lmao real

It’s like I wonder if people are familiar with that aspect of their beliefs when they name drop Wu Tang for cool points on talk shows or WWE or in the context of their confusion and anger at rap culture not really abandoning Ye

I think those white nerds who try to hold on being apart of hip hop but have the most generalizations about it shouldn't engage in serious discussions at all. It is what it is. Will move on but sometimes its worth having the tough discussions on this forum rather than the absolute bullshit that fills the front page daily

Compelling argument

Move on brother, you went off fr, but hey you gotta learn to smell through the real

It was this song and Cave B**** by Ice Cube that really opened my eyes to that type of thinking

Those are exactly the people who need the most help and support tho lol

What you wann do for someone who knows they need help, is actively seeking treatment, and taking all their medication as prescribed? They’re already helping themselves and doing what they gotta do

Why would people ridicule, chastise, and demonize a man who is mentally unwell and not being treated?

It’s funny how no one really cares about what Ye was doing last year but the people he offended and tbh I think a lot of it boils down to the Isreal/Palestine conflict.

That being said, how many times are mfs gonna be outraged by Ye’s ignorant statements? If people didn’t care after the IG rants and Carnival, maybe it’s just not going to happen anymore.

And tbh that’s a good thing cause maybe he’ll stop since he won’t get the outrage he desires

Honestly I think a lot more artists in hip hop support/agree with Kanye than is let on

And this cannot be yall niggas take away from the new album, I'm a little appalled, bro dropped AOTY

u get what you give

its crazy reductionist to pretend only the geeks on reddit care about ye being racist and anti-semitic

donda and vultures eras have been so incredibly different, ye is one of the biggest artists ever and will always have a big fanbase no matter what but its just not the same

Wasn't Kendricks cousin Carl on the FEAR outro saying that they are the true hebrew israelites? Basically insinuating that POC have been punished throughout history because they haven't embraced or forgotten their "true identity".

I mean, if Kendrick put this on his album is it that far fetched to believe that a chunk of the culture follows NOI type thinking?

Even if Kendrick doesn't agree with this or it's just there for the concept, it's still weird, he also called himself an israelite on YAH

What the f*** is the point of threads like this? Do you expect us to cancel q because of this? Yall niggas are weird

my brother in christ the israeli palestinian conflict and zionnism isn't new lol

I am not a hotep by any means but there has always been the idea that the people of Israel were much darker based on the climate man lol. Its often argued that Jesus was black or palestinian for that reason. They are in the middle east.

Many black israelites are also zionist. There is overlap

Donda was still viewed as Maga Ye......

I agree w/ you, I just think it may go a bit deeper than just Jesus was black type thinking

what many fear about the black israelites unfortunately isnt their deep seated ignorance about so many topics so much as they think they are the chosen ones which is what whites do right now

the great argument of "who did God make in their image". That self centered egocentric problem is rampant in all art forms

it aint even closeted like that fr fr

Definitely Yeezy you’re right

No feature on that album is suffering as a result of it. That’s his point

Bro I know that lol but you cannot deny that it hasn’t been more aware on social media than it ever has

Rap having to censor itself is truly whack , it goes against everything

Rest in piss @Nozuka

Breaking news

Most rappers have similar views like Ye, they’re just quiet about it
