Nick Cannon is a massive racist… Or the best publicist ever
American rapper and comedian Nick Cannon has raised controversy and eyebrows by going white-face. The attention-seizing moves concur with the release of his recent album, “White People Party Music” distributed by Ncredible Entertainment.
He kindled an online debate by posting photos and video clips to his account. Where he has introduced his white alter personality, Connor Smallnut. Featuring Nick Connor pulling up a whiteface and red hair. Wearing a beanie hat and a plaid shirt.
Cannon then introduced a video clip. Projecting his alter ego while driving a car and standing outside of Staples Center with a black man. Each of the posts have triggered debates.
This controversy has made many of you feel whether he is being a racist or the best publicist. You may feel that he is not confident enough of his albums success. As he is trying to expand his marketing horizons. By particularly reaching out to white people, through this racist stunt.
You might feel whether he was sane and unaware of the message. That if it is acceptable to paint your face as the opposite race. Bringing about discrimination which you are not oaky with..
The practice of painting your face as another ethnicity harms the historical context. Where centuries of methodical control and degradation of a black man being concealed by another race is disagreeable. You feel it is disgusting because Cannon’s album is receiving a whole lot of attention. Just because of the publicity act of getting the face painted as white.
When Billboard caught up with Cannon at a social gathering for his albums promotion. Which took place at Hollywood’s Ohm Nightclub. Cannon was asked about the title for which he said that his album has a fun title.
He revealed that, he named it for fun more than anything. And that he knew it would stir up a little controversy. He feels that people with a sense of humor would get it immediately. As he finds it hilarious for a black man to make an album titled White People Party Music. He also defended himself by saying that, there was a huge difference between Hatred and Humor
He feels that the title doesn’t take itself too seriously, but at the same time makes a statement. He also said that he strongly believes that white people love him. And that they know how to have a good time. That is the reason he came up with the title.
You may believe that Cannon knew what exactly he was up to. When he came up with his deliberate act of controversial ‘whiteface’ image. And you may feel he was successful in his attempts. As the public is now looking at his face than ever before. Because it is so hard to look away when you are purposely up to something so preposterous. Where controversial publicity is a cheap approach. Do you really feel if he is a racist or whether he is just being funny?
