Back in Black

An album made in 1980 shortly after the death of Bon Scott. The song itself is a tribute that bypasses normal memorial limitations and celebrates Bon's life the way he lived-by rocking.

Back in Black was a title already decided before Bon Scott died.

back in black

an album that was released in 1980, currently the sixth best selling album from the fifth best selling band ever. The song was written to celebrate Bon Scott the way he lived - by rocking hard. *Not a metal album! AC/DC has publicaly detested the metal genre in many interviews!!!* It is still a memorial song, so no matter how many times the lame-brain Beastie Boys try to get the rights to "spin" it, they never will!!!

BIB is registered as a Double Diamond seller. Let's see a rapper beat that.

Once you've had white, you never go back to black.

A phrase that primarily applies to black women but is also applying more and more to black men in America. Single black women having become disillusioned with being the breadwinner and homemaker of the family. In dating white men, black women have discovered that white men tend to be more financially stable, less likely to cheat, less likely to be abusive, and if there is a pregnancy are more likely to stick around and be a part of the child's life even if the relationship doesn't work out. All things that women want in a relationship.

Greg: Is it true that charice is getting married to a white guy?
Boosie: Yeah, white boys don't fuck around. You always see them with the hottest girls in the neighborhood.
Greg: Why Is she doing that?
Boosie: I asked her and she told me, Once you've had white, you never go back to black.
