Wendy Williams, Roland Martin, Oprah Winfrey, 50 Cent on CNN



Uploaded by: boycewatkins
Video Description:
Boyce Watkins, Wendy Williams and Roland Martin are on CNN's Paula Zahn Now to discuss 50 Cent v. Oprah Winfrey. There was a feud going on between the rapper and Oprah, which led to tremendous chaos in the hip hop community. Watkins appeared with Williams on her show many times on WBLS in New York to help mediate the dispute. He also appeared with Williams later in the year to discuss the Jena 6 case with Al Sharpton. Finally, Watkins proposed marriage to his fiance, Romana Lavalas, on Wendy's show, leading to a national frenzy over his engagement. Wendy described Watkins as "One of the most eligible bachelors in America", which was part of the reason for her shock at his sudden wedding proposal in front of 11 million people.
Dr. Watkins has also directly challenged Bill O'Reilly (O'Reilly Factor) on their racism and has referred to Juan Williams, a black FOX News analyst as "the eternally happy negro". Watkins is a regular contributor on issues related to Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and the 2008 presidential campaign. He has also commented on the rapper 50 Cent, Kanye West and other members of the hip hop community. His site is www.BoyceWatkins.com.
Dr. Watkins is a regular guest on CNN, FOX News, BET, CBS, ESPN, and other national media. He was the source of some controversy with Bill O'Reilly from the O'Reilly Factor, and has been a guest on other Fox Shows such as Hannity & Colmes. He has also publicly disputed Bill Cosby for stating that african-american youth and the hip hop generation are not very productive. Watkins wrote "What if George Bush were a Black Man?" and "Everything you ever wanted to know about college", which he argues is an appeal to the MTV generation to look past 50 Cent, Lil Wayne, TI, Kanye West and others to explore their educational potential. Dr. Boyce is a Finance Professor at Syracuse University and a graduate of The Ohio State University. He recently spoke at The University of Kentucky and demanded that they increase their numbers of black students and faculty. He was also one of the instrumental black leaders behind the scenes during the cases with the Jena 6, Don Imus and Michael Vick. He worked closely with Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson, appearing on the air with them to suggest strategies to get Imus off the air. It was Dr. Watkins' idea to challenge his corporate sponsors that led to Imus' dismissal. He was also outspoken on Ba
rry Bonds' situation and the OJ Simpson trial. Watkins argues that Barry Bonds might be a jerk, but his alleged indiscretion is no worse than the evidence against Lance Armstrong for the use of performance enhancing drugs. He made his comments on the Tom Joyner Morning Show, The Wendy Williams Experience, CNN, FOX, BET, CBS and other networks.

Elitism attitudes ... ( 2 months ago by mauobdeb)
Elitism attitudes further the distance between the older blacks( men & women). Oprah has graduated pass black & white; she is nether. She is an industry; all choices that she makes is no longer her own. She is the representation of what black people should be; according to white society. She makes her money off of what they deem entertainment.Funny,white society buy more gangster music than any ethnic group. She was auction off a long time ago;watch the progressive of her shows(inform.2gossip).

Wow,you are very ignorant!Oprah represent black people well,people well in general..As far as 50cents his stage name represent him well.He is half of everything in this society that is wrong with young people particularly in your generation.I am a successful African American male.I`m a husband too my wife,father too my children and a positive influence to my community,does this mean I`m acting white?Oprah is also a positive figure in her community.What positive role is 20cent playing?

If tere's one term i can't stand... it's talking about somebody being "black enough"
Black is just a skin color. If "black enough" means you as an Afro-American support violence against women, drug use, being a "thug", and crime, do not be angry at the stereotypes about black people.

The answer is no; ... ( 3 weeks ago by 1CJ420)
The answer is no; we don't have to choose sides between Oprah and rap. Like Wendy Williams said, Oprah was not a chid of hip-hop. She's an older woman who's not in tune with the pulse of today's urban youth. As for 50, I respect the fact that he stands his ground by being true to his art and basically doesn't give a fuck if Oprah "gets it" or doesn't. Both of them are great at what they do.
We don't need this ... ( 1 week ago by KuuMeKuuChah)
We don't need this inner-racial dispute. It's a question of taste of music, not "blackness." I like Hip-Hop and R&B but Oprah doesn't have to. She can bring whoever she wants on her show. 50 Cent can write whatever he wants in his songs. They should just stay separate of one another and not saying anything about each other.
Besides, there's no reason for 50 Cent or any other rapper to say that we can't do anything anymore. We have one of our own as President.
