    Even if this was true hypothetically, why can't Lupe have that perspective? In my opinion it's the other way around. black culture isn't celebrating him enough and everyone has only focused on his negatives and downplayed his positives but that's the way the industry corrupts the culture I guess. He's never been the guy to copy the mainstream and we see when he tries (Lasers) it feels fake. He's just a different thinker.

    Him being bitter about his career doesn't make it okay for him to be the go to "black rapper s***ting on black accomplishments" guy

    I know lupe from his song superstar and onwards
    The man wanted to be mainstream (like b.o.b who actually got songs initially destined for lupe including fnothing on you* ft Bruno mars which became a hit)

    Not having mainstream succes as a rapper is not the black community's fault

    Last time I checked having a black audience is merely a stepping stone for mainstream acts before they move on to the general public

    Either way, yes he has a right to feel jaded but his bitter feelings are always directed towards black people

    If he kept the same energy for "" white culture"" that never fully embraced him and dropped/forgot about him than I'd be singing a different tune

    • Note that he can state "Asians love him" (as if all Asians love him or know about him outside his fans) but black people hate on him the most (as if he didn't have black fans)

    Ps: I researched a quote from lupé saying I love black people/or anything positive about black people as a collective the way he can do with Asians but found this instead

    "I don't work with blacks"

    I spoke to my friend who's into theories and he said the only way we can successfully defeat covid and fight the disease is to catch it and live with it

    Trust me oof we rely on vaccines then another disease like this will appear in the future but stronger

    I’ve never got any vaccine and I’ve never been sick. Never even had a cold in my life

    google herd immunity and thank everyone around you for getting a vaccine

    Whats the incentive to put something like that towards the flu

    Probably because the flu is also deadly so if the goal was to save lives why not put those resources towards the flu aswell

    shutting down economies

    Lockdowns did that. Not the virus. We didnt have to lock down

    The flu has a death rate at least 10x lower than coronavirus and it mutates yearly
    Despite that a vaccine IS available for the flu every year

    So he wants herd immunity. 80% of Americans will have to catch it, meaning millions more will die. Why not just take the vaccine

    It's terrible I know but that's the ONLY way we'll fight this horrible disease besides relying on vaccination. Short term it's terrible but it'll be more beneficial in the long term, with vaccination it's the opposite

    70 and that’s because of how mutated the flu virus is
    You can’t cover every strain with a vaccine

    Sorry for the long reply

    Concert venues are supposed to mandate such rules
    Lupé has not much say in that especially not where he's at in his career
    With his history I don't believe he's genuinely concerned with the health of his fans he's just trying to jab at other rappers or black culture (anti-vaxx rethoric became synonymous with a subset of black culture/entertainment since more rappers have been speaking out about it you know the whole sebi/natural healing thing, and he's attacking just that overlooking the years of white superstars pushing anti-vaxx (Pamela Anderson, Robert deniro, Jim Carrey who's careers have been unaffected by their statements and never became a representation of "white culture")

    It becomes a problem when a black person does it (black panther is overrated as if marvel movies as a whole aren't, kendrick isn't a great lyricist but logic is)
    I see a pattern with lupé... he really has a problem celebrating black culture and only focuses on negatives whilst downplaying the positive....

    Lupé has low-key been attacking black culture for the longest...

    you got the big stupid if you think speaking out against antivaxxers is antiblack

    Because he wants people who come to his shows vaccinated against a disease that's killed millions? Are you willingly an idiot or what?

    To answer your questions
    No and no.
