If you have to ask, the answer is always yes.

At least that's what every media outlet on the planet is telling me

It was always racist. Everything must be judged by today's standards. Tear it down.

Public Enemy’s Chuck D made Elvis Presley persona non grata for many hip-hop fans when he famously rapped in “Fight the Power”: “Elvis was a hero to most/But he never meant s— to me/Straight up racist that sucker was/Simple and plain.” (Flavor Flav finished off The King with the rhyme: “Motherf— him and John Wayne.”)


i truly think the person that is most racis’ is Chuck D.

Anything "white" related in any way, shape or form is racist.

Exactly, but, the white millenials will scream racist at you if you play it. As far as Elvis, I have a hard time believing he was racist.

I would wager the people who call Hank Williams Jr a racist have done ZERO research into his history involving his ties, great friendships, and collaborations with many great black artists throughout his career. He's a lot more diverse than just the so-called "redneck country" he is mostly known for. His greatest influence has always been the blues.
