The Prez
Them folks is literally family to me
Let’s get Free did a lot for the culture but I do have some opinions from actually knowing these people lol.
none of them is comparable to a Fela Kuti who literally went at his country's own police force tbh.
Watching now
As much as its cliche at this point Tupac counts imo
Most of public enemy
I think there's a tier of "revolutionary rappers" who threw their fame away by making political messages when on top of the world
Mos Def/Yasin Bey
Lupe
Yep
The culture doesn’t hold down niggas who commit to being that guy
Or they find any excuse to drop him. Drake dropped plenty of radioslop and its a HOF career still but Lupe does Lasers (which niggas here/kLive saw get played with and f***ed over in real time) and niggas say f*** him lol

Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o was also about it and the Kenyan government detained him for a year without a formal charge.

Was just watching an AI slop advertisement on YouTube before a vid, ad was for some brain knowledge app
It was some “nice guys finish last” ai slop relationship bait s*** but it brought up the great point that feelings are about distance from expectations
The better you are to begin with the higher the standard moving forward whereas if you underperform and show out every now and then its received way better
This perfectly describes how ppl receive future veeze carti vs the lupes killer mikes kendricks j coles lol
Do people actually watch this clown
He’s not even necessarily wrong but we don’t need a 4 hour video about this

yes lol
& its about way more than Mike
you see it. his conscience is killing him thats why he's yelling at vic mensa & his enemies in brother fred's house lol
wild ass optics lmao
Never jived with Lil Bill, and the Lib zio nonsense he was spewing makes sense when you learn that dude used to be a preacher or some s*** lol. Evangelicals peddle that poison on the regular
Bill is cool but can be aggravating at times
him, dave chappelle and talib kweli needa join up like a supergroup. the worst smart dumb mfs onna tl

More complicated with Lupe than “lasers bad” he himself started to decrease in overall quality + pull a ghais guevara on social media
Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o was also about it and the Kenyan government detained him for a year without a formal charge.
Sankara you could count cause he was actually a musician too

yes we need more short form content by creators who cant even articulate themselves, defend their ideas, offer worthwhile perspective or have the patience to thoroughly map out history to the masses in a ready made, audience friendly chapter format
world needs more of these typa clowns
Learned a ton from this and im only a hour in
thank you
crazy
bro looks like he dont even wanna be there (mike's barbershop)
damn i sat in that chair like a decade ago lol

We actually need it more than ever. Not this video specifically, but more people speaking on the topic.

Ngl I don’t know much about him outside of the Drake Kendrick vids he did which put me off

The only thing about FD I know is that clip of him saying if you listen to Drake you probably a loser and a bad person. Like calm down.
Pre Death Row I agree but towards the end of his life Pac was definitely becoming a hyper capitalist and Hollywood's darling (his later interviews confirm as such, "without money you can't build a nation")
the same Chuck D working with the US State Department?
As much as I'm a fan of both Yasiin and Lupe, none of them is comparable to a Fela Kuti who literally went at his country's own police force tbh.
I mean fela kuti isn't relevant here since we were talking about rappers lmao
We can't assume any route Pac was going to take. Yes acting was starting to boom for him, but we have no semblance of what the rest of his career would've looked like especially considering his erratic nature.
FD spends his time and labor dismantling successful black people, especially black men.
FD is a part of the problem.
That type of work is corny and actually deeply problematic (and further empowers white supremacy).
FD is a lame and actually terrible for the community.
The problem isn't Killa Mike (who is actually boots on the ground and does community work first hand for decades).
The problem is laptop losers who can't comprehend multi-layered, dynamic thoughts about longterm revolutionary strategies.
