This Black Music is an alternative Black Music show. We do a lot of Black folk, Black country and Black avant-garde classical. We like to do a lot of conceptual Black music and we're going to explore today a very special subject. Purtin' it.

This is a song that we're going to play for you. I'll wait for you. In some moments, many lives, gives in space and so far place. Many lives, gives in space. Yes! Yes! Yes! Hey, what's up everybody? Yes, this is Black Music and we got to talk to you tonight about some of the current issues.

That's right, we're going to deal with Oscar's lab in our own way, which is conceptual. We take things personally. Humors meant to be a release. It is meant to help us release our problems of pain. That is why there's always a butt of the joke. Humors is always about something hurtful and are problematic. It is a gateway offered to move on to help us grow bigger than our own insecurities and feelings of self-importance. Some thought plays. Some thought plays. Life is a space. And it likes you to space. I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. We're human beings. We're human beings. We're able to laugh at our tragedies. We're able to transform individual sadness into collective joy and community pain. We're human beings. We're human beings. We're human beings. We're human beings. Comedy is a way of exposing a hidden sensitive, sacred beauty. I'll wait for you.

I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. We're human beings. Because we as a black community have been so traumatized by colonization, slavery and racism. We've taken its criticism, notions of inferiority, a supremacy, haunt us, into the feeble and vulnerable shelter of insecurity. I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. I'll wait for you. Once the shelter is intruded upon, our immediate option seems to be censorship and violence. It's a nice program with explore black comedy, its origins and the dozens. Featured artists are Zanab Johnson, Eddie The Dreamer, K.O.S.1, Dominique and Memphis Minute.

We're going to start with some Zanab Johnson. I love you, I love you. I love you. Listen to the Sunrise Office right now play, our theme song, I'll wait for you. My name is Art Terry. I want to let you know my single is coming out on Friday, April 8th. Make it. Hope you can get it. Thank you very much. Yay! Yay, yay, yay! Give it up for my afro! Yay! It excites me because I had a shade head for seven years. I was never late anywhere. When I started growing it back, my friend was like, Zanab, I didn't know your hair grew like that. I was like, what? I tried to lead her down a racism trap. I was like, how does my hair grow?

She was like, you know it's tight and coarse. I was like, oh no, no, no, that's the misconception. My hair grows very straight. Then I walk out into the world and oppression makes it tight and coarse. We're not friends anymore. Which is okay because I have 12 siblings. I know my mom's vagina, right? Whenever I tell people that, they're like, wow, your parents were having a lot of sag. I was like, at least 13 times. Since we're counting. They also ask me, oh, did you come from a religious family? Yes, I did. I'm Muslim. I know I'm under-dressed. Okay. I actually had a guy break up with me because I was Muslim. He was like, Zanab, I really want to marry you, but I need you to be Christian. I was like, I really want to marry you too, but I need you to be financially stable.

I find it ironic because you're in my rock. Love is so funny and it has you stop. Make so much money from stirring up high. I ain't going back to the car and I won't talk to the cops long. This game, this game, where play is so, so, so, so, so, so, so, damn, grand. And this game, this game, where play is so, so, so, so, so, damn, grand. Some emcees get their notoriety through battling. Meaning, they're back in the days, we used to call it the dozens. Slaves were sold one by one unless there was a defect. Their leg was hurt, arm was severed, mental issues, maybe sick. Those people were sold in a dozen. So, slaves would start going back and forth with each other saying,

well, your head's bigger than your neck and that makes you a laly pop. Ah, your mother and so this, I could do that. Ah, and everybody would laugh at you, which then eventually became the dozens. So, the idea of battling, coming out of this tradition called the dozens, where you verbally attack your opponent and your opponent verbally attacks you until somebody breaks down and he wants to fight, cries, whatever it is, or or judge, deems the battle one by either opponent. This trickles over into rapping. It was Zulu Nation, it first brought up the idea of, we don't have to shoot at each other or beat on each other or this. We can actually use this tradition of the dozens to actually have verbal warfare through art.

