12771687, Fallon always calls him Tariq
Posted by gumz, Fri Apr-03-15 01:04 PM
don't think he officially switched up though
12771704, producers prolly said fuck no when he said his name was Black
Posted by legsdiamond, Fri Apr-03-15 01:17 PM
anything...

Saying black thought on national TV is like saying bomb on an airplane.

I think he addresses this in his interview with the Champs. It was a month or two ago so I forget but I think he just goes by his real name on Fallon.

Rap was dope.
12771993, yeah he did
Posted by RobOne4, Sat Apr-04-15 12:39 AM
he said it would be weird having Fallon call him Black or Black Thought on national tv in front of millions of people who dont know that is his name. So to avoid confusion he uses Tariq on the show.
12772035, ? but doesn't he call Tuba...Tuba
Posted by PIMPINCHICAGO, Sat Apr-04-15 08:38 AM
and Questlove by his stage name?


You would think someone saying Black Thought on TV would boost all of his YouTube hits and such.


I don't watch Fallon to know if he never goes by that name.
12772250, Questlove is a family friendly stage name

12772366, Yes, he does have white producers.

12772535, because most of the audience doesnt know it's his stage name
Posted by RobOne4, Mon Apr-06-15 12:28 AM
they will just see and hear Jimmy Fallon calling a black man Black. Even when the show is 10 years old and the regular viewing audience knows his stage name is Black Thought there will still be new viewers. Hearing a white man call a black man black. You think they want to deal with those letters, calls, emails every 6 months?
12772564, Nobody is that dumb. People can tell that Black Thought is a stage name.

Now if people have a problem with Jimmy saying, "Yo Black, hit me with that song." Then they have has bigger issues with self.

12772607, nah, I get it...
Posted by legsdiamond, Mon Apr-06-15 08:30 AM
I just think Tariq gave the proper PC answer.

Aint no way a white man is calling anyone Black Genius, Black Hero, Black Angel, Black Thought, etc.. on TV.
