I saw that segment this morning. Rob sounded like a fucking idiot. I've NEVER heard the term 'cornball brother' before.
The thing is, RG III keeps being asked the same bullshit (type) of question and that's why Rob Parker and 'the people he knows' keep hearing this sort of answer from RG III.
He's not distancing himself from black people - he lives and works in Chocolate City, for crying out loud! - but if he was, wtf is wrong with that? He's a young man leading HIS life. If he chooses to become a spokesman for A GROUP OF black folk when he's older, fine. Deal with it then. If so, who gives a fuck? The brotha can ball.
