Buddy Black 2
Buddy calls out the hypocrisy of those who love to appropriate Black culture while staying silent on Black issues on his latest single, “Black 2.” In the wake of the police killing of George Floyd that lead to the recent protests against systemic racism, many artists have been speaking out on the violence that Black people have endured at the hands of police for decades. Buddy is among those who are using their music to shed light on these issues with his new song “Black 2.” Serving as a sequel to his song “Black” with A$AP Ferg off his 2018 debut album, Harlan & Alondra, “Black 2” highlights just how much society loves to claim Black culture as their own but often ignores the reality of being Black in America and fails to protect Black lives.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, yup
Sound ’bout right
No, nope, that sounds, that sound ’bout right
Uh-huh, yeah
No, you ain’t, you ain’t never telled a lie
You ain’t told a lie
Yeah, uh
[Verse 1]
Everybody wanna be an athlete (Athlete)
Everybody wanna rap on beats (Rap on beats)
Everybody wanna eat watermelon and fried chicken (Yeah, yeah)
But, sorry, it’s a black thing (It’s a black thing)
Everybody wanna hit after me (After me)
Watch your back ’cause they after me (After me)
Got different women up in my living room tryna measure my dick
Maybe it’s a black thing (It’s a black thing)
Don’t sub-tweet, at me (At me)
We was kickin’ freestyles in the backseat (Backseat)
We was ditchin’ classrooms, thinkin’ gladly (Gladly)
We would buy and sell drugs in the alley, yeah
Finally got a pot I can piss in
Workin’ overtime, and you can tell if you listened
I don’t wanna find no diviner division
I be gettin’ high, nigga, it’s a black thing (It’s a black thing), yeah
Back shots ’til she knock me (Knock me)
I be on new shit, so they copy, the debauchery
Go ahead then, watch me, nigga
Don’t watch TV (Don’t watch TV)
You can get it all on CD (CD)
Vinyl is homicidal, every time you at my recital
I will serve you like appetizers
You should know, nigga, I’m your idol, I’m your idol now
[Chorus]
Grew up in the west bumpin’ Dogg, Pound and Jigga
Everybody wanna be black, don’t nobody wanna be a nigga, uh
Feel like Malcolm X, peekin’ outside my window
Everybody wanna be black, but don’t nobody wanna be a nigga, uh
[Verse 2]
Everybody tryna get dreads and shit (Dreads and shit)
But they ain’t African (African)
All the light girls gettin’ a tan so they can darken they skin
I’m sorry, it’s a black thing (It’s a black thing)
I don’t give a fuck, yeah, I said the shit (Said the shit)
Peep the rhetoric (Rhetoric)
Everybody wanna design somethin’ for Louis Vuitton
But, baby, it’s a black thing (It’s a black thing)
Blacked out in the backseat of the black Jeep
Listening to “Black” by me (By me)
Or you can catch me at Taste of Soul
Eating on gumbo with the black-eyed peas, yeah
Black on black on black, nigga
I’m back on, back on track
My shit black-owned
If you ain’t a nigga, then you can’t say “nigga”
It’s a black thing (It’s a black thing), yeah
Spike Lee, Do the Right Thing (Right thing), uh
Don’t step on my Nikes, just got these
Go rogue for the neckpiece, nigga
Yup, in my white tee (Yup)
Know you wanna be just like me, huh?
‘Til the police wanna lock me up
Chevy on creep, black Air Force 1’s
We just gon’ beat ’em
We just gon’ be, you can ask ’bout me
[Chorus]
Grew up in the west bumpin’ Dogg, Pound and Jigga
Everybody wanna be black, don’t nobody wanna be a nigga, uh
Feel like Malcolm X, peekin’ outside my window
Everybody wanna be black, but don’t nobody wanna be a nigga, uh
