i'm fine with black pride songs, but In no scenario should we be discussing black on black crime w/ white supremacy(police brutality). its fine if he wants to talk about black on black crime but he should have left the hypocrite police brutality line out of it. shyts disgusting and c00nish regardless how he explain it.
He does that deliberately, to draw parallel yes
but not for tha reasons yall accusing him of, he's not saying tha reason Trayvon is dead is equal to a gangbanger
he's looking at tha bigger overall picture, you have a oppressive system that is killing you, and you want to rebel against it becuz it is killing you, then why would you do tha same thing it's doing and kill your brother, how dense do you have to be to not understand that?
nowhere did he justify Trayvons death and say it's cool becuz we kill each other all tha time
Instead he's using Trayvons death to inspire blacks to not have ANY black deaths, even so called gangbangers, becuz to Kendrick that's his peers, wut society deems as gang bangers are somebodies brothers, uncles, cousins caught up in tha mix
again you have to view tha song in its proper context, Kendrick rapping it as a banger from Compton to stop tha killing
it's not a song for all blacks or whites to apply to themselves
That's where this whole 50 page argument is rooted in....
