Teejayx6One thing that doesnt get spoken is how much more blackballed political rappers are now. Everyone is quiet because everyone knows quickly it can all go away.
Lupe once they saw he was saying real s*** the record label sabotaged his entire career rather than let him do his thing

blissfullyKendrick Lamar silence is telling
I knew that mf was a fraud when he started doing Cash App commercials
One day people will realize he turned poverty into performance art

Getting called try hard is worth standing for something . It’s why I became such a huge fan of Lupe and took political action while young and got involved in my community. Because if it mattered to an artist making that much why couldn’t I try or explore the issues rather than ignorance is bliss . Many rappers saying nothing . Standing for nothing . Ignorance is bliss . Not our problem attitude besides tap dancing for a democratic candidate is part of our issue
Cardi B spoke more on politics than most of the rappers .Kehlani makes songs about folding clothes but stood up for Palestine . The issue is record execs telling them they will get black balled and often incentivizing staying dumb only speaking on allowed topics
I hear you but in 2026 nobody wants to listen to political music. Especially from a lot of the newer rappers we have now who aren’t even educated in politics.
The audience these days is more interested in what streamers, podcasters and comedians have to say politically than they are about musicians

Topic is about speaking out against pedophilia and ICE
This thread says nothing about ICE. It’s about Trump/epstein.
Why do people always look to black people to speak out on every issue?
Nobody is calling bad bunny a hypocrite for doing the Super Bowl when ICE is gonna be there

Bad bunny is the half time performer today and is political music . The reason so many apolitical rappers are being signed is because record execs want the populace dumb consumers . They don’t want people thinking to that degree . Kendrick was perfect to them because his political messaging never goes too far besides being marketable performance
Bad bunny will say more politically today even after all the threats he received than Kendrick did last year 2 weeks into trumps presidency. Bad bunny has much more a risk of blackballing than Kendrick . If we have rappers that are in positions of power that choose to say nothing . They billionaires . Or they billionaires and go crazy or choose to care about themselves more than the people ( ye) then we all lose

It’s a reach . You think undocumented immigrants are going to a 4K Super Bowl ?

Forget bro quoted his own dumb s***. Kendrick fans will repeat conservative talking points like it’s their own if they get a chance to be ignorant to Latinos

He literally passed on a 500M dollar tour if not a billi to make a political statement. He doing more than any rapper.

It’s not a reach though. They literally reported that ice is gonna be present at the Super Bowl. Not just the game itself but the surrounding areas. And we know San Francisco has a large Latino population.
That’s more hypocritical than anything yall try to thrown on black rappers. Yall niggas love picking and choosing it is what it is though.

Messaging doesn’t mean anything it’s all performative. The money from the Super Bowl is all funneled back to the billionaires who are funding ICE anyway
Feb 8A damn shame when Sabrina Carpenter and other pop artists have more social conviction than our fellow rappers.

Is Kendrick a hypocrite for working with Super Bowl after watch the party die , Super Bowl working with military and nfl treatment of kapernick. You think the Super Bowl a trap for mass deportation? So since ice going he should cancel ?

This is the dumbest take. There is a power in messaging. He is doing more than any artist his level.
Your logic is flawed in practicality, That's like saying you making this thread is performative because you are sitting on google chrome with ad revenue going to the same companies.
Don't let perfect get in the way of doing good.

You could call Kendrick a hypocrite for that, I don’t care. My point is bigger than Kendrick. My point is why are yall picking and choosing

Some of them do support ice but again many of them are racist lol so how is Kendrick going there and not saying anything political not an issue for you . But bad bunny going there with a message is pointless to you

Bro be real. Anything he does on that stage is pre approved by a boardroom of billionaires.
When was the last time a musician doing a political performance actually changed anything.
Epstein files gave us a small peak into how this s*** is run and you guys are still looking to popstars and rappers bro.
