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

Racism is not a zero-sum game. You can like women and still be misogynist, you can like/listen to black music or hang around black people you 'like' just fine, but you can't help but be infected by white supremacy if you grew up in this country. The passive, pervasive nature of white supremacy doesn't require conscious effort from people who benefit from it.
Waiting for reps to come back to rep this. :psalute:
Too many people on here don't understand this.

Now If you're skeptical about him being an all out 'alt-right' neo nazi based off of what's presented in the article, cool, but "free promo for blacks" can't be the argument in his favor. He's not empowering or bettering anyone's life, he's making a buck talking about other people's art, period. The fact that deleted the content shows that on some level, he knew that it was offensive.

Slave owners could debate you underwater why black people are inferior then turn around and rape a blackwoman every night faithfully before their prayers at night...

A lot of people are woefully ignorant

Look at all the people overreacting and bandwagoning without facts so we can call someone cac and racist guys

:mjpls:

Fantano isn’t a racist - dude dated black women, listens to black music, and hangs out with black dudes. Actual “racists” don’t do that shyt
Look at this ignorant shyt here..
how the fukk did i miss that.. :dwillhuh:

have fun in the Bushes @DJ Tanner :mjpls:

This article made some interesting points. Him deleting his meme channel (which I didn't even know about) right after is hella suspect. I knew he was at least a closet racist by the
condescending tone he uses when reviewing Hip Hop. He's like a lot of craccas into black culture he feels like his garbage opinion holds more weight than it does by virtue of him knowing some basic shyt. Fucc him :camby:

the fans that ask for reviews

consumers control the market

Lol I think we are getting away from the point you would like to make

So Fantano, fully understanding of the pull of hip hop, makes a business decision and decides to cover the genre. How is this any different from a VH1 who strayed from their 90s format to bring in the black loyal dollar? This character is doing himself a favor and riding the gravy train :yeshrug:

never got the vibe from him acting like he knows everything or that his opinions hold weight
he doesn't have a condescending tone when talking about hiphop

Still haven't seen a proper explanation as to why it's ok for this dude to have pictures of black people being choked as a backdrop to whatever the fukk he was doing.

its a meme, he was reviewing memes , the guy is no different to a coli poster in the booth or even locker room

brehs actually think that was a kid being chocked out from the dark web type shyt and has racial undertones :dead: nah let me exit this thread i'll wait for him to explain

You missed the point again.

Your point is he is doing black people a favor by giving them promo

My point is he is doing himself a favor by understanding the genre is such a huge draw it makes sense to cover it regardless of how he may or may not feel about black people

If you find a way to fukk that up I will rep you just for being creative

I'm just going to assume you are a cac based on your lack of awareness when it comes to nuance and things like micro-agressions. You probly don't think it's racist when old white men pat nikkas on the bacc and call them "boy" either.
