~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 12:09am On Aug 06, 2012
Curious to know, what do people think or see when certain Blacks Images are shown.

What is the first Ethnic group or Region that Comes to Mind when analyzing their Features.

So I will Post Various Images of Blacks in the New World.....And Give my opinion on where their blood could possibly be from.

Obviously this is just a random guessing game, no one can be right or wrong..But i just want to see if people see what i see.

First Up... Michael Jordan and Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce

Royal's Opinion : Michael Jordan Definitely Looks like he's some mixture of Wolof and Mandinka, SeneGambian Region.

Shelly Ann Looks like she has some Akan Blood in her, Facial Features and Body Type are Very Ghana Like.(Maybe an Ashanti Queen?)




















Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 12:22am On Aug 06, 2012
Next Up: Spike Lee and Curtis Jackson

Royals Opinion: I can't really get a good read on spike...Dude looks like some weird mutation..

Possibly an east african,(somali) who was captured and brought to the west for sale...

Or ...Originally of west african blood and just had lots of Mixing over the years.

Curtis Jackson Looks like he could be (Ga Ethnic) Ghana Region...based on his physique and facial features..I place him Ghana/Togo region.

Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 12:41am On Aug 06, 2012
Next Up: Eddie Murphy and Floyd Mayweather Jr

When i look at Eddie, i Instantly think Nigerian...South East Nigeria maybe...Ogoni people? lol who knows

That Head Shape,The Wide Eyes, That Front gap,(Teeth Alignment) That Nose. The Guy must have some Nigerian Blood Somewhere

Floyd Mayweather and His Father Look like they come straight out of the Democratic Republic of the Congo

He and his father both have those short round heads...wide mouth,wide lips ,full Lips.

I can't really narrow it down to an ethnic group... Maybe Kongo People...but definitely they (he and his father) look as if they carry central African bloodlines.

Flava Flav and Forest Whitaker

Man i don't even know where to begin...Only God knows where these Creatures are from....I am not sure Africa is willing to claim creation rights to these 2 individuals

Royals Opinion : ??!?!??!?!?

Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 1:05am On Aug 06, 2012
Snoop Dogg and Kevin Garnett

Royals Opinion: Both tall lanky guys, extremely thin...thin noses..thin lips...

Both appearing to possess genetics which prevent them from going outside of the mold of their slim frame

I would say, some more Senegalese Creations

Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 1:07am On Aug 06, 2012
Garnett is clearly a Wolof or Serer creation of some sort...

Human Genetics are So Beautiful. Ill come back later and do some Females.

Michael Jordan doesn't look Senegambian. He looks like a mix and match of West and West Central African ethnic groups and combined with Native American!
You're spot on with Shelly Ann Fraser Pryce. She has a typical West African Sudanian Savannah phenotype! Jamaicans are about 30% Akan!

Flava Flav is quite clearly Senegambian facially and bodywise but not in height!
Forest Whitaker is just a West/West Central African mix up
Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by kandiikane(m): 2:08am On Aug 06, 2012
Flavour doesn't look senegambian at all. That face doesn't look west at all.
Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by kandiikane(m): 2:10am On Aug 06, 2012
In fact, on second thoughts, flavour looks Nigerian.

Eddie Murphy looks like a West African Sahelian mix up. I see Akan, Senegambian ethnic groups, Hausa, Mossi-Dagbani in him but mainly unmixed Hausa!

Floyd Mayweather Sr and Jr. look mainly DR Congolese mixed with other West African ethnic groups

Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 4:05am On Aug 06, 2012
Michael Jackson

Royals Opinion: I am going to have to go with Ghana....That Nose is Legendary.

After it was all said and done, he had faces that resembled ethnic groups from all over the world...even other planets by the time he was through

R.I.P Greatest Musician Ever/Greatest Entertainer Ever.

Amazing how big his nose is in pic number 1, and pic number 3...because those pics were after his "first" nose job.

It's really hard to say..because he does not have West Africa Eyes to be Honest....

Hard to read that man.
Re: ~~~~Blacks Of The New World~Trace Their Blood~~~~ by Nobody: 4:22am On Aug 06, 2012
Remy Ma and Denzel Washington

Royals Opinion: Remy looks Nigerian....I love her Voice and Face... Her eyes are so southwest Naija, I smell Lagos funk all in her VaJina

Denzel looks like some Mandinka mixture...similar to morgan freeman ...Elongated heads..definitely sahel region brothers
