00:00I'll never forget I met an American in South Africa and he said to me said well
00:04you know Trevor it's funny you say that because because if you come out to
00:06America they'll they'll label you as black I said really and he was like hell
00:12yeah oh yeah everybody's black out there I was like wow well I want to be black
00:21and I found out it's true mixed-race people are categorized as black in
00:26America yeah the only catches and nobody tells you this you have to be liked and
00:31successful first before then they say you mixed you achieve success and you get
00:37upgraded to black all the famous mixed people do it singers like Alicia Keys and
00:42Mariah Carey yeah mixed but then they say black singers sportsmen like Tiger Woods
00:49mixed but then they say black golfer most famous mixed person on the planet by far
00:54Barack Obama mixed half and half straight down the middle but then they say
00:57America's first black presidents which is interesting because when he was running
01:01they called him the mixed candidates I see how it works everyone makes it obvious
01:07now they're like yeah yeah Barack of course he won of course it wasn't that
01:10obvious when he started it wasn't I remember comedians coming out they used
01:13to diss him guys would come out on stage and be like man how many of y'all seen that
01:16crazy ass mixed fool run of a president y'all seen that mixed fool run of a
01:20president where you don't see ain't no mixed fool gonna be president United States
01:23of America ain't no man man which white people gonna be voting for a mixed fool
01:27even a black man can't win shit even a black man get how some mixed fool think he
01:32gonna do it out man that mixed fool that crazy ass mixed fool how some mixed fool that
01:35mixed fool and then he won and all of a sudden they were like my nigga
01:50so I see how it works you know I understand in order for me to become black I have to
01:54work hard
01:55at it and I'm willing to do the time yeah I uh I took the first opportunity I could bought
02:05myself a plane
02:05ticket from South Africa and I said I'm going out to America I'm going there and
02:09I'm going to be black and I got on that plane it was an 18-hour flight 18 hours of
02:15non-stop flying and I sat there in my chair and I spent every moment practicing
02:21being black just practicing I was like I'm not gonna mess up this black opportunity I
02:27just sat there just working through everything I was watching every black
02:30movie and TV show just going through it yeah yeah yeah yeah you know I mean you know I mean
02:38yeah
02:40yeah King Kong ain't got shit on me yeah what you talking about Willis I was just grinding it you
02:50laugh but 18 hours of flying and I landed in JFK and I was fluent in my black American for
02:56shizzle
02:56my nizzle I was just I was walking around I was so black I was even laughing black I was
03:01like ha ha ha
03:03ha ha ha yeah my man ha ha should have seen me like oh this you this you that has
03:12to be the
03:13personification of cool in my opinion there's nothing cooler there's a black Americans are so cool
03:17they can make you feel good about yourself just by asking if you are you you don't believe me get
03:24a
03:24black American man to come up to you and just be like ayo ayo this you nah nah this you
03:29this you
03:30this you and you'll be like I think it is
03:39it's magic
03:43I was that black not just any black but the coolest black in the world and that's American black
03:49I can say this with confidence being from Africa I ain't no black I'm well versed in the arts of
03:54black I'm from the black factory I mean it I've seen every kind of black from light black all the
04:00way to like navy blue black I know I know black and there's no cooler black than American black
04:06nothing cooler you know because American black people I mean you just look at how much they've
04:11done to influence modern-day pop culture you know small things and the bigger like you look at the music
04:17you got you know jazz hip-hop R&B all black Americans style of clothing you know just this
04:24general swag that they've brought to everything even small things like walking I mean walking is
04:29such a mundane activity isn't it it's just a very this is very there's nothing cool about this thing you
04:34just you just move from one place to the next and and pretty much everybody can do it this is
04:38this is
04:39it there's nothing and then black Americans came along and then they just added in that bounce and
04:44then and all of a sudden you look really cool you just you know you look like you have a
04:49purpose you've
04:49just got that yeah look at this super cool and it must be hard for an assassin to kill you
04:54just like
04:57that's why if you look in American history no black man was ever assassinated whilst walking ever
05:03so it was when they stopped and said something bang that's when they were because they got to walk
05:07that's why if you look Obama every time he comes out of the Jets or makes a speech he's always
05:11just
05:11got that little bounce just before because in his head he's like you never know you never know
05:15you never know you never know you never know you never know you never know it's not the walk
05:24it's a cool walk and by far the coolest thing of all coolest thing of all is the talk I've
05:31listened
05:31to black Americans and it's the most amazing use of the English language I've ever come across in my life
05:37because they pay no regard to punctuation whatsoever it's cruised through sentences
05:43it's fantastic first time I had a conversation with a black American man was in Baltimore Maryland
05:49this guy walked up to me after the show he didn't even walk he just floated in
