Don't waste your time questionning Wyclef's jamaican accent. The man clearly represents Haiti to the fullest. There's a pre and post Wyclef era when it comes to young Haitian kids in the U.S. Pre, we got a bad rep and some of us even hid our heritage publicly. Post, we shout out where we're from at any given opportunity.

Jackpot and Wyclef Jean
It has now become cool to be Haitian. Years after Clef stepped onto the Grammy stage with a huge Haitian flag, rappers like T.I. and Lil' Wayne are seen shouting sak pase (what's up in creole) or sporting Haitian flags wrapped around their heads. Furthermore, being down with us apparently gives you street cred. 50 Cent and Cam'Ron even argued over who's closer to Zoe Pound. You better ask somebody! I recently caught up with Clef and asked him why shouting us out has become so common.
Watch Clef Speak On How Cool Haitians Are
Comments (56)
yeah, that new T.I video with Clef part of it was shot here in Miami in the Little Haiti neighborhood, so are lots of other videos. even parts of Bad Boys 1 & 2 were shot there also. I guess its an important section of town.

It is not "cool" to be down with Haitians. Nobody openly disses Haitians anymore but it's not like if I'm down with Haitians, I get street cred. Zoe Pound is only deep in Miami, just like Cubans. You go anywhere else in the US and there are barely any haitians, even in NY which is full of West Indians. These same West Indians talk shit about Haitians.

They are my niggaz before anything else!! You can find bums, stank people, and ingnorance in ANY culture. Instead of making fun of the way Haiti is, learn your history FOOL!!!! Haiti was the FIRST black nation to gain their independence from white countries. Respect that!!!!!!!! That was in the early 1800's......black Americans didn't get there till the 1960's!!! We need to unite & educate......not divide and hate!

Im latino and the fact that you have black americans belittling other blacks is ridiculous. Haitians speak 4 languages man, not many people can do that. Haitians are very respectfull too and have alot of class. Always smiling, doing their work and raising their children. So how are they dispicable? I wish that the DR govt was overthrown because it is run by a bunch of Spain/US puppets. Haiti is still paying for reparations to France. That is a war crime on the part of France. No wonder those Africans rioted over there. No justice , no peace.

For most of you that don't know (and it seems most of you don't since you're all saying ignorant shit) whether you're Jamaican, Haitians or whatever the fuck u claim to be, we're all just Africains.
You think a white dude will take the time to bunch us up in little clicks???? And besides we all come from there so whether you're Haitian and you're neighbor is whatever else that's BLACK, he may have been your neighbor back in Africa.
Second, for some of you who don't know their history, Haiti was the first black country that got their independance and by my saying GOT it's not exactly that. THEY TOOK THEIR INDEPENDANCE. Since then, the whites never forgot that and is a reason why the country is what it is today not getting the help it should. Many haitians are treated as slaves in other countries and mixed races own all riches over there and don't give back nothing to the people.
Most black countries that are in good shape, mostly West Indians, are still subordinate to countries like Spain and England. Sure, the situation is better but they'll never be independant and never totally have the country.
Haitians got heart and don't ever forget that. They're straight warriors and fought like NO OTHER BLACK NATION HAS. EVER........ 1804-2007 RECOGNIZE!!!!!

Haiti always going to be mix in propaganda and other shit because The Haitian people represent unity,power,and black pride something American and the European union try so hard to establish us not to be. They have embargo against Haiti and they making the country suffer because the Haitians embarrass the slave institutions. Haiti always going to pay the price for that, freedom come with a price and this hateful shit ya saying "everyone should pick up a book and educate themselves about BLACK HISTORY", until then the ignorance is still going to happen not only about Haitians, but about Africans because knowing yourself is empowering, and most black Americans are not.

The only reason Haiti is fucked up is because the European Union and the USA is making an example out of Haiti for being the first black republic and the other reason why so many people talk shit about Haitians is either they have a lack of education and some have to do with the europeans spreading propaganda about haiti on there colonial Islands cause they fear slaves would rebell the way the Haitians did and that's the only way to keep us seperated.

And the whites that are talking negative need to check themselves because Haiti is the poorest country in the western hemisphere , They can only go UP from here , WHY front on that. GROW THE FUCK UP yall. If any teens are reading this shit, stop now and don't listen to these cornballs, Please read books abouts Haiti and Toussaint not these hidded cowards behind pc screens. Haitians, watch what you say fam, lets be classy. Were on our way up. Why insult somebody else,Humble yourselves. Let history tell it. WE will get our shit together and make home as beautiful as it once was, I promise. Lets get the old heads out of there and reclaime it. We have an internal fight. Lets end this garbage era.

Why would you be hatin on other black people? Thats why blacks NEVER succeed as a group, because of stupid little biases. You carribeans, west indian, spanish, african niggas be thinkin yall better than us, for some reason. Maybe if blacks werent so fuckin divisive and stupid we could succeed as a group, instead of being laughed at for fighting over crumbs. I dont owe no haitian shit. You guys liberated yourselves, thats respectable. But dont steretype other blacks, especially american ones, like ya dont know OUR history. We had slave uprisings too, but we also had a super powerful white government. Haiti was like 97% black back then, so it wasnt as hard. You guys lived on a fuckin ISLAND.

If most black people knew about Haitian history and struggle, that shit would empower them, the Europeans and the united states hide Haitians history from there education system because they felt that shit would encourage black youths to upraise against this crippling mind state they set for us. Remember they isolate Haiti from the rest of the Caribbean nations because they found out around 1805 Haitians was going into Jamaica, Barbados and other country around the island to free slaves. Haiti free 13 countries in Latin America, we fought side by side with the Latinos to help them and they turn there back on Haiti because they wanted to be more like Europeans and white Americans. Haitian history is real deep, but I encourage people to read and don't get misinformation that is lay-out by the media. I guess now people starting to read more about Haiti history and understand the culture(Black pride lives in Haiti).

