The Needle Drop pioneered music review vlogs. His lesser-known channel was a bid to win alt-right

[criminology]

So, judging by the other memes, he didn't make the meme with the "n-word" caption. He say a meme he thought was funny that contained the "n-word" and that makes him racist? So, by that logic, cacs laughing at a black comedian saying that word is racist, and cacs enjoying any hip hop with it. I'm not buying it breh.

What’s his intent tho? The pepe shyt, especially in 2016/7, is not even suspect anymore. It’s straight up. Add the choking, the racist cartoons and the rest. There’s no ambiguity or “signaling.” It’s straight up participation.

And there’s no parody in 2017, especially with that stuff. it starts off as edgy memes/South Park/Borat “just a joke” on purpose to normalize it and snowballs into nazis marching around yelling blood and soil. It’s insidious.

But here’s the question... why is he choosing to use his platform to stoke American racism with offensive imagery instead of using it to combat it? Probably bc he is a self-important, disingenuous opportunist who isn’t as smart as he puts on, which is why I never listened to more than 90 seconds of a review from him. It was pretty obvious then, and now it’s plain as day.

I'm not a big Fantano fan but this was a jealous Fader hit piece. Other page was clearly a parody.

The hit piece exposed him. I don giv a fukk about they agenda; it was the truth

The other page was a parody? A parody of what

It was a channel of video memes and edgelord commentary.

That in and of itself is racist.

Edgelords = racist.
Kek = racist
Frog memes = racist
Trump = racist
***** = racist
Reddit = racist


I had to look up wat SJW meant

The first hit was urban dictionary which says its another word for ngga lover

shyt like that lets me kno wats up

honestly if you don't at least respect fantano's reviews you're a fukking idiot

i don't always agree but he's the best music reviewer on the internet and it's not even close

being a regular on a hip hop music forum and saying "oh i never liked him anyway" is embarrassing

the thought of fantano being racist is hilarious

you guys say this about everyone recently

every white guy is a racist trump supporter

i dont even care but yall just come off as dumb



neg away

Are you white? You italian?

Even if i DID respect his reviews he is parodying black artists and making corny videos for children.

Thas not whats up for a music critic. Funny cuz hes also dressed like a fake rapper in all his videos too.

Seems like a conflict of interest.

And now he got these racist vids in the millions of views?

Cant hold peoples hands anymore; you either see it or your a cac

Probably a hit piece but him deleting that page isn't a good look.

Yall cant be serious.

@Jigganaut does it matter if its a hit piece? fukk fader but it is what it is they exposed him

I'm an old nikka not really up on all the internet racist shyt but he probably was catering to them folks and the deleting of the page was an admission of guilt. I just never gave a damn about this dude. I wouldn't go for this nikka for an opinion on black anything let alone music.

:peeumad:

 

[The Dust King]

have you ever watched those videos?

Yea I linked one a few pages back

There's no debate


Edgelords = racist.
Kek = racist
Frog memes = racist
Trump = racist
4shan = racist
Reddit = racist

Anything that even gives a nod to the alt right gets shot down by me

Can't speak on others; but then again this sites users/lurkers are mostly white people

You fell for the okie doke, you let the media tell you what a meme meant. You let Clinton's platform tell you a cartoon frog was racist. This is from someone who is NOT a trump supporter in the slightest, they got you SHOOK OVER A CARTOON FROG. You realize regular people were posting that frog and still do without any racial connotations? It might be used by racists, but so are tons of symbols, including the american flag.

What other racist cartoons were there if you don't include Pepe though?

"Snowballs into nazis marching" when the fukk did Borat or South Park ever lead to that?
Pepe the frog is like a word, it can be used to mean different things. Just because someone uses Pepe the frog doesn't make them racist, and just because a racist uses it doesn't make IT racist. Just because Fantano doesn't agree with a certain branch of the media's take on a meme doesn't mean he's racist. Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse are racist as fukk but I don't see yall protesting every cac who has a mickey bumper sticker.

The bolded I could agree with though. It does feel convenient. I think he, like everyone else, took advantage of the political climate, leaning more center when everyone was saying "you're either left or you're right".

 

[noumena]

Nice argument breh

 

[waltthizzney]

u could tell dude was a POS the way he treated nardwuar

 

[ZEB WALTON]

Whatd id like to know is this

Why is it that CACs on BOTH sides got more posts in here defending or attacking than the posters who actually should have an opinion on this?

Just curious

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

this guy gave Life is Good a 4 out of 10

nikka doin the urkle on'em

 

[TruDatz]

So he turned out to be the real 'n1gg3r' out of everyone. Quick to give his butt up for a dollar. I won't give him the benefit of the doubt because you somewhat have to believe in the views you're spouting to come out with all these types of videos. You can't just ramble about a topic and be bang on to your audience. And the fact he deleted the channel at the first sign of a challenge shows it was fugazi and not satire or social commentary.


I wonder how his black wife feels about this sh1t


But then again after reflecting on the couple music reviews of his that i've seen her in


I doubt she blinked twice

His wife black? SMH

He hated music with soul

He loves shyt like Yeezus. Of course he's a racist. Go back and look at how he reviews any concious rap acts.

I been told y'all shyt was suspect.

Ain't he a huge Kendrick fan??

White hip hop media love them some Kenny
