Is it possible to interpret Apeman Hop, a catchy tune by the Ramones, as anything other than appallingly racist?
The band has always struck me as very left-leaning, at the very least liberal left, but this...

It's all very disappointing... i just can't see how an artist can juxtapose this with songs like The KKK took my baby away.

I guess it's a matter of perception shaped by cultural upbringing.
You know, sort of like your anti-semitic jew-hating.

I think it definitely has racist overtones.
