Jennifer Lopez has the right to define herself anyway she chooses. If she wakes up one morning and says she is from the orange planet and is a orange, she can do that. If Jennifer Lopez wants to define any music she puts out regardless of collaboration as whatever she feels that day, she can do that too. Oh remember when Jennifer Lopez used the N word due to association with urban lifestyle and a number of black and African Caribbean and Cuban African influences led her to feel like one of the slave blood people.


According to MOBO the Music Of Black Origin Awards , Jennifer did not want her music in 2002 release of the annual compilation album. MOBO felt that she would not mind this because of her collaboration with various artist of African descent and she accepted awards in 2001. According to MOBO, Jennifer Lopez London label made the following statement. “She doesn't consider her music to be of black origin.” Well Jennifer does have the right to say that but based on all the facts presented some my wonder how could she. Later a quote was captured from Lopez's camp which went as the following. "The record company acts as the go-between for an artiste like Jennifer. They negotiate with the artiste and the people making the compilation album. It can be very complicated." Hmmmm. The facts for this brief article were based on a report from http://www.xnewsjamaica.com. Well , We do know J-Lo is of Latino descent because of recent statement in Latina Magazine. This statement is paraphased. She said she has a social responiablity to represent the Latin community to a very high standard.