I want all you words for falling in line, take your scum and life I'm taking mine, even take your scum and any shakie face, take your scum and take your years, yes, yes, yes, now you're dead and missing me, you're a robber and a thief, you're being a dust, that being a cut, your mama's doing it all. You're going to go your mom when I cross the field, running out of shaking like an automobile. I hauled at your mom and I told her to wait, lift the wave for me like I can't let it take that she's already in this street. Robbing her to cheat, that's the end of the cut, get the end of the job, your mama's doing it, you're going to go your mom when I cross the field, running out of shaking like an automobile. I hauled at your scum and any shakie face, take your years, yes, yes,

now you're dead and missing me, you're being a dust, that being a cut, your mama's doing it all. I like your mama, like it's just a two, I did like your daddy but your daddy wouldn't do, the man you're dead, you oughta call me the other day, you know about that, that he was frontin' at waste, and now he's a friend of his dreams, robbing her to cheat, that being a dust, that being a cut, your mama's doing it all, he's a dog, he's a dog.

God made him an enemy, made him a stout, what a baddest find did it made him a stout? He made it snout just as long as the rail, he once had his findin' tell him he made him a tale, he made it tale just a fanned fly, once had findin' tell him he made it some eyes, he made his eye just look all the way, once had his find tell him he made it, he made it, he made it, he made it, he didn't get his feet, once had his findin' tell him he made him a stick, he made him a stick, Lord, he made him well, you know about that, that the enemy told him, he was dead and missing him, he was a man of energy, if he ain't enough, probably ain't enough, your mama's doing it all, he's a dog.

Hey, what's everybody? You listen to Is Black Music. I'm Resonance104.4 FM. My name is Artitari. I'm happy to be your host today. We're looking into African American comedy and, you know, just how we use it and why we use it. We just heard Zanab Johnson talking about her life and just dealing with different subjects. Like, we like to deal with different subjects. We like to take the piss out of each other and throw it around. And just bond in a way that just tells us all that we're doing this together. We love you. And we love everything about you, including your faults and your strong points, you know. And it all is beautiful to us. We want you to come as you are. So yeah, we just like to expose everything. Everything is on the table. Nothing sacred, it seems sometimes. But that's because everything about you is sacred. Indeed, we're listening to Ben Branch right now. Play that sacred, sacred song. Take my hand, precious Lord.

Ben Branch, saxophone player, was the last person to speak to. I wonder if he came before he was blown away. And Martin said to him, don't forget to play this song. And yeah, that's how you play him, y'all. That's how you play him. It's a time and place for everything. And it's all coming with the spirit and with the material. So before this, we are Dominique, the great comedian.

She's like a poet, though, isn't she? And we had Eddie the Dreamer with the range, featuring a level. And we started to set with Zone Johnson here. We're going to go now into our, we're going to talk about the dozens. The dozens and something you may not be familiar with. Sometimes referred to as the dirty dozens. It's where we take a piss out of each other here, since I'm in England. First of all, what take my hand? Check out the history. You won't know where you come from. You'll find out who you are. And who we are together as a people. Is back music, Reson's normal 4.4, I feel it. I got so time. Yeah, I'm weak, Lord. Oh, you know I'm more.

Oh, yeah, brother, starlight. Through the night, holy pure, Lord, Lord, Lord. And beyond to the light, take my hand. And pressure, Lord, and leave me home. Yeah, yeah, yeah, when the darkness, yeah, the darkness appears. There's a night, one day is going to drop down.

Yeah, yeah, when my light is almost gone. Yeah, at the river, Lord, you know I stand. I'm a witness, and please hold my hand. Ah, I wish I know, and I ask, take my hand. And leave me home. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Come on, you folks, then start the walk. I'm famous, start my business home. What you think about it in old my mind? Let's stop you guys, and start it kind. You're the starry mist, straight up, rubber, and a cheetah. If you're any good, rubber, and you come, my duty, Lord, and Lord. Some of you, where there's all to be any chance, Out on the corner, stopping every man.

