“But kendrick directly positions himself in that role”

Would argue the public does more than him himself, TPAB he was basically saying at the end he’s “just another nigga” but folks missed that part of the poem.

And because we let the other side slide for saying more problematic things and more problematic actions versus kendrick getting criticized fir having a light skin curly fro’d lady in the humble music video

I wanna see kendrick do a song with mach hommy frfr

Maybe Kendrick could do another one of these cashapp commercials translating that negro talk for the good white folk

lol I always thought this was crazy and idk why he didn’t get any backlash for it

maybe he fighting by telling us all to get offline all the major internet companies operate out of Israel

the thing is is none of this political opinionated spectacle REALLY has ever come from music

can i see pooh sheisty writing a song like "palestine like my lad-estine im tryna free all my guys until the end of time" nah but i CAN hear him mumble a quick "shoutout to them guys out in gaza they goin thru it" in a show intermission and this is really what it's about

it's not a COMPROMISE in artistry to stand up for something. this whole macklemore s*** popped off AFTER he spoke on stage outside of his set. if macklemore had songs like that they wouldnt have let big dog on tour in the first place

He’s just not a public statements guy tbh he’ll prolly mention it on his next album

thats my genuine question

how does a random aside before getting back to murder music contribute to the cause?

he does have hinds hall lol thats part of why he saw a resurgence in listeners

And it’ll be just as surface as drake and cole’s “bringing the gaza strip peace” line

I just don’t think the idea of ur a big artist that talks about things that matter to u including philosophy and politics means oh ya u gotta have the most pressing topics and important political topics in ur music idk i feel like this is a very 2020s exclusive idea

Thats also just the kind of rapper macklemore has been for decades

murder music=/=systemic genocide music

bros eloquent in the macklemore discog

#badfaith
#istartedlisteningtokendrickwhengkmcdropped

i agree with you im being faceitious with who will have a problem

eloquent? the song was major news went viral and has been used in protest

he's eloquent in it

Peep the add on

I couldnt name 5 macklemore songs with humanity life on the line

we would all die

Mb mb

but you just said if Pooh did that, he’s good yet will follow that exact moment with murder music, so how does that make him good? for saying Free Palestine now we can get lit to dead opps comfortably?

I can see why some people think this s*** is problematic to hold these celebrities to and I can also see how the lack of using your platform exists as well

A white man on here literally called that point bad faith lmaooo
