"Nas‘ career has been full of controversy — from his beef with JAY-Z and Cam’ron to his strong political opinions and naming his ninth studio album N-gger only to have it changed to Untitled — and now the rapper is making waves again for a sculpture created in his honor.

According to reports, the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities recently opened an exhibit called “Kemet: Egypt in Hip-Hop, Jazz, Soul and Funk,” which examines the connection between Egyptian culture and Black music.

But what got folks riled up was the David Cortes statue “I Am Hip-Hop,” inspired by Nas’ famous album cover I Am… where he appears as King Tut.

Following the exhibit’s debut, an Egyptian antiquities expert blasted the museum, claiming that it made a “grave mistake” by “insulting Egyptian civilization by portraying Tutankhamun as Black.” The museum also received an onslaught of negative comments on social media.

Director of the museum Wim Weijland has defended the exhibit following complaints in a recent statement.

Weijland noted that while the Kemet exhibit “does not have an Afrocentric perspective on ancient Egypt” but it does help to “critically examine ideas presented in Black music.”

“The exhibition does not claim the ancient Egyptians were Black, but explores music by Black artists who refer to ancient Egypt and Nubia in their work: music videos, covers of record albums, photos, and contemporary artworks,” Weijland began.

“This music often reflects on the Black experience in the West and tells stories about the African diaspora and pre-colonial Africa, including ancient Egypt.”

He added: “The exhibition explains that the representations of ancient Egypt are imaginaries: artistic interpretations of ancient Egypt, not realistic images of ancient Egyptians. For example, the exhibition contains a modern sculpture that represents the musician Nas, modeled after the mask of Tutankhamun. The exhibition explains that it is a contemporary artwork, not a replica. The exhibition explains why and when it was made and clarifies that it is not an ancient Egyptian artifact.”

Those Arabs in Egypt are not the Ancient Egyptians.

They are documented invaders and need the shut the fu#k up.

Arab conquest of Egypt
The Muslim conquest of Egypt, led by the army of 'Amr ibn al-'As, took place between 639 and 646 AD and was overseen by the Rashidun Caliphate. It ended the seven-century-long period of Roman reign over Egypt that began in 30 BC. Byzantine rule in the country had been shaken, as Egypt had been conquered and occupied for a decade by the Sasanian Empire in 618–629, before being recovered by the Byzantine emperor Heraclius.

They are proven to be Black Africans.


[see video]

"AFROCENTRIC" IS A RACIST TERM CREATED BY LYING a$s WHITE jewS also.


[see video]


[see video]


America also claims all Black people in Egypt are actually White to keep their bullsh1t myth going:


[see video]

US Whites are a minority.

They've been claiming people that aren't White as White.

The White jews and KK- Americans are the ones that started all of this horse sh1t in the 1800s after France started reported on it.

They're incentive was clear: They didn't want to Black people they claimed as savages to be the founders of modern civilization. These mothafu#kas were getting rich off oppression of Black people.

So they had plenty of reasons to lie.

And lie they did.

Those Arabs in Egypt literally share NOTHING in common with Ancient Egyptian heritage, only Africans do.

I'm pretty sure Hip-Hop DX is run by racist. This isn't the first time they've supported anti-Black sh1t or promote KK- jew narratives.

They try to pass sh1t off as just "reporting" the news.


Henry Breasted and his gang of racist "Egyptologist"....started all of this.

Even claimed that the "darkest Africans" that accomplished anything were really White people lol

Hamites is the name formerly used for some Northern and Horn of Africa peoples in the context of a now-outdated model of dividing humanity into different races which was developed originally by Europeans in support of colonialism and slavery.[1][2][3][4] The term was originally borrowed from the Book of Genesis, where it is used for the descendants of Ham, son of Noah.
Just look up Charles Gabriel Seligman and Henry Breasteds racist history.

These were two of the main lying pieces of sh1t.

And remember in this tines, they did everything they could to keep knowledge out of the hands of Black people in America.

The internet just sped up the ability to fact check their lies so now they are panicking and trying to use their racist jew run organizations to keep spamming lies...like they've done their entire existence.

Just ask Rome, Spain, Egypt, Germany and every country they've been expelled from.

Hell. US AND Europe didn't want them in their countries during WW2 and declined to take them in.

You see the games they play, even if Ham was a black man then that would make the original inhabitants of North Africa and the Middle East black people though lol. In the Bible those lands were named after his sons Cush(Ethiopia), Mizraim(Egypt), Caanan(Lebanon/ Palestine) and Phut(Libya/Morocco). They lie so much that they get caught up in their own webs of deceit.

EDIT: Damn Seligman was a jew and promoted scientific racism and Breasted was funding by the Rockefellers. Very interesting and makes sense

Don't forget these White jews claimed that they built the Pyramids and were slaves in Egypt.

And then they claim that Black people were the slaved in Egypt.

They can't keep their lies straight.

Not one shred of evidence other than the fairytale book that White jews were ever slaves there or built any fu#king Pyramids.

Example:

So if Black people were the slaves...and slaves built the Pyramids...and the slaves left Egypt...then what are these European jews doing role-playing as Semites?

Here's a jew site saying Blacks were slaves and built the Pyramids

emoji


So...who and what are these White European jews? Lol

Semitic people are Black.

Ancient Egyptians were Black.

Romans were Black.

That is why the last EMPIRE OF EGYPT, before the Muslim Arabs invaded was run by the BYZANTINE EMPIRE AND NUBIA.

AKA EASTERN ROME AND SUDAN.

The important thing to remember is that if you were alive back then, the Egyptians wouldn't have claimed you.

Most of the people making anti-Black Egyptian history were WHITE jewS working with White Supremacist in America.

Henry Breasted was a White jew too.

America left him for dead when the n@ziS were running sh1t.

National Geographic and Science.org are run by racist White jews too.

He graduated from there in 1888, and attended Chicago Theological Seminary, but transferred to Yale University to study Hebrew.
