Kendrick Lamar - The Blacker The Berry (Prod. by Boi-1da)

[Matt504]

You must know not everyone thinks like you, so imagine those that DO think that way.


Okay, so THIS must be the debate. I just don't know how people are making this connection from that bar. Hell, it was in the bible that men SHOULD even have slaves...lol...Don't get me going on THAT shyt... .Check it tho, what IF we took responsibility and it were no killings because of the set you claim...no gang initiation shootings, none of that dumb shyt. What if we had the ability to unite and fight with one fist. You think they'd fukk with us then?...hell no...that's why they have built all these systems up to condition us to hate each other and fight each other rather than focusing on the real problem....THEM... It's a game, they moving pieces all behind the scenes while we still at the starting point...



What would your solution be?

You can't end gang violence without first destroying what necessitates gangs in the first place, once again, gangs are a SYMPTOM of a disease, the disease is what must be attacked to even have hope for a real cure.

diabetes is a disease, amputating a foot will only treat the symptoms of the disease, but the diabetes will still be there because amputation doesn't attack the disease, it attacks the symptoms.

My solution isn't a popular solution because it would involve more black people dying.

"I'm a proud monkey"

Disgusting line right there. Truly offensive in every way as a black man. Glorified self hate at its FINEST

And leonardo dicaprio just said it might become his favorite song of ALL TIME

We just have a philosophical difference that you're sleep to....It's all good..
We definitely are connected breh..

It's hard to debate when I agree with so much of what ya'll saying....It's just slight tweaks that i see that are needed...I see the world, life, totally different, without the fear and hate i should see it in...that shyt is all a lie...I'm wide awake tho..

it's all good brotha...us not thinking alike is cool cause we're not a singular minded people....and debate is good (sometimes) and can stimulate growth, produce great results.....in this case: we're looking at the same goal, just looking at taking different paths....

Reminds me of the thread where a white supremacist calls a white guy a n*gger lover because he adopted a Black child and the white guy responds, "well i guess I am a n*gger lover because I have a beautiful black daughter"

http://www.thecoli.com/threads/whit...his-adopted-african-american-daughter.286384/

Had he not been the father of a Black child he wouldn't understand. Dude called him a n*gger lover and he responds, "well i guess I am, I have a beautiful African American daughter", basically agreeing that his daughter is in fact a n*gger.

This guy's genuinely hurt and I empathize with what he's dealing with, but this child will continue having to deal with ignorance like this by virtue of her proximity to whiteness while being Black, I just pray she perseveres.

Cac didn't give a fukk because he works for himself and fellow whites won't stop doing business with him because he's racist, there will be very little consequence for him outside of being doxed and shamed online, but in the real world, he'll continue being able to support his family while being openly racist and not giving any fukks.

said this for "i"

and it became (from a pure critical standpoint) the best hip hop song of 2014 according to 600 Professional critics


guess my musical tastes aren't that weird.

 

[lutha]

again none of that shyt you typed pertains to Kendricks song

You are inferring it yourself as how whites would view it

Kendrick never said any of that nor did he make comparisons

he said he's a hypocrit to mourn a black life then take one himself

he's speaking from a gangbangers perspective that actually takes black lives

not from a regular black person who duznt take lives and is hassled by police and weirdos (like Trayvon Martin by Zimmerman)

that seems to be tha point you morons are missing in this thread: context

what are you talking about? i know none of the shyt i said in the post you just quoted from me had anything to do with the song...the person and I having that convo had stopped talking about the song a couple posts ago...we had moved on to something that came out of talking about the song....

as for the point you trying to make: no shyt....I get the pov he was coming from with the line/ending verse....I just don't think he should've ended this song like that....he should've saved that for another song and kept riding the 'fukk yall, i'm black and i'm proud' wave he was on with the first 2 verses....which is what I said in my original post about the song....I still think the song rides and I fukks with it, just didn't like the punchline/ending line....
