I found it here.

It has the goat Tyler plays ina line up with all black men and a beat up woman and he's like ''you shoulda gave it to me'' he was talking about mountain dew but it sounds more like a rape joke.

But wth did Mountain Dew expect? lol this is the shit Tyler, The Creator writes about did they expect something kid friendly?

I can't keep up with all of these new rappers that surface every month so I don't know who this Tyler person is but does he have an affinity for goats? I'm not understanding why they would use a goat in advertisements for Mountain Dew??? I'm very confused. confuse

I read somewhere that Tyler and his followers were actual Satan worshippers, hence the goat reference?

Now that commercial was too much even for a six-year-old watching it the year it came out.

I loved Chappelle's spoof of this actual commercial! lol

It was really stupid. I didn't see it as racist but more sexist. I have a twisted fucked up sense of humor and it was just dumb to me.

So may ask what exactly is ''sexist'' per say in the commercial.

Is it the woman in danger theme? or the battered woman abused by a man theme?

It is voiced by Tyler who is obviously a man but the goats name is Felicia and it is supposed to be a girl...

And as for the goat beating up the girl it's... a fucking goat... and a female one lol lol

The commercial is dumb but i am just trying to figure out was is so incredibly sexists about it hmmm
