nah bro people was doing mental gymnastics to say why it was ok that Kodak was propped up on Mr. Morale and when you critiqued his inclusion--- apparently you were just looking to virtue signal

F*** a rap battle, It’s a life long battle with yourselves*

probably that whoop p****

liberal dumbass

The topic asking why drakes stimulus didn't work for sexxy redd u my everythang got locked too. Mods doing some serious damage control this evening

yt kid named brock, not surprised.

drake doesn't go around impersonating jesus.

we back. all k thots @ me

yeah because i guarantee you that whoop and everyone else crying about that dumbass s*** totally listen to artists that aren’t problematic whatsoever 😏

totally bet you guys also pirate their music and make sure they don’t get a cent from you 😏

NOTBrock, can ya even read?

Damn you right

bro your schtick doesn't work when your writing paragraphs defending why a rapist should be on an album about generational trauma --- especially when a main focal of that trauma is centered around sexual violence

Drake section thriving on a friday night, y'all got nun better to do?

@edumist

a part of the entire thing that makes up that “focal point” is that Kendrick is trying to show that Kodak is a product of his environment

the entire album is about Kendrick’s life, what he went through, how it affected him and his family + others, and how to grow and learn from it

it has nothing to do with “defending a rapist” it has to do with pointing out the lack of media literacy you lot have and the obvious pearl clutching, you can feel free to disapprove of Kodak being on the album, and what happened to him during his upbringing doesn’t excuse what he did, i don’t even like the nigga nor his music

don’t start crying about “you’re supporting a rapist” when niggas are listening to the album though

no respect whatsoever

must've got that attitude from your w**** mother.

genuinely such a stupid point

am i no longer allowed to listen to songs that have Eric Clapton on guitar because he went on a racist tirade on stage eons ago? like please think for longer than 2 minutes

Not very Christian of you, starting to think you re more of a kanye Christian

Lmao

Forgot Cudi broke his s*** and 99% of that tour was cancelled

pusha L

I don't need it spelled out to me.

It's pretty clear given the spoken word that's included on the album what the angle of his inclusion was. Doesn't mean its. bright or executed well. Its a ton of black people who were failed by their environments and these racist institutions that did not turn to being sexual abusers and becoming actual demons.

If kendrick's journey was meeting that he needed to grow and embrace change.... don't you think it would've been best not to include Kodak on an album just because you feel sorry for him or some black israelite kinship? And then you perform with dude? Weeks late you're wearing a tiffany diamonds crown of thorns with fake blood leaking from it saying godspeed for women's rights after the Roe V Wade decision? You don't see a weird morale confliction here ?

My nigga it's not pearl clutching. It's being aware of the fact the dude got platformed and it totally sullies the impact of the album and what it could've meant for the community.

The only one trying to play holier than thou is you.

good off the fake intellectual postering for a few likes and quotes.

Y'all are hypocrites at y'all cores

honestly i read through the thread again and 2-3 people already broke it down to you, and you’re choosing to regurgitate the same arguments with no change, so im already over this thing

once again... I'm good off the fake intellectual postering for a few likes and quotes.

you’re telling people to kill themselves over kodak black. You’re just a cowardly d***eater lol.

“play holier than thou” says the dude trying to police what other people are listening to by crying about how there’s a rapist on the album

wait until he finds out what James Brown and Miles Davis used to do when they were around
