    but you just said if Pooh did that, he’s good yet will follow that exact moment with murder music, so how does that make him good? for saying Free Palestine now we can get lit to dead opps comfortably?

    I can see why some people think this s*** is problematic to hold these celebrities to and I can also see how the lack of using your platform exists as well

    its the same way drake mentioning gaza in a h**** 1 minute song doesnt do anything lol

    murder music=/=systemic genocide music

    “But kendrick directly positions himself in that role”

    Would argue the public does more than him himself, TPAB he was basically saying at the end he’s “just another nigga” but folks missed that part of the poem.

    And because we let the other side slide for saying more problematic things and more problematic actions versus kendrick getting criticized fir having a light skin curly fro’d lady in the humble music video

    Man you can't use tpab when bro on the same song was talking about how he wants us to love him nelson and saying he doesn't want people to switch up on him when s*** hits the fan like they did .... Huey Newton, MLK, Malcom X

    His first real single he was saying this

    Visions of Martin Luther staring at me
    Malcolm X put a hex on my future, someone catch me
    I'm falling victim to a revolutionary song,

    Street rappers get their own brand of fair criticism,

    Everybody and their mom was calling pooh, durk and thug dumb on their trial. Everyone always blames crime on street rap and such.

    Maybe Israel/Palestine conflict just isn’t something he feels compelled to learn about and speak on. That’s ok. Not everyone has to be an activist or have strong opinions about every single thing.

    I dont think it’s obtuse to ask why we give the pooh sheisties of rap waaaaaay less criticism than the rappers that do be trying. (And imo, a bit overly judgy to just give the “lol those dumb niggas dont know no better” im not saying you are saying this but that is the sentiment that is voiced when this conversation is discussed)

    Let’s remove all pretense and let’s say kendrick is just cosplaying as a political/conscious person (he’s not)

    As @raps2 says I rather rappers “cosplay” as intellectuals than cosplaying as drillers/mob bosses/pillars of black death

    Think Einstein did lsd, lemme look that statistic up

    It’s called nuance.

    That ending skit on the same song showed why he cant be like nelson + the disillusion from the following albums as well realizing the “good vibes and music” that he was telling pac is NOT enough to cause social change.

    His first real single was ignorance is bliss dawg

    Also imo he wasnt really saying s*** on hiiipower but i grew up on dead prez so thats my bias

    Maybe Kendrick could do another one of these cashapp commercials translating that negro talk for the good white folk

    lol I always thought this was crazy and idk why he didn’t get any backlash for it

    Like I love his music but I don’t see how anybody could see stuff like this or the plot of that movie with the South Park dudes and think they want to hear him issue a statement on Palestine lol
