Interesting thought, because I was just thinking he reminds me of a Morgan Freeman character.

Fits the black stereotypes but then has all these words of wisdom and shit to inspire white people everywhere, and it's extra sweet because he's black.

Basically.

He's just a really inspirational guy, and alot of people can relate from the roots he came from. Race and color aren't a factor. He was born and raised up in the middle to lower-middle class and lived a life of dedication aspiring towards his dream. I'm proud to be American again.

He lived in an upper-middle class family and lived a life of coke and pimping anyway.

People are inherently stupid. Under the right circumstances
they will believe anything.
