring things lol. I don’t get what’s up with his issue with Black men tho. It’s weird.
I’m a woman and a heterosexual. I think I can understand what he’s saying to a degree. My husband is Black and I have 3 biracial children from my first marriage. I find all races attractive and haven’t had an issue with attraction or lack thereof to any man based on race. My kids who are young adults ALL say they would not date another biracial person. When I ask why they say it’s because they’d look like brother and sister! They’d date Black, White, Asian or any other, just not biracial. I think it’s absolutely ridiculous but that what they say. Maybe Lacy feels like they are like family, like his brothers and sisters?
I guess they could be weird but I'm black and I do not want to date black men pacifically for our own personal reasons so I guess I can understand why but everybody has their own demons to deal with
i wonder if hes full filipino, or full white or arab, etc.. what he said about not dating his own race/nationality would be considered not as problematic, racist?
It still would be a problem too. It’s the same thing, just different races of people. Why you’re asking? Edited - FYI: Filipino and Arab’s are ethnicities not races, so it’s a bad example.
It’s called preference people. There needs to be a limit to the extent wokeness can force you to have sex with someone you are not sexually nor physically attracted to. I like girls with curly hair and green eyes, doesn’t mean I am discriminating against every other girl who doesn’t have those features. I just have my preference. Sexual preference is very different and even separate topic than ideological preference and that includes racist ideas. Steve is and should be allowed to be physically attracted to any colour person he pleases without feeling guilt for it. What’s funny is people who tell him he should only date black people also fail to realize that they are fetishizing black folks as if they mere sexual objects only intended to serve as sexual tokens. That’s a form of racism too, you know.
He's literally NOT black. He's half Asian. 50% is his DNA matters. Yall don't own anything with a little black in them. That's using the racist one drop rule. You people are pathetic and RACIST. 😂😂😂
i do actually have a question is that will he date a black girl?????? i mean hes bisexual, so he will still date girls, but he never said he wont date black girls, he just said he wont date black guys, so if hes willing to date black girls, then what even is that? clearly thats not racist, and hes not hating on men because hes dating a man, so what the fuck is the situation lmao i guess human society IS complicated indeed
Thank you for asking. IDK how far you got into the video, but Steve Lacy not being attractive/not dating Black and/or mixed with Black men is a problem. He's bisexual and it is weird. Why exclude Black/mixed with Black men? Then, the rest of the things he said in 2017 makes the situation worse. P.S. - If he does date Black/mixed with Black women, that is fine like I mentioned in the video :)
@@JulianSteve I disagree just because some is bisexual doesn't mean they have to like all genders so your argument right there makes no sense if that's the way you think then fine but not everyone is like that
Thank you, especially if you made it to the end. It sucks that Steve's are "beefing," but it's good to call out anti-black Black/mixed with Black celebrities.

This is definitely an issue that is bigger than Steve Lacy, but I think we still need to hold him accountable on an individual level.
Thank you so much for your comment, @saxviars. You're right, these discussions are bigger than Steve Lacy, and I hope more Black/mixed with Black people discuss this online (in person too).
I hate it when you find out that an artist you like isn’t a great person. He’s just so full of himself and cringey.
Those tweets at the end are so gross tho.
Those tweets are like 4 years old he’s changed
@@a1ourqa that don't matter why he never address it? this shows he didn't change and he is besties with Kanye so 🤷🏽♀
@@kianalaboriel6595 look at Tyler the creator he used to be known for his offensive lyrics and being homophobic now he’s actually bisexual people change idk why the internet hooks on stuff, everyone’s gone through a phase where they said messed up stuff idk why y’all get mad though when there famous
@@a1ourqa I respect what you saying but at the same time I still think he should address that especially if all his old tweets resurfaced that don’t look good on him Lmao 😭
Never heard of this guy until watching this but he is from California. Sadly, almost all of the BM from the west coast have this mindset regardless of their sexual orientations. It is notoriously known that in LA, black men are only looking for non-black people to date. It is an epidemic that has unfortunately been passed over & over. The self-hate bm have is astounding. It is one thing to say I have not done that, we have not dated or idk, but to BLANTANTLY shut it down irrevocably is an entirely different phenomenon.
They seriously lack any non-superficial clear thought process. These types are usually perpetually childish, lacks emotional intelligence/depth, empathy, or deep objectivity. When we look at it, in the LGBT community there are MAYBE lots more BW with BW relationships than there are BM with BM relationships. 🤔🤔
Anyway, As an ex-Tyler stan, I have far removed my feelings and all from these feeble-minded men years ago. Hope they can one day heal their self-hate.
