GUESS WHO: WITH GRANDMA AT KNICKS GAME

Saturday, January 3, 2009

Guess who was spotted at last night’s Knicks game with his grandma. Hint: This funny man discovered earlier this year he descended from the Udeme people of northern Cameroon and that he is 20% Caucasian.

It’s Chris Rock! He and his grandma watched the Knicks lose to the Pacers 105-103. Earlier this year, Rock’s family history was profiled on the PBS series African American Lives 2.

Chris: Granny, want to go to the game? Come on, Granny, let’s go to the game!!!
Granny: Okay baby, but you know I don’t know nothing about basketball.
Chris: Come on Granny, you going to enjoy the game. Maybe you will see your idol”Billy Dee Willians” lol!
Granny: Okay baby, you sure he going to be there?
Chris: Yeah Granny, he aint nothing but 150 years old, lol!
Granny: Okay baby!
Granny at the game: I don’t see no “Billy Dee” lol oh well, at least I’m with sitting front row with my baby Chris; that’s what’s important.

Once you said “funny man,” I was thinking it had to have been Chris Rock or Dave Chappelle. That’s nice to take your elders out to fun activities like that..and to be courtside doing it too!!!

Every Black person is America is mixed. Those slave master was always raping our Grandmothers. It’s sad, but it’s true. Don’t judge people by their skin colors; we are all mixed. Even the darkest person is mixed.

Angie.Who

Saturday, January 3, 2009 /

Wow! Mack are you serious with that damn statement. Have you seen Heidi Klum and Seal sons? As black is Seal is and as white as Heidi is. Their sons are half and half. Being black is the dominant color what do you expect a person with 20% to look like? hahahaha!

Look at his Grandmother…not as dark as Chris, neither is his Mom!

CL, why did you put that piece in? you know blacks don’t know how to handle “skin color” lol!

@22

Sade– I think I read somewhere that the company that does that will send you a kit for “X” amount of money and you take a swab of inside your mouth and then send it back to that company. Then they can analyze that in their lab or whatever and let you know what your origin.

I think I read that on the Loop awhile ago on one of their older posts.

Here is the information for all who want to trace their African roots. I don’t think the price is unreasonable at all. You will gain something money can’t buy. Good Luck to all.

People, don’t forget that you can’t always tell people’s ancestry from their names. Sade is also the name of a popular singer, and the girl might simply be named after her.

My favorite comedian. His wife Malaak is stunning!

Sad thing is that a lot of self hating black folks go out of their way to emphasize their “non-black” ancestary—like someone might have a great-grandma who was half Mexican, they’ll hype it so it can remove any trace of black from themselves. Denial and self-hatred are diseases SMH.

@ #55
Excuse me, okay? I sometimes forget the power of the internet and was basically talking to the US audience. I’m a human being you know. Will you except my apology? Come on, you know I didn’t mean that just for African-Americans. I know AA have problems with their skin color; and like number 51 said, they will hype up their percentage of something and deny their black or African-ness. So, since it got you in bunches.

It’s no “pure” race period on this earth. None! We all came from Adam and Eve who happen to be black according to scientist.

Didn’t mean to make your blood pressure go up dear.

Pure race doesn’t exist any where on this planet Earth.

Again, Chris Rock’s Grand Mother is so cute!!!!! Can you love someone just by looking at her? LOL! She reminds me of my GrandMother, she is so sweet, but if you acted a fool. She would tear that a$$ up and then feed you some good a$$ pie, on top of that, my Granny was so cooled about it, she wouldn’t even sweat. Loves her to death.

Yes, this is the sweetest photo I’ve seen on here in a long time.

@ 59 LOL! We will not let you little heathen to mess over GrandMa Rock’s post!!! Fall back please!!!!

This post is about Sweet GrandMa Rock!!!!!!

Hey Grand Ma Rock, We at Concrete Loop Loves us some YOU!!!!!!!

Awwwwwwww! I miss my Grandma!!!!

Even us Africans are mixed. I am torn between being Zimbabwean, South African or Mozambican. It’s not that simple. And yes Angel dear, you are just not appealing to the AA’s alone. We loves you in these parts too. I respect your work because you respect everyone. It is evidenced by the diversity of our postings. I think you are a grounded woman.

Someone spoke about Sade the famous singer. She IS Nigerian. She may be mixed but she is Nigerian. So yeah…the name is Nigerian. Even i know that. I would encourage a lot of you to check out that DNA place. I am African and I have decent sense of who I am but my history narration is disrupted after my great grand father. I want to find out more and leave some history fr my son. So yeah, it is for all of us to explore and consequently write our OWN history. Most of our history was passed down verbally so most of it is lost but thankfully not ALL!

Dang, if the second pic would’ve been the “Guess Who” pic, I would’ve gotten it. He has some unusual hands. LOL!

And yes, that’s fine a** Leon. Where in the world has he been? I know he’s played in a number of movies but “The Five Heartbeats” is the first to come to mind. He sho’ was a fine drunk.

Hmm..mm…mmm…

@ 62…Beyonce is at best when she’s not talking. Am I the only one who thinks she CAN NOT speak? She’s so hood. Everytime she opens her mouth, I cringe. I mean, the girl can sing, but that’s all. She’s nowhere a triple threat.

71.

Monday, January 5, 2009 /

I think thats wonderful he out having fun with his granny! Some of the comments about Leon are way off. If you look directly to the right good people you would see that the man wearing the hat is Leon not the man sitting behind Chris.

72.

Awww how sweet! Maybe his grandma was cold!! Dang people..lol…and LEON!!! mmmmmmmmmmmmm!!! I love him too!!

Monday, January 5, 2009 /

how come no one wanted to talk about the fact the LEON is there….now that is what we should be talking about!

LMAO!!!!!!!!

74.

let's not lie

Monday, January 5, 2009 /

leon was fineeee in every movie i saw him in. it seems like he still looks good. i think that might just be someone that looks like him though

and oh yeah chris. i knew it was him anyway. i think the reason why some ppl talk about their non-black blood is not b/c they want to be less black (like someone else stated) but they want to show that race is not clear cut like everyone thinks it is. most of my white friends (and even black friends) make assumptions about people’s racial background based on coloring. you might be able to make general guesses but at the end of the day, you never know. most people aren’t fully anything.

75.

BronxBabii

Monday, January 5, 2009 /

why yall so pressed about the 20% thing.ALL black americans in usa have that much caucasion.most even have more from marriage after slavery.that’s why us and africans don’t normally look alike.i knew it was chris because i read about his ancestry from that show once.

to find out your ancestry cost between $50(on a extremely good day,but it’s recession time now)-$200..it isn’t expensive at all.i was expecting it to be thousands of dollars with high-tec s*** and whatnot.lol
