MICHAEL ERIC DYSON TO ANSWER COSBY'S RAP ALBUM: Scholar says he's interested to see what Cosby has up his sleeve.
*Michael Eric Dyson has said he will come out with his own rap album in response to a reported hip hop disc being recorded by Bill Cosby.
“There’s nothing worse than a comedian that’s trying to be serious on a certain level. That could be hazardous to your career. And to your health,” Dyson, 49, told AllHipHop.com.
Dyson has been a vocal critic of Cosby's stand against the negative elements present in hip hop, including misogyny and use of the N-word.
In his 2006 book "Is Bill Cosby Right?: Or Has the Black Middle Class Lost Its Mind?" Dyson responds to Cosby’s views, which he considers an “assault on the black poor.”
“Bill Cosby’s made some great albums. Some of the stuff he’s done in jazz pioneering has been incredible,” admitted Dyson, who further stated he's looking forward to seeing what Cosby will rap about in his planned album, "State of Emergency."
“I actually am interested in hearing what he’s got to say, if he is rapping himself or does he have guest rappers or if he’s going to do his thing…because he’s a funny dude,” Dyson said.