Hey Julian I know this is not about the video. On your next video can you can talk about gina torres. She was talking about how playing African American roles made her feels sad and trapped.
Hey Sheana and sorry I am late seeing your comment. I sure did made a video on Gina Torres. It came out yesterday by the way😅!
It’s okay for people to have their preferences, but it was unnecessary for him to post it on social media, and be rude about it. As someone who may have influence on others, he’s not sending a positive message. I was a fan of his “Bad Habit” song, now I don’t want to listen to it anymore.
I understand you, Annette. His music for me leaves a sour taste in my mouth, especially with the harassment I've received from his hardcore fans. I do not want to listen to his music EVEN MORE!
That means he has doubts about his sexuality and he doesnt want to have sex with them because of intimidation and self hatred towards himself in general maybe they stayed bullying him in the hood and can you blame him i can see it like that , he should have asked about the real queens black woman.also i used to work woth a filipino lady she said she would only date white men because of theyre skin and she didnt want he kids to be born dark i found it to be pretty stupid because she was darker skineed Filipino lady.
Wow, thank you for sharing, Mysak. I still do not excuse Steve's self-hating ways, but I get it. Also, wow! The thing you said about the "darker" Filipina woman is yikes😬!
He can’t take the Large and in Charge
I’m so disappointed. I don’t think I can listen to him anymore. I used to have a huge crush on him because of his talent but even before seeing the result of your research (thank you so much for it!) I felt hella uncomfy by his latest album because I knew he was singing about white men.
Also he is becoming close with Kanye West 🙃
Thank you so much for sharing, Bri. Also, I understand you not wanting to hear his music no more. I do not listen to his music and am not planning to after all the information I learned about him.
P.S. - Yikes on him singing about White men and double yikes on being close to Kanye West😬!
As mixed black queer person this is so bizarre to me especially seeking a partner in close proximity to blackness because I struggle with the lack of blackness in non black potential partners
Tyler don't date bm either
He sure does not.
Also Kevin
@@cheesewhizxd7819whose Kevin?
@@issac2939 Kevin abstract
@@cheesewhizxd7819 oh. Yeah I know who Kevin abstract is. I just didn't realise that was who you were talking about cause I'm dumb. Did kevin ever say he doesn't date black men?
These tweets are from 2017; did anybody get an update from him or still going off of some shit when he was a teen? Manz is abt to be 26, what if his preference changed?
commenting for the algorithm . important for small creators
Thank you so much✊🏾‼️
Hey @JulianSteve, I appreciate you making this video as someome who is a fan of Steve Lacy's music. I already found about most of his problematic behaviour before watching this video, but I didn't know about his tweets regarding XXXTentacion and R. Kelly.😬 I also appreciate you calling out on his questionable past. You may be a small content creator, but I'm sure your criticisms and suggestions about Steve Lacy will be heard to everyone who is willing to give this video instead of those who just automatically give this video a dislike, lol.😅
I think he might feel safer around non bm and probably fear they would expose his business 🤔
bro yall cannot be serious, let the man do his stuff how he wants. so what if he has a type or preference, its none of falls business either
I feel like the problem is when the "preference" is rooted in white supremacy? Like how are you black but you don't like dating black people, it's clearly a lack in love with yourself 🤧
Love this video your facial expression have me weak keep up the good work ☺️
Thank you so much, LaLa😁!
A hit is not just a hit though. When you're selling anything, you yourself are a part of the selling. Most people have feelings and morals. It will affect the listenability of your music if people know how trash of a person you are... There are some musician's music i once loved a lot but cannot enjoy it anymore because of their displayed character/behavior
I’m sure I have negative feelings towards straight black men. Because of where I grew up (ghetto) they all ain’t shit here fr. I know that isn’t the case everywhere, I know when I meet new people I have to check that bias but I do have it. These are the same guys that would flirt and stare at me when I was only 11, same guys that walked out on the mother of their kids, same guys that run around making our community more unsafe because they like to shoot firearms aimlessly..it’s hard for me to not think about that shit when I see them. I genuinely don’t want to be prejudice tho so maybe y’all can help me see it a different way..?
I think there are still so many who black men who aren't bad , and when you think about it theres a new stage of alot of black men who express and explore so many other aesthetics and ways of thinking that arent stereotypical!
