We have a history of helping latinos far more than they help us.
You not going to see the reverse happen in films or music. No latin artist is going to put on an up and coming black artist. And no latin actor is going to cast a bunch of black people in their films.

Why? Reggaeton artists didn't reach back to reggae artists. Hell nowadays a lot of them have a hard time even admitting where the genre comes from. Now they doing the same to afrobeats and they did the same to rap. Reggaeton has just become an umbrella for Black music styles done in Spanish.

The LA artists he is reaching out to are already problematic and one particularly has issues with Black people. These same dudes cried about not being a huge part of a Juneteenth concert. shyt is tired and corny. Kendrick need to go help some people that look like him.

My reppin always has my location.
So an area not dependent on Hispanic dollars or support.

I don’t care to dig into the politics of this move, but it was wise.

I go to enough Hip Hop and R&B shows out here to see where the dollars are coming from.

There would be no sensible reason for Kendrick to not cater to Hispanics after they basically begged for inclusion after the pop out. And being around their culture for long enough, they ask for attention a certain way that may come off as whining to black folks, but if they didn’t like him, trust me, it would’ve sounded different.

These are facts, not my opinion.

:hubie:

Alienating his biggest supporters, ie the bread, would’ve been stupid. That and Kendrick has helped/cosigned plenty of black artists and has given plenty of money and time back to his own people.

Nothing you saying changes anything. I just talked about my guy. How does he alienate them by not catering to them during a Juneteenth show? Stop it b. The claims were bogus and salty from day 1. Regardless if and when they do take over a genre watch n see if the do the same looking back and acknowledging. He didn't have to validate that bullshyt narrative started by one hater. Choosing to focus on Black artists and concepts on a day of celebration of emancipation doesn't need to be explained to anyone with a fukking brain.

Oh and you dudes really need to stop coming online asking people where they from to invalidate their contributions. You knew where I was from. I didn't get into no local politics. Just straight logic.

I think Kendrick has made all the right moves so far and I honestly don’t think you know what you’re talking about. You’re not from Southern California and I doubt there’s a large Hispanic population where you are.

Your advice and straight logic got you where you are and Kendrick where he is, but somehow you know better.
