I maybe late but I found this out last year after really listening to the lyrics. As a kid, I wasn’t really listening intently but this song is clearly about racism against black people lmaooooo. The fact that this song became a meme since it’s a really serious song is crazy

.. you unlocked a memory and wow would have never really known this

back when youtube was raw

wow didnt know this
remember when cudi made this cideo wtih vashti dancing to it

Classic

just in time for the mj movie

bruh rappin like john witherspoon

“Chocolate rain, raised the neighborhood insurance rates”

“Chocolate rain, The same crime has a higher price to pay
chocolate Rain
The judge and jury swear it's not the face”

Bruh really was writing his ass off on this song

"turns their body into gdp" is a bar

Yea, didn’t know it when it first came out, but maybe a year or 2 later, I was made aware by one of my friends

The f***ed up part is that’s probably why it became a meme

People forget that it initially blew up on 4chan, a notoriously racist sewer of the internet that we’re slowly discovering through the Epstein emails that JE had a good amount of influence on the creator of that site, and low-key astroturfed a slow influx of far right ideology on there

Think I realized it when he talked about it on Tosh.O but I never really listened to it just knew it was a meme

How did adults see this song and say “hahaha! This is a funny song!”

Like bruh appearance is funny but come on man lmaoooooo.

I remember him talking about it in a interview take me back to 2006 a simpler time

They saying "Hey Kanye"
"We need you to go deeper than Tay Zonday"
'Cause my verses got pain, Chocolate Rain

Bruh is so OG

in an alternate universe, the world is forever changed when Ye finds this video online & signs him to good music instead of Big Sean

their version of Graduation would be pro-black stadium status jazz fusion music

breathes away from mic

really shows how tone and delivery can shift something. because i completely miss that.

Damn

everybody knows this my guy. white people memed it on purpose.

Yeah, it was a dark track when you dug under.
