Also these vinyl exclusive things don’t happen overnight, this has probably been in the works since sometime last year at the very latest

I remember the first 2-3 months of the boycott, the Targets in Downtown Brooklyn and Flatbush Junction were noticeably empty. Of course you'd still have people going because for a lot of people that was one of the few available grocery stores they had in their area.

On the MAGA side of the boycotts, because apparently they were boycotting too, the Targets in my local area it was the same situation for about a month or two. Then again where I live there's access to Walmarts, Costcos, Home Goods, etc so it was easy to not shop at Target

Jay Z dissing people for working with white people saying they are controlled then working with target . When he could work with specific vinyl stores is a choice he has free will and is using it . People can rightfully criticize him for it

lol stand up brother

Yes

If Jay Z aint moral posture at the roots picnic nobody would care fader

A man who has never talked tough to one white person

I'm not really sure why people are tryna deny the boycotts happening....

Target has come out themselves and said they lost a ton of money due to less shoppers, and their quarterly business reports showed they were down significantly.

Jay Z choose to posture so there no excuses for this fader . Just go get the target exclusive

They tryna give they Marcy lord and savior some grace

When he opens up a casino in Times Square they going to say it’s positive too

someoen always boycotting something

There are no black-owned nationwide vinyl retailers.

If you wanna criticize him for working with a white-owned corporation that’s one thing, but criticizing him for working with Target specifically because of the boycott when he’s not even the only rapper to work with them in the past few months is ridiculous

Shhh let people get off their moral superiority grifts in here

Fair, but we well removed from that time

Bingo!!!!!!!

It's all performative, it's all hate, jealous and envy masquerading as some righteous cause.

Even if he didn’t people would still have a problem with it because they don’t like the nigga

These same people criticizing Jay for working with Target wouldn’t criticize Kendrick for working with them (another artist who currently has a Target-exclusive version of numerous albums in stores right now)

@LaSean and @shaleirose definitely taking the dinner over the 500k

It's because Jay Z is one of the bigger and more powerful people in the industry. He is seen as someone with high influence, and as a "leader". Especially within the black community. He's on more people's radar when it comes to wanting notable ppl to bring awareness to real life issues.

Basically the phrase "The bigger you are, the harder you fall" applies perfectly here

ruthless, goofy capitalist does ruthless, goofy capitalist s***. not surprised

We literally would not fader you are lying (derogatory)

It got nothing to do with Jay, I just don’t like when people pretend to care about a topic just to get hate off on a specific person. If these people cared about the boycott they’d come at Cole and Kendrick for working with Target recently too

Yes y’all would (derogatory)
