Byron Crawford does not care about Chinese people

O-Dub

Because I'm pretty sure the Chinese gov't doesn't allow the Internets, I probably never would've seen this, but a kid just so happened to be running a Lexis-Nexis on my name recently and came across some shit.

Apparently, your boy OW has been contacting the red Chinese media trying to spread all kinds of misinformation about yours truly.

Oliver Wang; Writers from China's diaspora

As he cradles his baby daughter, Oliver Wang doesn't look like the kind of person to inspire a vendetta. But the 33-year-old rap music critic is in the crosshairs of fellow blogger and hip-hop analyst Byron Crawford.

Upset that Wang removed him from his link list, Crawford claimed Wang had sent insulting e-mails, one of which is posted on Crawford's site.

"Everything you see on Byron Crawford's site about me is libellous," Wang says.

It's not the first spat Wang has been involved in. "I come from a community that's still largely marginalised. This doesn't necessarily affect me day-to -day because in San Francisco, which is multicultural, you don't necessarily feel out of place.

And then it goes on from there.

That everything I've ever written about him is libellous is a pretty wild claim that can be very easily disproven. In fact, the only thing we can say is definitely true is that he has clearly established pattern of getting in well-publicized beefs with black people.

I'm not sure what his aim was with this, but it's probably a good thing I found out about it before I actually went over there and ended up in some wet, dank basement connected to jumper cables. As a precaution, I'm probably not going to be hitting the chinaman (nullus) for at least a few weeks.
