Killer Mike on cac reviewer Fantano - arrogant outsider and colonizer

[wizworld]

That’s why I downloaded it but didn’t listen.

Not gonna lie, I looked at him different when he talks all this Black power shyt but his dad was a fukking cop, like do you really even care about the community or is this all just some repressed daddy issues?

But nah, I haven’t been bumping him since he got on all that political shyt.

Very few rappers with heavy political content have ever experienced poverty.

Chuck D, KRS, Cube, Ras Kass, Nas, Killa Mike, Guru (Gangstarr) had parents with "good jobs".

What type of "good jobs" were attainable for the average Black person in the 70's?
Government jobs and factory jobs for big companies would have to be on that list.

Also why are we acting like cops are an oppressive force in our communities?
The folks that don't care to make an honest living are the oppressive force in our communities.

Calling random journalists colonizers for not liking your album while being buddy buddy with a governor who actively harms black people and joking around with a podcast host who calls black people monkeys is wild.

This.

Fantano is a clown but Manslaughter Mike, who has dropped some bomb ass projects and Michael isn't one of them, is wishy washy as fukk.

Kill your masters and fukk the police but actually it's not their fault it's the pressure of the job you see my daddy is a cop so we need people of the community to police their own but fukk those in power I'm a rebel to the system we need more socialism but actually you should also buy land and real estate and become a landlord like me oops I mean like white people that's where the real money is at we'll solve our problem by behaving like them but kill the masters when I release deluxe versions of my albums remixed to cat noises.

Guys were triggered because the album wasn’t Yimby enough.

These are ‘real’ Black people in 2023

I have a hard time believing these internet cats are from a city.

I only know white folks that talk that way...
...so they probably join that group when they're in college and white folks got them thinking its the way to be "pro black"

kind of sad.

brehs too young to realize a lot of those white folks are going through a phase and also may have a family member they can fall back on when they're sick of being broke.

meanwhile the breh is forever stuck in that financial rut because he got fooled into being anti making money.

My father told me about this when I was young...
I didnt understand till I got to the other side of 30 and saw everyone change up

None of this has anything to do with his music. It's his politics. Like Cube and Chappelle, he is being punished for not following the white liberal orthodoxy 100%.

While I don’t entirely disagree, it becomes about your music when you make your politics the subject of your music and it seems to contradict itself from song to song. The thing is, most people have contradictory politics.

 

[JNew]

KM a music grifter just like he did over the last decade with the RTJ installments.

Outside of music is he a good dude who stands for what he believes in probably but he’s been milking the rap industry for decades now just like the rest of the rappers.

AF an outsider looking in. He reviews things for the sake of YouTube views. You will not see him at any rally’s or in line to protest.

Taking these 2 seriously is meaningless.

Killer mike will continues to milk the rap industry and shoutout any YouTuber to draw more views to his songs. And AF will continue to rate music he has really no concern or concept about.

Music is generally either trash or good. Rating an album on a 1-10 scale is silly. So if it’s a 6 out of 10 does that mean you only listen to 6 tracks?

I agree. Especially with the bolded.

 

[Ineedmoney504]

you do realize Killer Mike was present for each of those corny ass albums correct?

Correct. I knew he was selling out to a new cac base. I respected and acted like he didn’t exist for years until he released his own project.

These dudes are stupid bruh. You can be idealistic and say “hey socialism done correct would help a lot of people and I’m for it, but in the mean time I need to try and compete with the fukking cacs who buying up and owning everything”

Same fukking cacs they talking bout socialism with bout it inherit a crazy amount of wealth while we talking bout “let’s not own homes”

some fukking losers

 

[tremonthustler1]

how this logic looking motherfukker become herald as some go-to music reviewer?

Because he puts himself out there, Same with Pitchfork. They specialize in these things. Hip-hop publications used to specialize in these things too, til we threw them away and nobody has taken over that space (and rappers get extra sensitive to a bad review and then they shyt on the publication and "let the streets decide")


Question for the booth: who do y'all read or listen to for hip-hop album reviews?

It’s fukking crazy seeing black people take that posture. As long as you live in a capitalist society, you better make some money. You don’t have the luxury to act like privileged white kids talking that socialism/communist shyt. And I’m saying this as a democratic socialist.


We also need to stop throwing away important figures from our community(Killer Mike, Chappelle, Cube) who have a solid track record because they don’t fit 100% with the liberal orthodoxy.

 

[Soymuscle Mike]

Nobody is throwing Manslaughter Mike away, he occasionally makes dope ass music and that's what we're here for.

We make fun of these dudes because he cares enough to comment on Fantano

Cube is my GOAT but when he goes on Joe fukking Rogan's show to complain about gatekeepers then he's getting this work

 

[Billy Ocean]

None of this has anything to do with his music. It's his politics. Like Cube and Chappelle, he is being punished for not following the white liberal orthodoxy 100%.

How you feel about him palling around with c00ndace Owens and racist, anti-Black politicians?

fukk this fat, always cheesing, friendly ass cornball rapper.

You mean when he was being cordial to her on stage or is it something else? Either way, I’m not shytting on someone for association especially if I know they have good intentions and they don’t have a c00ning track record.

Oh, so now we cool with cops, especially with this cosplaying ass activist shouting out kill your masters and shyt
