Thanks for refering to my interview with the Black Kids.

However, the name of the website (in case anyone else wants to check it out) is actually www.richsrantroom.com

go check it out everyone--the Black Kids are destined for stardom and Reggie is as compelling in the Q&A as he is on stage.

Thanks, Rich. Sorry for the error, it's been corrected.

I agree, Black Kids are gonna blow up. It's inevitable.

someone that is "half black, half filipino" is still a "whole black person". can we please allow the mixed folk to be whole people too? thanks...

I see what you're saying. That was poor phrasing on my part. I didn't mean to imply that they as people were any less "whole." I was referencing the user's comment on The Yellow Stereo about "crunching the numbers" and only coming up with "one black kid." I should have made that more clear.

But I agree -- saying that two people who are half black make up "one black kid," or a "whole black person" isn't the right way to describe it. Apologies to anyone i offended.

i could see many black people being a bit ticked off at the rather smarmy comment about Jesse Jackson in the interview and i wonder how many would shrug off the "depends on your concept of black kids" if they were named "Chinese kids" or "Vietnamese Kids" or if some Black group named themselves "white kids".
Just a thought.

I don't find 'Chinese Kids' or Vietnamese Kids' offensive phrasing. What's offensive about it? It's not as if that phrase alone is a standalone attack on those kids. Look, I'm all for political correctness, but when you focus so much on being so P.C., the paradox then becomes that you actually isolate them more when you focus on differences, just like that Southpark episode where they throw a parade for the nurse with the dead fetus attached to her face. Try to figure out why the concept of 'black kids' is so offensive to you, and then question why it is so.

there name should Rich Kids.
its money behind the band not unique awe inspiring talent.

the black kids obviously named themselves this to get attention, because god knows this music isnt going to do it for them, alone. its above average bad and proves that quite a large number of people definitely believe what they read and believe the hype. listen to the papercuts or margot and the nuclear so and so's or seabear and then tell me that this band has talent. come the fuck on.

I have seen postings of them on other blogs blogs. The reviews were good. What genre of music do they make and are they really that bad? How does this name gets them attention?
