yeah theres plenty of racial..whatever on this site, but this seems like a valid topic to me. havent you heard a really soulful dude who ended up being white, or a really white-sounding dude that turned out to be black? heres mine:i thought Steve Colt was black.i thought Malcolm Mooney was white.

    same goes for me wit' Klaus Weiss (Weiss = White)... hahahahahaha

    Seriously though, when I was young (still a kid) I thought Ramsey Lewis was white... my dad used to play his records. I never looked at the record covers. I thought it's German music... I thought my parents were playing German music all the time... Aretha Franklin, Fela Kuti, Isaac Hayes were white in my eyes... hahahahahahaha

    In my private mind garden, the only "black" musician was Roberto Blanco (a German Schlager singer):







    ROBERTO BLANCO (blanco = white)

    I thought Kelis was a white girl - that 'I hate you so much right now' garbage sounded like an attempt by the Neptunes to cash in on the Alanis/Fiona 'angry' thing.

    yeah, i had to read in a interview where she flat out said 'i am white' to believe she was. i always thought she was pr or a light skinned black woman.

    Well, she's an 'honorary' black, in my book.
