    The general disposition to have a contrarian opinion right now is something that no one acknowledges lmao

    Charlamagne and Budden lowkey the most influential

    Skip Bayless lowkey birthed all this hot take culture s***. Bro made a career out of saying the cowboys QB was gay then 20 years later made a career out of saying Bron wasn’t all that.

    Kendrick understood that - being a filthy millennial icon - he could only go so far into true revolution that it was disadvantageous to his message being effectively conveyed: “America wants to be pacified”. It’s a real damned if you do damned if you don’t situation with Kendrick going full revolutionary because it would ultimately benefit the evil powers that be. So he had to make it symbolic

    Funny enough only a Ghais Guevara - someone actually of the new generation - can earnestly echo those true revolutionary sentiments and put on display, because he is of the youth just like anyone born 1997-

    There is a surface level reading of the Kendrick performance that bogs it down to a complicit sanitized version of “the message” but make no mistake, it is still unabashed and sincere (look no further than Uncle Sam’s dialogue) but it couldn’t be flagrant. Kendrick doesn’t have the luxury. But best believe he made the message felt

    First time I’m hearing about Ghais Guevara was two minutes ago in a Kanye west forum thread about him not liking the Super Bowl halftime show

    Kendrick was a bit sanitized no doubt, but people aren’t seeing just how outspoken he actually was

    Not his fault for people being blind enough to expect otherwise

  • Yeah Internet love to overhype s*** as always

    He subtly acknowledged that he's part of the system/part of the game. Anything more to pushback, given the platform, would've been even more useless imo

  • Hurry Up Fader

    Anyone expecting a Super Bowl Halftime Show to be the spark of a revolution is an absolute idiot

    It really don't take long for someone to internalize a thought and police it incorrectly on this b****

    John Wilkes get in the Booth

  • I'm glad that we're seeing Gen Z speaking out on s***. The only one I know in this capacity who has done something like that is Redveil.

    We're witnessing the growth of future GOATs and y'all not prepared

    A David and Goliath moment is upon us