I deserve as a nickel and a towel of free. I'm keeping me having now who wants me. You're the only straight up, rubber, and a cheetah. If you're any good, rubber, and you come, my duty, Lord, and Lord. Now this funny thing I ever seen, come catch up on a sword machine. Lord, machine, runs a fast, jump nine and nine and stitches in it, yeah, yeah, yeah. Now use a crumbless straight up, rubber, and a cheetah. Let your anger, rubber, and you come, my duty, Lord, and Lord.

Now my day all about old man fell. He came three body strokes and smells. These man fell shed all the day, all in vain, putting mom on going your way. And all about your path and your mammoth. You've been fast, lost in your little brother's land. And in your coal and your morson corn, you've got rock and short to stand across. Not all rocking list readers, rubber, and cheetah. If you're any good, rubber, and you come, my duty, Lord, and Lord. In high school, I recall entire row sessions in which participants would jokingly insoll each other in the most creative way. In high school, I recall entire row sessions in which participants were jokingly and sold each other in the most creative way they knew how. It wasn't until I got older and began reading scholarly material that I realized that this

was actually considered a cultural phenomenon and was seen as being unique to the African American community. The older generation tended to call it dozens, while my generation referred to it by many different names depending on where you were from. But little did we all know that this likely came from Africa. To begin, I've touched on this topic before and thought it was worthy of a remake. This video is going to be mostly opinion based, coupled with one scholar's theory on his origin. Even though there are multiple theories as to where the dozens came from, I thought the African based theory provides the most compelling answers. As an afrotocented individual, I thought this topic was important because I think the dozens are one of the most interesting things we likely inherited from our ancestors.

As afrotocented people, it's sometimes difficult to prove we do something instinctively because our ancestors did it. As a people, we may feel or know that genetic or cultural memory, if you will, influences us daily. But explaining that to someone would be complicated. And that's why I think the history of the dozens and its clear parallels with African culture can be so significant for our community. For those of you who may not know, the dozens have been defined as a contest game in which two contestants in the presence of a spurring audience of peers. Try to best each other and casting the spursions on each other, or each other's relatives, particularly the mother. Such as spursions are made up of both non-sexual and sexual marks, such as joking accusations of incest, promiscuity, and possession of unusual sexual or related organs. Now this is also a general guideline to help people identify when the dozens are taking

place. In reality, there is no announcement that this contest is happening, or that it relates specifically with anything sexual, thus making it official. As I mentioned before, the dozens have been called by many different names. I find it fascinating that the social activity that I've observed and participated in so naturally has been studied. I imagine some of you guys can identify. I think it's important that we have a place to document this from our experience and understanding, so in the comments section below, feel free to do so, as your input would be just as valuable. I'm sure there are many in the diaspora who never really thought that what we were participating in was not only something unique, but more importantly came directly from our ancestors. In my view, the most compelling theory concerning the origin of the dozens concerns the African origin theory. The other two previous theories that have less weight in my personal opinion are the independent invention theory and the Western European influence theory.

I think Dr. Amuzi Chmezzi does a great job at highlighting why those older theories hold little to no weight in the discussion. One of the principle reasons why the African origin theory of the dozens makes the most sense is because the concept of the dozens was and still is performed on the continent. Among the e-boes of Nigeria, a game strikingly similar, almost identical to the dozens, is played by children, adolescents and teenagers. It is usually played at night after supper under moonlight and in the presence of parents, siblings and other adults and relatives. The dispersions or invectives are usually fancied. Equal to formalities are rarely used. The game is called Icocha in Cocha, which means making the spariging remarks. Icocha in Cocha is found not only among the e-boes of Nigeria, but also in other African societies, including Ghana.

In Ghana, as in Nigeria, the game is traditionally an after supper moonlight engagement. Unlike many e-boes, Ghanaian players often allow the leveling of the dispersions on the contestants' parents and other relatives. And view the fact of the existence of the dozens in Africa, previous theoretical writings on the Afro-American dozens need to be re-examined. For whatever reason, all the previous writings on the dozens have played down or outright ignored the possibility of an African origin. Thankfully, modern scholars are becoming more aware of the racial biases of the past and revisiting these ideas. And so the African origin of the dozens became much more plausible. Some of the most glaring similarities between the dozens and Icocha in Cocha are pointed out by Dr. Chamesi. Both the e-bo and the Afro-American types allow only two contestants at a time.