I think it's just being open minded because you really never know a person until you explore them and who they are! ❤
I mean we can’t really help you see it any other way because your kinda already aware of the truth. It’s either you live your life with the truth in mind that black men aren’t any more different than other races. Or you just keep being prejudice.
I’m from the ghetto and still live in the ghetto and I’m nothing like this and I know plenty other black men who aren’t like this. The few black men you see act this way don’t define all straight black men from the ghetto.
telling a person what they should be attracted to is actually insane your a weirdo
A lot of bm don't mess with other bm when they want a come up or if they are on the down low
I think bm in general have a bad reputation
Or he may also want a man more submissive
I did not thought of the "submissive" comment. Good pointing this out @Lovely Dae!
Kinda strange because sexuality shouldn’t only be attached to sex 🤔
Also the woman I saw him liking seemed biracial or light skin in “C U Girl”
Do childish gambino
I am adding him to my list. Thank you!
@@JulianSteve you're welcome
@@lovelydae7455 I did the video and it has over 1K + views. Thank you again🥹‼️
@@JulianSteve you're welcome
😂😂😂 yall are so PRESSED and D policing any black man who doesn't want yall dusty asses. Nobody OWES YOU ANYTHING FOR BEING BLACK! If whites thought they were entitled to everything white you'd call it racist. Black supremacy hypocrisy at its finest. Yall pathetic...😂😂😂
stream gemini rights💯
Wow, I would never expect a black bi man being racist, USA and their artists are a strange world for me
Yeah, I do not get it either… Steve Lacy is self-hating for sure😒💯
There is definitely some self hatred there. Even if thats his preference. I bet therapy could help. But my opinion probably dont mean much as a straight man.
I wouldn’t have known he was blasian til he said it
He might have daddy issues 🤔
Also noticed the Janet Jackson instrumental through my headphones 😂
Lol I never that song until I got in the car with my weird ass cousin, I didn’t know that was him.
This is a great series. Will you make a video on Tyler, the Creator?
he is broken
Yes he is and has not apologize till this day.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you for tuning in😁
Great video 👌🏾 Steve is young so hopefully he grows outta that mindset
Great video I really enjoyed it
Thank you so much, Nyapouch! It's a needed discussion!
Great video! You made great points
1.) He answered a follow up question & he gave his preference. He literally gave you a reasoning to why he chooses not have love interest with black men which might not be the answer you're looking for but its still answered .(rather have him give the truth then lie)
2.) You shouldn't expect lacy to follow up with your excuses. Why would he change up for us ? Let's be real, We wouldn't do the same
3.) This dude Steve made a good point "Tell me what good are you doing for people of color rather than bashing them for preference?" It's a on going cycle of yall bashing this man instead of trying to level with the man himself. At the end of the day, Both ends aren't going to agree with each other so why not just leave it off then trying to drag this dude (Which don't matter because yall do it anyway for the clicks/Likes)
4.) How can he be anti-black when he grew up in a black household and Compton? Yall wanna write this dude off so bad and for all of it to immune to nothing.
Lastly, You decided to make a video trying to come at Steve for accountability of his actions but never actually go in detail on how he can change as.person. It seems like more & more everyday this whole cancel culture circle starts to become more toxic everyday. Cancel culture will never amount to anything but only towards negativity. I'm not saying you gotta agree with Steves idealism/preferences on his dating life but you cant judge another man for their lifestyle.
Black people can be anti Black.... like we have words and concepts for people like that because we r aware of this phenomenon.
“How can he be anti black when he grew up in a black household?”
Yeah I can tell you’re not black lol
@@karishajohnson6537Right. And yes, we can judge people for their choices. You may not like the judgement, but it is what it is. The same way Steve Lacy can denounce an entire ethnicity, that same ethnicity has a right to speak on it. Tf. No one is trying to cancel him. If he wants to publicly talk about his preferences, then people have the right to publicly respond. And if he considers black men his brothers, he must consider black women his sisters lol. Just going to assume he doesn’t date them either. He really gave a weak ass excuse to basically say he is ashamed to be associated with black people. Let’s call a spade a mf spade. Tired of people using preferences to cover up blatant racism. I also find it interesting that he is mixed with Filipino, but he’s never said he wouldn’t date them. It is what it is. But again, let’s not pretend this man isn’t full of self-hate.
