You right

op spittin fax

Gambino from east Atlanta dont get it twisted

and wtf do you want to be said

covid bad
get vaccinated
f*** police brutality

the voice

Literally how lol

Most of that type of music literally gets buried because it doesnt fit a specific sound or "trend"

Playlists are literally barred unless they want you in, and most people that arent music savvy, aka most, dont get their music outside of marketing pushes or algorithm suggestions. Most streaming servoces suggestions dont even suggest s*** outside of what they deem is the trending sound. Which is why people get random suggestions that is opposite to what theyre listening too.

Literally nothing i said is revolutionary & been an issue even during radio, its just a new platform now which imo is even more "controlled".

No im not lol especially as someone that has worked at studios and see what artists go through & have to sacrifice just to appease execs & streaming.

Im aware. It's still hilarious anyone would bring up any part of boston like niggas would actually care. Benzino from boston we saw what niggas did to him

Embed wouldn't work but it was a tweet of Tyler saying the N word like he's known to do.

Not really one to be speaking on this issue

Nah a real nigga know how to get cute and technical with it.

Statement makes no sense… u gotta be from the hood to experience racism now?

Said you was vaccinated girl me too

I didn’t bring it up tho

If you dont know Candler road dont speak on Gambino

not ye

How

I think you're misunderstanding my point. My only point is that as worldly as Wayne's music is when he was at his peak and the world was going through s*** he addressed it. I'm not talking about his overall character. I don't think Drake has to do anything but it's dope when the biggest and best artist venture into that sphere

My bad b must have u mistaken

I distinctly remember when SFTB dropped how the entire internet was in an uproar about Drake being a middle classed mixed kid from Toronto and not knowing anything about true struggles. Couldn’t imagine what the reception would be if he tried to tap in to something like OP is referring to. Damned if you do damned if you don’t in this world sometimes

Don’t think that invalidates his point, but aight

He’s from Stone Mountain

Kanye is forever my favorite artist of all time but he’s def part of the problem with the MAGA s***

Oh brother, believe me I’m very educated on this so let me be explicit in what I mean: by “problems outside of race” I mean general human ones that don’t get uplifted. Like depression and mental health and finding yourself being relegated to “white stories.” Like movie wise, I’d love to see a black rom com. Or a black version of Garden State, etc. Our “pain” stories are usually either about slavery or police brutality. There’s so much outside of that that people rarely look to black voices/writers for

Also, I don’t think choosing not to talk about certain issues automatically means you’re pretending everything is okay 🤷🏾‍♂️ It just means you have other things you’d like to talk about in your art
