The kids excuse is shyt. Be a better parent. Talk to your kids, make sure you know what they're watching. Discuss issues with them if they're old enough.

I don't even know why the LGBTQ community didn't come at him. He's basically out here demonizing that community by perpetuating what most evangelicals see as demonic behavior anyway. They writing it off as a parody. Let it had been someone outside of the community who made the same exact video depicting a homosexual sliding down a pole to Hell and they would be calling for their cancellation.

I think you answered your own question. Why try to please people who view your normal life as demonic no matter what?

dude fused horrorcore and homo-hop and created a new subgenre of rap, homocore.

He's sending this message to everyone though, not just evangelicals who denounce the lifestyle. He's basically sending the message that his lifestyle will get him sent to Hell and he's embracing that fate if that's where it gets him. Not only embracing it, but going with the notion of "ruling in Hell vs serving in Heaven". So a person who is gay looks at this and sees him saying that their lifestyle is demonic when there are Christians who are gay who don't think they will be condemned to Hell for their lifestyle.

Nike gonna sue him and that company into Oblivion... he gon learn today...

 

[Pull Up the Roots]

"According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Nike claims the company's tricking consumers into thinking it approved the Satan-themed shoes, but Nike insists it didn't authorize it and "is in no way connected with this project."

This will get thrown out. In their advertising, they made sure to call them "Satan shoes" not "Satan's Nike shoes." They're not tricking anybody. And they're not making a reproduction. They are in essence reselling shoes they already purchased. One has to wonder why Nike didn't go after them for their "Jesus shoes."

I believe he's not named in the suit.

They probably don't make up a lot of the population, but let's not act that the fascination with the devil isn't prevalent within Western culture. I mean, even in the church, pastors will spend a lot of their sermons talking about the devil. You have Christians who romanticize him as some beautiful angel who fell from glory. In music, look at the Rock stars who have used demonic imagery in videos, clothing, lyrics, and artwork. They didn't proclaim to be worshipers, but they still used the imagery and people gravitated to it. In Hip Hop, think about the hours and Youtube channels dedicated to breaking down demonic imagery in the music. Look at the rappers who have used the imagery.

Nike being smart and positioning themselves FAR away from this fukkery.

Knew this was gonna happen. This faq just fukked up the game for custom sneaker tailors

Well, for one, Jesus doesn't damage their brand. Yeah, you might get complaints from non- Christians, but the backlash isn't going to be anywhere near as big as it would be for Satan shoes.

Nike aint known for losing trademark related cases

As a horrorcore fan I'm conflicted

If someone like esham or dj Paul or juicy j does it it's a genius business gimmick because theyve rapped about satanism before

But fake nas x is a pop artist marketed toward kids who is desperate for attention 2 years after his last/only hit

I'm all for free speech but this isn't about the message but the messanger

Breh, he went on to make 3 more platinum songs after Old town road. His last one was in November
