Do you think Alicia Keys is another angry person?!
Question: Another of Alicia Keys theories: That the bicoastal feud between slain rappers Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G. was fueled "by the government and the media, to stop another great black leader from existing."
Keys, 27, said she's read several Black Panther autobiographies and wears a gold AK-47 pendant around her neck "to symbolize strength, power and killing 'em dead," according to an interview in the magazine's May issue, on newsstands Tuesday.
There's another side to Alicia Keys: conspiracy theorist. The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter tells Blender magazine: "`Gangsta rap' was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. `Gangsta rap' didn't exist."
Keys' AK-47 jewelry came as a surprise to her mother, who is quoted as telling Blender: "She wears what? That doesn't sound like Alicia." Keys' publicist, Theola Borden, said Keys was on vacation and unavailable for comment.
Though she's known for her romantic tunes, she told Blender that she wants to write more political songs. If black leaders such as the late Black Panther Huey Newton "had the outlets our musicians have today, it'd be global. I have to figure out a way to do it myself," she said.

I was a fan of Ms. Keys, but now am rethinking my judgement. It scares me to think she wears a necklace of an AK-47 around her neck and thinks Tupac Shakur and Notorious BIG could have been great leaders. Next thing she will be making songs about killing cops and women and children. She is another angry black woman who is sputtering nonsense.
She needs to shut her stupid racist pie-hole.
I just think she's a worthless idiot.
When someone wants a little attention they say something outrageous to get people talking about them.
can we really call her an angry black woman. i think maybe she doesnt believe she is excepted by black people so she is saying stuff she thinks we care about. tupac and biggie were no greater than the rappers of today but you don't see the gov killing them. and i guess they were not gangsters who were rapping. gangster rap did exist and the possible great leader tupac was one of them
