Very bone chilling and depressing that a bunch of white kids gentrifying Bushwick can get Big Thief to do crisis management and cancel a scheduled show in Tel Aviv, but a hip hop legend is hardly being grilled at all in the comments section.

Where's the outrage? We just saw Israeli news outlets go through a PR nightmare with the World Cup, so there should be little reason for preemo to offer some fanatical excuse of "taking hip hop global", right? No reason for him to get the legend pass on this either, right?

booking israel dates is a thinly veiled kanye sub

Kanye finna take Everything I Am off streaming

Don't let Preemo get some DJ scratches on a Ye song in 2022! He won't know how to act!

Hate it had to be premo

totally forgot about that, i guess this is more like damage control

Premier gave one of his best beats ever to a K Pop duo

I might make a thread on this one nba 2k16 classic

The big thief s*** was hilarious cus they actually put out a statement about playing in Tel Aviv before they even announced it cus they knew they would get backlash and were basically like “We understand this is wrong … however after heavy consideration and weighing all the options we’re doing it anyway”

Gross

And probably some frenetic yuppie manager who says phrases like "opportunity cost" a lot

Underrated song.

its palestine

Preemo zionist confirmed

Yikes

MF Doom deserved this

Immature of you to be on this type of energy but I'm more upset at whatever the "hip hop community" Is than preemo himself. The same mfs always talking about "holding each other accountable" are suddenly nowhere to be found

the Radiohead performance in Israel 5 years ago was worth more direct condemnation. It's not like premier built his brand around being anti-war

who gives a s***

Win

Damn...

Who had this sample first? Because I was just listening to Therapy off of Faces.

Kanye been in Israel too

Horrible

Even without considering the plight of the Palestinians/Israel being an apartheid state (which shouldn't be the case and enough of a reason for not pulling up to play a show out there), Africans are routinely persecuted to the point of even eugenics programs (look up infertility programs for East Africans in Israel) so for Preemo/a hip legend to be out there...
