He's right.

Every week, there's a new story involving Blacks. From the riots to Rachel Dolezal to Mass Shootings to Flags to protests to unarmed black men to Obama dropping slurs


A news story involving blacks is somehow invoking a race war:why: Info wars really got folks going now, funny thing is, the big media stations stay on late pass with these stories.

Easy, by organizing a set of demonized events that will invoke a full out Civil War and bringing Martial Law into affect. It's gone deeper than just Police Brutality, they are assassinating our black figures now with these domestic terrorist attacks. It's almost like history is repeating itself. People were calling that Senator/Pastor the next MLK.

We have different ideas of what the word easy means.

The media covering events is not the same as creating them. They don't even cover every police shooting or race incident only the high profile ones.

I have a problem with the "race war" comment.
Their has always been attacks on black people. I'm not dissing them I'm giving critique on their statement. I'm a Kendrick fan as well but that does not stop me from voicing my opinion and thinking critically about whats being said.

Lets be honest, I'm out on the West Coast and if it weren't for social media and other outlets none of this stuff would be reported out here. However racial injustices would still be reoccurring whether you're aware or not. It's a lot of "hate crimes" that virtually go unreported and or just lazy reporting in the south. So someone from the west coast would have different perspective on the situation.

The Folks out in the West coast don't see the build up from small stories and local community relations so they think the national news coverage is "sensationalize media" or some random attack on black people from "southern white racist" or a "race war brewing".

This Race War has been around for 400 years.

If you have a problem because he mentioned Race War, then I don't know what to say to that

Once again you're bringing up the media. And to Kendrck, and I'm sure to a lot of other people, these events are deeper than just "hate crimes" you can either agree or disagree. But condemn us for it, not saying you are, but generally speaking thats what i'm getting from this thread. I'm sure if Kendrick had time to go deeper into how he felt, he would have. I still don't get the outrage and how this makes Kendrick a c00n for speaking from a religious point of view

The problem is not the fact these media mediums are reporting the shyt, its because they report it with bias and with a agenda. Do you agree or naw?
That shyt they did with Trayvon Martin, posting facebook pictures and shyt trying to dehumanize him into a thug was wrong. Did the same thing with Mike Brown, I don't understand why yall caping for the Media all of sudden, it's always been fukk the Media from where I'm from.

If these media outlets, which are ran by whites, actually care about these stories and us, why was the LaVena Johnson tragedy hushed up to the point no one knew it existed unless you came across a random Youtube video. I posted a thread about her on here, and nikkas in The Coli was acting surprised they never even knew about that. You wanna know why? Because theres bias and a agenda on whats being reported in these mediums. So excuse my french but quite frankly, fukk THE MEDIA. I bring her up all the time and people look clueless like "who?" Then they google it and see just how fukked up it is

I wasn't talking about media.... :beli:

and neither was Kendrick

















but if you want to get in topic on the media then sure let's do it. fukk THE MEDIA

did you forget how the media portrayed Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown? Dehumanizing them as thugs. How come half the world better yet, over half the U.S doesn't know about Lavena Johnson? :francis:

Are we really gonna pretend like theres isn't a racial bias and agenda with some of these media outlets?

No one is debating that it isn't biased media. What people are sayings is that both of Kendrick and Q's answers were oversimplifying a bigger issue which is a white supremacist system.

You can probably say that for Q but half of yall mistook Kendrick's statment the wrong way from the jump. Thats not what outrage is about, the thread title says and I quote. Kendrick Lamar says media is trying to start a race war. No where in the interview did he mention the media. AT ALL


But ok, they didn't go deep enough into the topic for yall. Ok got it


is it oversimplified, sure I guess. Is it wrong? not to me

Why do they have to be c00ns tho?

Or they could have just got straight to the point and called out white supermacy. :manny: You can state that in a short statement.

well maybe Kendrick feels it's much deeper just hate crimes fluctuated by white supremacy :manny:

but I see where you're coming from and I guess we'll have to agree to disagree

Can't hate on Kendrick over that
Plus they been together since he even starting putting out mixtapes. You can't hate a love that deep.

there seems to be alot of unwarranted hate for the MC but hey, it is what it is

there already is a race war. the media isn't fabricating it as kendrick lamar is suggesting.
Kendrick didn't say anything about the media like the other dude said. Thread title and video is clickbait bullshyt.

An entire thread outraged over nothing :snoop:
