T-Pain wholly says, “[White people should] stop celebrating it. I think we should celebrate Black History Month. I think we should just have history. They overshot it. We don’t want our own sh*t. You separating us again! We want to be part of history, not just one month of it. I’d rather everybody stop celebrating that sh*t and just let us be part of history. And if you haven’t paid attention, it’s the shortest month of the year.”

Wait! There’s more. Here’s some social media reaction to T-Pain’s rather confusing, but interesting comments about Black History Month:
ejking21: ???????????????? I understood what he was saying and I agree. No matter how he worded it The message was clear. Just my opinion ????????♂️
dafreshprince84: I know what he tried to say but it came out wrong AF!
michaelorganic: I fucks with T Pain but this take is cold as ice… BHM is quite necessary especially for the people and kids who are never taught Black History at all in school.
jerseyisnaked: Black History Month ( Negro History Week) was created by a black man named Carter G. Woodson. The celebration originally was the second week in February. Then in the 70’s Kent University expanded it to a month in February. The month was created as a tool of perseveration of our history. So I am not sure how the yts fit in? Lol