In order to realize a spurring audience, basis dispersions mostly on fancy rather than actual defects, conditions or events, and may be played between friends and siblings by both boys and girls. I wanted to add to Dr. Chamesi's observation, although the dozens was based mostly on fanciful insults, other similar roasting sessions use real physical characteristics as a sort of trump card, or they at least exaggerate these characteristics to get the most response from the audience. One of the differences between the dozens amongst Afro-Americans and the Icocha in Cocha of the Ibo seems to be the heavy presence of sexual jokes or insults. That may have developed independently in the Afro-American version. The dozens, according to Dr. Chamesi, likely originated in and was carried over from Africa, but not necessarily in its original form. Another difference is the reference to relatives, which dominates the Afro-American dozens,

but does not characterize the illustrative example taken from the Ibo variety of African dozens. In Ghana, however, relatives are frequently made the targets of the asperons. Since the ancestors of Afro-Americans came from different sections of Africa, it is possible that they brought with them different varieties of the African dozens. The use of rhymes in the Afro-American variety of the game is also a distinguishing factor from its African counterpart. One possible offshoot of the dozens can be battle-wrap, a more intense and official form of the concept, but that's another topic for another day. It's critical to understand that Afro-descended people in the Americas are in a malgomation of various African ethnic groups, largely from West and Central Africa, and so it would only make sense that the dozens will have several differences from any one particular African ethnic group, but share similarities with many, a clear reflection of history.

Certain ethnic groups from Ghana and Nigeria were not the only Africans who participated in the dozens. In fact, there was even an African empire further north that seemingly legitimized the dozens and made it law. The Mali empire had a constitution known as the Korokonfoga. The Korokonfoga was instituted after the Battle of Karina in the 13th century, which founded the State of Mali. In it, the Mandinka said the following. It has been established among the Mandinka's, the San Antonio-Jokin relationship. Consequently, any contention that occurs among these groups should not get out of hand respect for one another being the rule. Between brothers and sisters and between grandparents and grandchildren, tolerance should be the principle. A modern interpretation of the Mandinka San Antonio would most closely fit what we would call the dozens. The Mandinka essentially advanced the idea that the dozens or joking relationship should

be tolerated. It's clear that the dozens was deeply embedded in Mandinka culture since they took the time to institute it. This means it has a greater meaning for the Mandinka people and likely other African groups as well. San Antonio is a long-standing West African social tradition where playful banter should be exchanged and was seen here as a civic duty. The main aim appears to be promotion of tolerance and solidarity. No matter what it's called, whether it's the dozens, Joan and Roastin, San Antonio, Ekocha and Kocha, it's obvious that they're all related culturally to an African way of being. I think it's absolutely incredible that we not only have evidence of an African origin for the dozens observed in everyday African culture, but we also see it being recognized, sanctioned and even encouraged in an African empire. This is significant because as mentioned before, it reveals just how valuable it was for

African society and how it was used as a tool in promoting togetherness. Admittedly, identifying for with this African philosophical approach, because I observed and participated in the dozens with not only friends but acquaintances in which there was mutual respect. For me, understanding the African reasoning behind the dozens adds a powerful layer that I never would have been aware of. In other words, knowing this history gives the dozens a purpose outside of adolescent entertainment. I understand and identify with this African approach because I most certainly felt closer to or connected with people I did the dozens with. This is not to say that some of us in the African diaspora didn't have a bad experience with the dozens, or that feeling of togetherness was always a theme. However, I think we can appreciate the African social theory behind it and its intent from an African perspective. Now, of course, I know all of this is under the assumption that San Ankunya and the dozens

are indeed the same thing. Although it's difficult to satisfactorily prove the evidence seems to not be without the American origin theory gives a greater purpose to the dozens that cannot be articulated by the other theories, and it may be one of the reasons why it survived the middle passage, because it doesn't seem to be a phenomenon steeped in entertainment or a product of escapism. It was designed to bring unity between families and a way to connect with individuals who may be different from yourself within the community or state. I can only imagine the need for enslaved Africans and their descendants to preserve this cultural mechanism whether consciously or subconsciously. This is the reason among many others why the African origin theory for the dozens holds the most weight. I think Dr. Chamesi puts it best, why Afro-Americans engage in this game and what it does for them have been the object of theoretical speculation for previous writers on the topic.

