That’s right Colin, screw that song. I don’t stand up for it either
He considers himself black and African American.
He looks like Kenny from South Park

Many Egyptians are subsharan African black mixed in the current times. There is no dividing line people migrate and mix. And there are black Egyptians I personally know one.
Looks nothing like African American!
Thought he was a full Middle Eastern, like Palestinian or something.
Crazy….
