All right...
Musically that was a solid banger. Kinda like Lil Dicky's Freaky Friday. The beat was tight. He had a good flow. If the chorus was about something else and he didn't have an accent in it, it would be more catchy but it's still catchy nonetheless.
In terms of the content, it's kinda like the CSI episode about them helping the Asian massage parlor in the sense that Hopsin's MV and the CSI episode show lighter portrayals of Asian massage parlors, with Hopsin being way lighter than CSI is of course.
I'd say it was a good one time listen. Wouldn't bang it out of my car but simple and funny.

For a guy who has likely been the victim of institutional discrimination all of his life, that was a pretty racist thing to produce. The voice parody was not cute.
I hear ya. But, except for the exaggerated accents and the glass tip jars, that was pretty spot on.

When someone is repeatedly the victim of discrimination over and over they seem to react in one of two ways. They push back on it when they see it, regardless of who the victim class is. Or they look for another group to victimize.

Sorry if some felt the video I posted promoted anything other than some lighthearted fun. It was a bit over the top of course, with the acting. No offense meant to anyone by me.

Point is, assuming from your profile name that you’re HISpanic suppose If I we’re a white coworker and talked to you in a bad gringo version of Speedy Gonzalez every time we interacted. Song to begin with is wack af, not even trap like and I really don’t care for the “I’m a person of color so I can make fun of other people of color” excuse. The brotha should have known better, had it been a white boy trying to talk street he would be have been eviscerated online.
One of the Asian girls in the video is Jenny Babas and shes also corny af on her Instagram comedy skits, I’m sure she’s been called out for pulling the same racist jokes even if she is Asian. She did some sort of Robert Kraft parody that I don’t see on her page probably because she was pulling that extreme Asian accent and got flack for it

all good brother, it’s just not that funny (imo)

But while we’re on the subject of AMPs in film and videos has anyone caught this old indie called “Feel” with William Baldwin as the main character? It’s basically a day in the world of an AMP in lower Manhattan

I’m confused as to why you responded, are you also Headsup profile? I asked HU his point out of curiosity since he mentioned must see or something like that. Thanks for your take, by the way I’m of color too, just saying, but then again aren’t we all? I liked speedy Gonzales as a kid, I thought he was one slick rat.
