Modern Day "House Nigger"

[Silleone]

i know what a house nigger is, back in the slave days, he was the brother that worshipped his master and the one that disliked the brothers that worked in the field, if his master said white was ble he agreed, if his master said bark like a dog, he would do it, u get the idea, in the ice cube thread i made in street hop, a member said "ice cube was tight back in the day,befor he became a house nigger" or something similar, Now, i truly dont get this, just becuz a black mans either.
1.rich
2.dates white girls
3.has white friends

why is he called a house nigger, would anyone her say, a rapper like nas is a house nigger, jay z, dre, i mean if a black guy is raised in the white suburbs, wont he be a product of what is around him, similar a child born in the ghetto, now i notice that, if a black guy steals, kills, curses, raps, etc he is applauded and called real but if a black guy, dates a white woman, is a lawyer, he is a house nigger, if u ask me the real "slaves" are the ones in jail, the ones on welfare, , i mean, jails are usually owned by whites, the goverment that give welfare are white, the people that own the ghettos and have control are white, where as the black guy who studied, never did drugs, etc owns his house, has a job, a nice car a family, how is he then a "house nigger".

first regarding ice cube himself, what i meant was cube was on this righteous shit on death certificate, fight the system, blah blah blah, burn hollywood burn, etc etc, called eazy e a house nigga cuz he was working with jerry the whiteboy, but now years later since cube is balling, he no longer wants to fight the establishment, hes happy making retarded stereotyping movies like barbershop and shit, basically makin money for the same people he was talking shit about before, just like slaves who got to work in the masters house, once they're in the masters house they no longer worry about what the master does to the others cuz it no longer affects them personally or directly....

as for your second paragraph, half i agree half i dont, alot of people in jail are fucking retarded aswell, because they fall into the masters plans aswell, killing people with guns or drugs, however just like not every person in jail is a criminal, not every straight edge person is righteouss, it depends how you got your money and what you do with, just because you're balling with big materialistic objects, doesnt mean you're a house nigga, but at the same time doesnt mean youre a success

But people take it too far. People still think that any black man who works for a white man is a house nigger.

I don't think barbershop was stereotypical, the barbershop that i go to is mostly like that and the majority of all black barbershops i been to are like that.
