i’m at work i ain’t read this yet BUT i agree with everything in op

Need a TLDR for that tldr

Everything changes you when a have a family of your own. Kendrick realized that.

Such a shame he's from my city dog lol.

Just b**** made bro

I think i posted this gif too many times, shyt is personal

TLDR: Kendrick shouldnt be mad that people look at him as a savior because he put himself in that position

Eh. The lack of tone policing is why the radical movements of the 70s was able to get s*** popping.

Speaking nice wasn't gonna get them niggas nowhere lol.

Literally all this nigga talks about is “society” “individualism” etc that shut is old man. Take that s*** to politics section. Every discussion him and this other little group bring that s*** up even when it’s irrelevant

Especially as a black woman in 2022? If all we gotta worry about is "queen tone" and not the fact there hasn't been a full on massacre in the streets by them?

We getting off hella lucky

Oh

Disagree

cookies pretty much said

nah he is light work, but what makes him scary is that he may not have the actual wealth / assets other billionaires have, but he has something none of them (but the younger smart ones are aware of its importance ) is a hold on the culture

that’s what makes kanye scary for the next 20 years, his hold on culture. that combined with his accrlerationist perspective on liberation “i want to make products that change the world” idk man

i think niggas sleep on what he is capable of not even saying this on some stan s***, im just saying this on some, keep sleeping on the crazy nigga y’all… keep sleeping on the crazy nigga

we need more posts like these

great write up and i agree mostly

Being mindful about how you express your views is not the same as compromising your views

Gotta know your audience and adjust your method in messaging based on who u tryna reaxh

Try what exactly? The system is done for. Trying to change a system that was completely designed to counteract any effort is dead work. What these people could really try to do is overhaul and rewrite the entire thing, but most Americans are too comfy and stuck in the capitalist regime to even entertain that idea. The western world has a lot of people brainwashed. I honestly don’t think you can love your country and be a social activist at the same time in America. Because America was born on the blood and death of your ancestors. It just won’t work. We are probably hundreds of years or a nuclear bomb away from ever seeing any real change.

Glad to see ktt still appreciates posts with some effort put into it

Well.. most of ktt

^ @op good job, I think you hit the nail on the head

In this climate (which I think he hit on well, cancel culture etc) Kenny doesn't want to take the step up (I wouldn't either) so he stepped back

Because while those professions you listed do great work for society they don’t have much social or cultural influence / impact while rappers and other celebrities do.

"have you heard the new kendrick lamar album?"
"yeah, it scarred me a lot 😂😂"

True. Some folks will get pissed regardless though
