[quote="Josher"]Your racism is showing.[/quote]
Uh, Josher, your "I'm going to assume someone is A) From Africa and B) American, just because of their dark skin color" is showing.
Just because someone is black doesn't mean you can jump to the conclusion that they're African American.

[quote="Thinliine"]...And who's the white guy from the Tiny Boat single?
[EDIT: They may be the same person, I haven't watched the thingy in some time.][/quote]
Nah, the white guy on the Tiny Boat cover has a full head of black hair, while the guy in something else has grey hair.

Sorry Rhino, but this answers my quote more clearly, and I apologize for being an asshat.

I really liked the cover to the "I Think I Can" single. It's the one with the gun hidden in the book. It make me smile every time I see it lol.
