Dave's Brits Performance

[WaterOffADucksCrack]

I personally loved it. I had goosebumps watching it and I loved hearing the audience's positive reaction. It highlights how much racism is still around and how far we have to go. Even added in about our Prime Minister being racist and the blatant difference in the treatment of Meghan and Kate. "The least racist is still racist" was one of my favourite lines.

However, over 200 complaints calling Dave racist! What do you think of the performance?

YABU: they're right to complain his performance was racist.

YANBU: they were wrong to complain his performance wasn't racist.

musicians don't have to rename themselves...its not a thing

Wow what a performance.

@HeresMe you really think some black people being successful means there's no racism? I think you need to listen back to that performance again and pay attention to the words.

The least racist is still racist

Like i said...excellent line

LaPoesieEstDansLaRue - perfection🤩

The least racist is still racist

It is, could be a reason why labour have been investigated for antisemitism

You still try to nitpick

The most stunning performance in every sense of the word. What a brilliant artist Dave is.

I'm not interested in listening to his music, I've heard stormzys stuff it's utter crap, just saying Dave is sorta generic as a artist name.

Labour

Where the fuck did labour come from...

You still try to nitpick

Nah...im just not engaging with someone who thinks nordic countries are more racist than the UK is some sort of gotcha

Off to bed anyway

I don't think he's that good. Love stormzy

Celebrating his murdering brother made me want to hurl. Amazing what people will be impressed by

I'm not interested in listening to his music, I've heard stormzys stuff it's utter crap, just saying Dave is sorta generic as a artist name. ah yes and because you've heard one black man's music you've heard all black people's music!

Justanotherlurker I am genuinely interested in your claim to have "got to know about Dave" in 2010, when he was a 12 year old school boy, due to the crime his brother committed. There would have been zero press interest in saying "Christopher Omoregie, whose brother is schoolboy David Omoregie..."
In what context did you learn about Dave in 2010?

Nothing to do with black people just saying what a crap name Dave is , surely he's more creative than that.

That's his literal name, you oddball I'm sure you were saying the same back in Madonna's and Cher's heyday though, right?

Kylie, Björk, Beyonce, Dido, Adele...

I think just being known as Dave is a stroke of genius in itself, in a world of Catfish and The Bottlemen and endless other contrivances.

@QuiQuaiQuod I think the problem with race is complex I have heard black people being racist but in a different way usually not directly to someone’s face. I have to say the majority of the time it’s white people that can be racists so much so they can have a mixed race child and feel no way about being racist.
Not all people but sadly some.
I’m baffled you get comments I’m 3/4 mix and my nana would not dare say such racists remarks!!
