I guess I have a hard time recognizing racism. Someone always has to point it out to me. I wasn't offended.

If you notice many commercials have nothing to do with the sponsor .

Have you seen the new Anna's Linen commercial with fat naked guy washing the neighbors car? Wtf does that have to do with anything?

My question would be...is it racist when it was made by a rapper?

I think its one of the dumbest commercial's I have ever seen.

This. Exactly this. PepsiCo managed to offend black men, crime victims, and morally ambiguous cops all in one commercial. It is a stupid, tasteless, unfunny commercial. However, since it was produced by a black rapper, it can't TECHNICALLY be racist, can it?

Get with the times pal, everything the thought police don't like is racist.

That's what I'm thinking... it's a horrible commercial no matter what it's attempting to sell. It has nothing to do with nothing.
