This is not news. The media's been trying to do this since always. Nothing new, but he should keep his feelings on the hush I'd hate to see such promising talent be brought to instant demise.
He was asked a question

This is a very c00nish statement by Kendrick and I like some of his music. The media isn't trying to start a race war, this has been what has always happened to black people in this country. Police Brutality, Police killings, white supremacy, white terrorism. All of this has ALWAYS happened in this country and just because the media is reporting more of it now doesn't mean that they are trying to start a race war. That comment by Kendrick is like the ultimate head in the sand, out of touch type of statement that there can be. He doesn't want to hear these racial injustices that happen to black people so he wants the media to stop reporting it. I am honestly disgusted by Kendrick right now. He can go fukk himself. I don't know how anyone can think this guy is problack or a revolutionary. He's just another rapper who's trying to get money and stay relevant.
Another dumb ass nikka thay doesn't know what a c00n is

The media had its own agenda. But don't get it twisted, systemic White supremacy exist. I think the problem lies in folks using the media agenda of "Sparking a Race War" as an excuse to deny any sort of REAL problems related to White supremacy. They could just say "Look, the media lied to us about Mike Brown, Eric Garner, and Charleston. Those were all hoaxes, clearly White supremacy doesn't exist"

Y'all clearly didn't get it

Basically this. What Kendrick is saying basically, is that he wants to stop the messenger instead of the source of the message.
The source is the same thing you dumb ass nikka.


They all run the Media. Fox News, CNN, whatever are all ran by White Supremacists and Racists

Now that i that the whole video.


First of all Kendrick didn't even say ANYTHING about the media. The word "media" didn't come
out his mouth :childplease:

So neg to the OP to misleading title



He said to me personally, "there's a energy, a evil energy out there trying to evoke a Race War because of the back to back demonized events. He said it's getting deeper than just hatred."

Schoolboy Q is the one brought up the media. He "ALSO"... the media.

This shyt is shameful y'all spend all this energy on fake outrage when you can't even fukking comprehend a simple interview. :childplease:

Yall have the audacity to call anyone dumb or uneducation when your comprehensive skills are lacking.

Yeah I'm a fan of Kendrick, but this shyt is deeper than Fandom and music. I'm fukkING tired of black people attacking other black people. Tired of y'all misusing the word c00n. shyt is getting old and it boils my skin with the shyt yall say. Kendrick and TDE aren't y'all fukking enemies

Yall always devote your anger to the wrong ones.


Bottomline there was nothing c00nish with what Kendrick Lamar said.

And anybody who uses that word is getting negged i don't give a fukk

They're right.

It's media sensationalism. If there were 3 race-related killings that happen in a day, the national media is going to pick ONE (whichever one has the most marketable story) and go ham on it.


And that one dude is right, you can't watch the Charleston shooting and not feel a tad bit differently. It's that same thing that Dylan Roof said about the Trayvon Martin thing that set him on that path.

The media sensationalizes things for reactions, bc they ultimately get to cover the disaster in the end.

Headline is misleading, it was Q that said that not Kendrick. However, it's not the media that's trying to start a race war; well if you don't consider info wars media.
They're just trying to profit off of it.
14 pages of fake ass outrage off a misleading title that nikkas prolly didn't watch the fukking video :snoop:

He didn't say anything the about the media

Where the fukk these nikkas get "demonizing evil energy" to the "media":snoop:

I turned my cable off about 4 years ago, but the people that says the media are trying to "start a race war" are just a bunch of scared negroes. The media has ALWAYS had negative depictions of black people, going back centuries. It's why Dylan Roof said "you're trying to rape our women" because that's an old racist belief held by whites

This shyt has always been going on. The only difference is you got scared negroes trying to tell black people not to pay attention to it as we're getting slaughtered.
The difference is those were heinous acts off of hatred. What Kendrick was talking about go beyond that.

but that's whole another topic on its on

I don't get the outrage over what Kendrick said. He spoke from the point of view of religious man.

There's more to Media than just CNN, Fox News and your 7 o'clock morning news. There's blog's, articles, we now have social media....radio, whatever.

Social Media to me is the worst, it exposes the true hue in alot of people. shyt is :scust:

I'm an admitted stan, but the opinion I'm about to express I've been mulling over for a while.

I detest the "c00n" rhetoric that infests the Coli's most pro black sections. I disagree with Kendrick that the media's influence on a potential "race war" is even worthy of disscussion. I'd rather talk about where we are going to get our weapons and how do we plan on attacking/defending then discuss whatever agent may have brought us to that point. And the media is definitely lower on the totem pool than the actual offenses commited against blacks in america daily.

However, just because we disagree doesn't make me a better black man than him. It doesn't make my opinion more valuable than his just becauss he thinks the media is to blame and I don't, hell, it doesn't even make us enemies.

Kendrick having a different perspective on the same issue doesn't make him a c00n. He isn't actively doing any damage to the black community, if anything, the music he puts out is atleast uniting a select few black people and promoting awareness, which is honestly more than you could ask for from any mainstream rapper not named J. Cole. Kendrick is far from the same level as a Raven Symone or Azealia Banks and it's frustrating that one of the few groups of aware black people around are so willing to throw a potential ally in the same pit so quickly and over something as minor as a different perapective/opinion.

Listen I'm not the type of person that throws the word c00n around. You can look up my post history. But when you have a public black figure who talks on black issues and says that what is happening isn't bad but the reporting is, then that is as close to being a c00n that I can describe. He cares more about negative peace with the absence of tension then actually airing out the injustice that happens to black people. I don't want to go on a whole diatribe of what is wrong with Kendrick's statement but as I said it's like one of the most uncaring statements I have ever heard about the plight of black people in America.

The only information you have on Kendrick's opinion is that the media is giving it a lot of attention. He didn't even use the phrase "too much". No where in Kendrick's statement did he say the Charleston shooting wasn't bad, c'mon now.

If we're going to throw powerful black celebrities into either the With Us or Against Us pile, we need to very careful, and fair. You filing in the blanks of his answer withpure assumption is doing neither.

How do you define a c00n? Kendrick isn't doing damage here, so just because he's disagreeing with a popular Coli opinion I'm not going to label him or cast him off. Give me your perspective.
