So now you’re going to pretend the head of TDE lied on Kendrick to convince yourself he isn’t a pedo defender

You were just talking about how shaq misconstrued your words when he called you a pedophile defender and now you are doing the exact same thing lol

Kendrick never said but top dawg did so if you are going to say that means kendrick wanted that then does that mean sza, isaiah, jay and whoever else is under tde wanted it too?

No dummy the article verbatim said Kendrick’s REPRESENTATIVES threatened to pull his music and then they reached out to TDE’s Label Head additionally to confirm if it was true and he confirmed and also agreed.

Kendrick’s representatives are not going to do something he doesn’t agree/urge them to do. Are you unfamiliar with how a REPRESENTATIVE works?

Here's an excerpt from the article: Last week, Bloomberg reported that representatives for multiple acts—including Kendrick Lamar—reached out to Spotify Chief Executive Officer Daniel Ek and head of artist relations Troy Carter and threatened to pull their music if the company kept the policy as it stood. In an interview with Billboard, Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith, CEO of Top Dawg Entertainment, has now confirmed that he threatened to remove music from the service.

The rep is literally top dawg who is also the rep for all the other artist on tde you f***ing idiot lmao

I just explained this to you.

Kendrick's representatives reached out to Spotify.

" Representatives for several acts, including rapper Kendrick Lamar, called Spotify Chief Executive Officer Daniel Ek and head of artist relations Troy Carter to express their frustration. "

Pitchfork then contacted the TDE Head in ADDITION to confirm if that happened, and he said it did and also he stands with the choice and also reached out.

Top Dawg literally says that the artists were on board with the movement.

"“My whole thing with them was, we gotta fix this situation, and if it can’t be fixed, then there’s gonna be a real problem, we’re gonna have to start pulling our music from the site” Top recalls. “I was willing to get the whole culture to back out. There were other people in the business, other powerful artists that were willing to back what I was saying, because nobody agrees with censorship like that.”"

You think he was going on the phone to pawn Kendrick's music and Kendrick did not agree beforehand?

God you are so f***ing stupid lmao someone being a rep for an artist does not mean everything they do is on their behalf you f***ing stupid c***.

You're denying something that is 100% obvious.

This is the equivalent of an OVO Records Executive taking a stand, saying he has artists on board, the insiders familiar specifically stating Drake's music was threatened to be removed, then someone trying to argue "well we don't know if Drake agrees with this".

Well that would be a different scenario since the ovo rep would have said drake's name and not "i got some powerful artists" you see the difference you f***ing idiot?
