Honestly i am black and i understand what u mean by this but i think we should just show our maturity and ignore it even if it was intentional or not

If it were a racist portrayal of a white dude (sniveling, nasally voice, hunched over the steering wheel with hands at 10 and 2, totally unable to dance, awkwardly polite even when slighted, basically everything black comedians say about us), then yeah, it would be racist. Would people be complaining about it as much? Probably not. Which is racist in of itself.
But the main point it- it was taken from a very racist caricature of black people from back in the day. I'm not saying that the poster deserves to be shot or anything because of it, all I was doing was explaining HOW it was racist. I`m not offended by it, I was just saying why it is offensive in general.
Also, I kind of wish it were longer, cause the beat`s pretty catchy.
