@kemibello9943 Ай бұрын

You don’t have to make rap music 24/7 to be “in the culture”. Its not “hopping in and out of the culture” to be multi-faceted. How does Childish Gambino not have a connection to the culture because he doesn’t rap all the time?? Dude is literally from Atlanta 😂 there’s nothing wrong with him participating in other facets of his personality and creativity. That doesn’t make him any less black or less connected to typical black culture. The problem is that Elliott is conflating blackness with one particular type of behavior/personality and its just ignorant IMO.

@LtheDetective Ай бұрын

Saying Donald isn't hip hop is like saying Andre 3stax ain't hip hop. Dre plays the flute now instead of rapping...Sometimes REAL artists explore different terrains outside of RAP music, but it doesn't negate their roots in the culture.

Drake literally released 🗣FOUR RECORDS!!! He only dissed other rappers on Family Matters. Drake, the best rapper, emcee, lyricist, blah blah blah had THREE other opportunities to demolish his opponent but he FAILED miserably.

@CeeCeeMarie. Ай бұрын

@@user-pz4vb9cu8u I agree with you 100%. I don’t know if you have been listening to this podcast since the beginning, but Elliot used to be extremely biased towards Drake and DJ Hed was a biased towards Kendrick. But Hed admitted it because they are friends. Drake called Elliot a rat and now Elliot is leaning towards Kendrick more, but still has one nostril in Drake’s ass hoping he’ll come back around to him. And Hed is just being graceful (ala Ab Soul’s tweet about Drake’s redemption) because he stands behind Kendrick and views Drake as a pop artist not a rap artist. And being nice to Drake today does not change his stance that Kendrick is the better lyricist with the better disses. And I do remember him saying in the past that it was Drake‘s choice to not focus on Kendrick… and he had no choice because he didn’t have enough dirt on Kendrick to make an entire song out of him.

Elliott could stand to follow up his "that's just how I feel" opinions with actual arguments for why he feels that way about things. Even if it doesn't change anyone's mind, it would at least make the perspective seem less arbitrary. As it stands though, providing zero context as to why Donald Glover is allegedly "cosplaying" hip-hip, except repeating over and over that he just "feels that way", doesn't convince anyone who wasn't already predisposed to think so. Just because everyone's entitled to their subjective opinion doesn't mean anyone should entertain uninformed or unsubstantiated ones.