To Quarta P,
It was harder for the Haitians to up rise because not only they defeated the French superpower; they defeated the British & Spain. Three superpowers of that time. Haiti going to pay the price for that for a long time. All the other Carib nations maybe better off then Haiti economically but still colonialized. I think as of right now in 2007 there is no FREE CARIBBEAN nation including Haiti, all CARICOM NATIONS report to there colonial masters, same story goes for Africa. They claim (white people) Haiti is the poorest country in the west but put the Haitian dollar against a lot of other countries in the west, you will conclude something wrong with this picture, something fishy is going on because it will not be that far greater or Haitian dollar would be a little stronger. We living in the new world order and ya here being blind and disrespectful. LET GOD HELP BLACK PEOPLE!!!!

Some went to Haiti and some went to Jamaican and others went all over the Caribbean. if you are talking about Haitians you are talking about yourself. When you say "Y'all need to go back to Haiti" last time I checked the white man wants all of us back in Africa. EVERYONE in America came from somewhere else. Italians migrated here, lets just say everyone except the American Indians. So all in all Haitians have the right to be here just as much as any other race. I got Haitian friends working for Microsoft the biggest software company in the word that tells you something. We African Americans don't have the discipline that but they do.

I know this might be shocking to most of you Black folks that claim to be American (or Canadian too) but these countries we currently live in (Canada, US) once belonged to the Indians which were ALL SLAIN.

I aint NEVER killed no indians. I got alittle indian ancestry. Shows what YOU know about american history, cause blacks and indians were usually together on most topics, because they both came from the worst american struggles. American blacks arent really "african". Its just how we are. Since the first generation of blacks came to america, they been trying to push that african shit out of us. And it worked. Whites had 300 plus years to fuck our heads up. I dont hate nobody tho. I HEARD that "irregular" black people DONT LIKE US, because YOU think we are ignorant and stupid. Well, being American people, we feel, you diss me, ima diss you. But dont get me wrong. I think if blacks would get over petty shit we could easily succeed. But ALL over the world you see blacks fighting over bullshit. Im from LA, we got bloods and crips. Im sure the carribean and west indies and spanish niggas got similar shit goin on. And we all know how fucked up africa is. Divide and conquer. Who is divided and who is conquering shit?? LOL, white people be knowin what they talkin bout huh??

Im not saying you killed any Indians, but America was built on the bloods of the Indians and one thing i do respect a lot about them is that they couldnt be assimulated with the whites. Most Indians died because to them, it was better to die an free Indian than a slave Indian. Blacks somewhat submitted and many were actually sold to whites by other rich blacks africans. Not saying it's our fault but sometimes i think about it...would America be what it is if our ancestors fought and died instead of submitting???? Would blacks be looked upon the same way???? Would Africa be the way it is today???? One things for sure, there'd be way less of us....

Black slaves didnt "submit". They were captured people from tribal wars, sold to europeans so some african kingdoms could have guns and spices and shit. Blacks been trying to get over on each other, while the white man gettin over on us, ever since Euros touched down in Africa. Kinda like house niggas selling out today. Kinda like niggas who in prison cause other niggas snitchin, and we killin each other over stupid shit nowadays. Plenty of africans jumped off those ships, and plenty ran away. But when you been separated from your fam, at the bottom of a dirty ass boat, you been beat down, you hungry as shit, bummy than a muthafucka, what can you do?? Fight everybody all the time?? Where you think that "aggressive" stereotype came from?? We prolly would have been "looked upon" better if we never had a "slave trade" in the first place. But everything that has already happend is done. And if they taught black kids in american hoods about Haiti, there would be too much black pride for the white supremacist system to succeed. Nobody tells american blacks nuthin about nuthin. If you wanna learn some real shit, the REAL shit, you gotta find out on your own. And then you look crazy or like Malcolm x or Farakan when you try to educate these other hood niggas.

Some of these people making ignorant ass comments are WHITE. I am black (creole) from L.A. and I tell you growin up on the block I would have to fight twice, just because I am light. But the darker skin cats (not hatians) are constantly sellin out, CONSTANTLY. The WILLIE LYNCH RULES ARE STILL IN FULL EFFECT. People RAP IS ENTERTAINMENT, DO NOT FEED DIRECTLY IN TO IT, THE MUSIC IS NOT EVEN MADE FOR US ANYMORE. Then you got other races aint gone to say which one specifically that think they are "black" because they watch B.E.T.

This goes out to the the people who don't know any better. I'm Haitian and I'm proud of it. I will always say I'm Haitian not because I think I'm better than my fellow African Americans, because this is my identity. Haiti received its independence from the French in 1804. That means that my country was the first black republic ever. As a matter of fact, it is well known that The Haitian independence had a direct effect in the Americas since it encouraged blacks in the U.S to revolt. Now getting to the meat of the matter, who gave you the name African American?
the term Haitian was used by my father and my grandfather and his father before him. So while my people roamed the streets in freedom in the 18th century, the American black was known as "property" under the United states constitution and according to the Dred Scott decision was not even recognized as having the full rights a human being. (again I am not trying to say we are better, but these are just hard facts)so basically my grandfather and his father before him did not know the term "nigger" nor did he ever think he was mentally inferior to the white man since we defeated him in battle and took our freedom. The whole point of this is to say that Haitians deserve respect for being the first to achieve freedom. By the same token my African American brothers have achieved more than any other blacks in terms of wealth, inventions, music and litterature. We all have something to contribute, we have the same continent that ties us together Africa.