Failure to look to Africa for interpretive constructs and a preoccupation with what the writers have perceived as the pathologies of the Afro-American culture have resulted in untenable and oftentimes downright ridiculous theoretical products. That's what it does and all the good love doesn't. It does and yes your man would know when it goes.

The gals that have the dress of weird to theirs just shaking it and breaking it. At that time there was what you called a lady stood the split draws. It just be shaken and down and some guy plugging on a gem and some rough looking guy I was nowhere at several of them and the thing right over and over is that all kinds of verses some of them meant something some of them haven't arrived some didn't so well. So I had a f***ing wood because you had to eat. Yes, it's my f***ing. All your mammy would wear no draws. The main theme was the mammy wouldn't wear no draws. As others have heard this gussian mammy it wouldn't wear some underwear.

It's good, my f***ing. Oh f***ing dirty son of a f***ing. Oh, everything you know, all your low f***ing. Yes, and everything you do. Yes, and everything you know. Yes, and yes, and s***. Oh, eat me up. Oh, like a cop with a yes, mammy wouldn't wear no draws. I said look out the f***ing. Make me mad. I'll tell you about the purpose that system of hand. Oh, it was a man. She f***ed the home. She f***ed the dog. I knew the dirty f***ing wood. Good job, cause your mammy don't wear no draws. I went one day out to the lake.

I seen your mammy. She f***ed the snake. Oh, she tried, she tried to shake. Oh, she shook, shake on the key. Mammy don't wear no draws. And I can't explain this stuff to my wife. I can't explain racial s*** to her. I can't add this conversation with her. She's French. She's French. She doesn't know American history. I mean, ok, yeah, she's American citizen now. But she just learned enough to pass the test. So I can't have these conversations with her. Cause one, she might say something stupid. And I love her. I don't want to have to leave this woman. Like, wouldn't the whole Ferguson thing was going on? You know, I was watching it and everything. But what I do is I can't watch it like that with her. You know, so I had a TV on and she's out.

And so I'm watching it and I'm like f***ing s***. Cause I got to watch it standing up. So I can watch the door to see when she's coming. Cracker ass. Cracker ass. Crackers. That's right. Burn that s*** down. Oh s***, here she comes. Here she comes. Hey baby. Yeah, just watching some shark tank. Ferguson, man. And let me just say, I am pro cop. I respect what they do. You know, I thank them for what they do. In theory, I am pro cop. However, in reality, I just know that there are some cops who just should not be cops. Here he is. But just like in old professions, they are just people

who are just shitty at their jobs. There's somebody burning fries at McDonald's right now. Even you know somebody at your job, you're like, how the f***ing s***? You're going to work on money, you like this. This s*** is new here. Y'all ain't fired. Dave, yeah, are you kidding me? Dave, Nancy, please, can you take our show all day? What the f***? What is Dave still here? What happened, y'all? How do we get here? No, we're meant to take that back. How did the Republicans get here? What the f*** happened to the Republicans? If you know a Republican, just give them a hug. This is all... It's okay, baby.

I've never seen politics this low. I mean, you're talking about, you know, each other's wives and then we have to sit there and listen to them talk about the size of Donald Trump's hands. What the f***? I mean, they are just like one step above doing your mama jokes. And I have never, in my life, watched a presidential debate and had the thought cross my mind. It's here about to take out his dick. I thought he was gonna pull out his pain, it's all for sweet Jesus.

White man got them royalties. How about that big teddy girl in Jamaica Postard? Married a white man. We? Nigger, please.
