    The interviews a rapper chooses to do doesnt make them a sellout.

    That goes for drake and kendrick and any other rapper. My first and foremost interest in said rapper is the music.

    It's already so many rappers I dont even care about hearing an interview from anyway. Not cause I dont like em, but most artists are naturally surface level anyways.

    The reason I said what I said is knowledge that folks like op aint asking this question or posting said tweet from an honest place.

    And at your grown age, you should learn to let s*** like a rap beef go.

    You a sellout too we don’t expect you to understand

    Your price and talent just much lower

    Punch asked the question and for the millionth time this tweet is also a defense of AUBREY GRAHAM

    Yeah I immediately think of Charlemagne asking completely outta pocket questions for attention. But I feel like Drake, Kendrick, and Cole specifically have the power to uplift better journalists and put them on a platform but they just don't

    I feel like the clip culture took over because that's where the rappers went because that's where the views are

    Certain bad actors in black media definitely arent innocent but I just feel rappers have the power to shift this and they just chose to opt out completely instead

    If said artist does 5 interviews a year, and only 1 is within “Hip Hop Media”, that artist is a sell out imo

    The mentality of “if you’re not growing, you’re dying” doesn’t apply to all aspects of life. There is immense value in just maintaining a consistent level.

    I was thinking about this yesterday when I saw his tweets, actually almost replied to him. The problem is that yes, you can very well venture to these other platforms, the issue arises when artists decide to do this and at the same time turn down their usual go-to places. Why hasn’t Dot sat down with Sway, Big Boy, and Rob Markman? Hip-hop media safe spaces and actual journalists with integrity he’s shown he enjoys. This my issue.

    Imagine a sway interview in the midst of the beef bruh we need our greats to keep our places within their promo cycle consistently cause that’s how you also pass down the history of these places to the next generation and keep it going for decades like late night TV. I don’t have an issue with Hapaar’s Bazaar as Kendrick and SZA doing their first black woman editor in chief a solid and even Dave Free did the same for a young black girl a few months ago with her magazine. So it really depends.

    I think overall most people prefer the outright acknowledgement that you are in fact navigating spaces that speak to what we enjoy, in this case hiphop. If you wanna be a model, then say that lmfao

    Kendrick did that during Morale tour

    I’ma always cosign and manifest @YoungNastyShawty to interview any of the big 3.
    But also it’s a point where you get too rich it’s like, you get overprotective.

    Like I said, as a kendrick fan that was more than ecstatic that he stopped doing interviews, this dont bother me none.

    I’m not saying drink champs is perfect I’m saying Nadeska dead end hip hop and many great hip hop journalists exist
    You can’t deny that or say “ they not mainstream “

    When Kendrick could use his popularity to change mainstream

    Harper’s bazaar isn’t a struggling outlet

    Bobbi white and rich but her interview with Drake was still better than many mainstream black outlets because they trying to do gotcha journalism

    Which many of yall ( not you I think you cool) do gotcha moments on here which is why black people grow tired of “ gotcha “ moments

    We need a Sway interview man frfr

    S***, more Big Boy interviews, that man is excellent with the back and forth

    Old man Ebro if he stop hating on Uzi (unrelated). Or Nadeska.

    An interview with Zane Lowe would be cool too, now that I've googled his uncle.

    One day you on eat the rich the next you have empathy for Kendrick Lamar like he a poor nigga and can’t google search worthwhile black owned outlets

    Get the black power fist and the black avy of the week out your profile then

    Showed Kodak in a f***ed up state for clicks man they aint innocent either

    I think you’re misremembering. He looked really normal on Drink Champs, and was open and comfortable with NORE and EFN, I ain’t gonna put that on them niggas.

    Yak spoke for over 2 hours and was super engaged more than his usually slurred, nervous self on other interviews. He was smiling the whole time and everyone in the room was happy. You should watch that interview again