“How can he be anti black when he was raised in a black household?” it sounds exactly like- “how can he be anti black when he has black friends?” You can’t choose who your family is so that was a super bad excuse. You do realize that throughout history a lot of mixed race people were raised by their black mothers and then after they became anti black due to the fact they hate their blackness? Also, those people grew up in the south- in small towns that were predominately black but they still ended up being racist. Being raised by a black person does not automatically mean you can’t be racist, because that person may hate that side of themselves. You not understanding that just shows how you are clearly not a black person, and it really shows since you made this ignorant excuse.
You sound crazily stupid bro.
This is late, but as someone who was involved in ~fandom even back in his group’s earlier days lol. Steve has been with a Black woman and slept with them lol. I have no dog in this fight as a Latina and I no longer stan him. I just lmao wanted to mention that as someone who was aware of…touring things lol. I don’t get what’s up with his issue with Black men tho. It’s weird.
I’m a woman and a heterosexual. I think I can understand what he’s saying to a degree. My husband is Black and I have 3 biracial children from my first marriage. I find all races attractive and haven’t had an issue with attraction or lack thereof to any man based on race. My kids who are young adults ALL say they would not date another biracial person. When I ask why they say it’s because they’d look like brother and sister! They’d date Black, White, Asian or any other, just not biracial. I think it’s absolutely ridiculous but that what they say. Maybe Lacy feels like they are like family, like his brothers and sisters?
The Kanye fans worse 😅
I like his music but I don't like him, before or after this video. I wish him well though.
I love Beyoncé
Ima still talk shit
so does he like black women?…. 😭
Probably not💀
Is the Nacy thing shade?
I guess they could be weird but I'm black and I do not want to date black men pacifically for our own personal reasons so I guess I can understand why but everybody has their own demons to deal with
i wonder if hes full filipino, or full white or arab, etc.. what he said about not dating his own race/nationality
would be considered not as problematic, racist?
It still would be a problem too. It’s the same thing, just different races of people. Why you’re asking?
Edited - FYI: Filipino and Arab’s are ethnicities not races, so it’s a bad example.
Hey! I don’t like how you talking bout me I have my preferences much love tho ✌🏾
If this is the real you I’m a big big fan Steve !!!
I just found about this im so disappointed i don't like him no more
is back in 2017 omfg this is literally like what almost 5 years ago and your bringing this up now???????????
🍿🍿🍿
YESSSSSSSS!
It’s called preference people. There needs to be a limit to the extent wokeness can force you to have sex with someone you are not sexually nor physically attracted to. I like girls with curly hair and green eyes, doesn’t mean I am discriminating against every other girl who doesn’t have those features. I just have my preference. Sexual preference is very different and even separate topic than ideological preference and that includes racist ideas. Steve is and should be allowed to be physically attracted to any colour person he pleases without feeling guilt for it. What’s funny is people who tell him he should only date black people also fail to realize that they are fetishizing black folks as if they mere sexual objects only intended to serve as sexual tokens. That’s a form of racism too, you know.
How is this different from a white person saying they would never date a black person
cover up an ena e pat man , cover woth pot in arm.
I thought ihad nothing going for my life? Then i realize there’s people making videos like this oh geez
If you don’t get it you just don’t get it. Colorism is a very serious topic in the black community…
s|t gd pan e bed, a fiwl set mn, brod cks in night.
I stumbled across your video while researching about Steve lacy. May I ask? Are you LGBT?
Steve Lacy is still my daddy
He literally has afro hair 😂dude is mostly black 😂
And is also half Filipino. Lots of black mixed people have Afro hair that’s just how genetics work
There’s no such thing as mostly black
You can be mixed with Afro textured hair.
He's literally NOT black. He's half Asian. 50% is his DNA matters. Yall don't own anything with a little black in them. That's using the racist one drop rule. You people are pathetic and RACIST. 😂😂😂
i do actually have a question is that will he date a black girl?????? i mean hes bisexual, so he will still date girls, but he never said he wont date black girls, he just said he wont date black guys, so if hes willing to date black girls, then what even is that? clearly thats not racist, and hes not hating on men because hes dating a man, so what the fuck is the situation lmao i guess human society IS complicated indeed
Thank you for asking. IDK how far you got into the video, but Steve Lacy not being attractive/not dating Black and/or mixed with Black men is a problem. He's bisexual and it is weird. Why exclude Black/mixed with Black men? Then, the rest of the things he said in 2017 makes the situation worse.
P.S. - If he does date Black/mixed with Black women, that is fine like I mentioned in the video :)
@@JulianSteve I disagree just because some is bisexual doesn't mean they have to like all genders so your argument right there makes no sense if that's the way you think then fine but not everyone is like that
