This made th video 10x more corny

Lol @ this shyt ...nikkas talking about “look how he’s standing ...he’s jim crows embodiment!”


Just for them to tell us that NO this isn’t a cynical critique on black people and their perceived apathetic relationship to social consciousness ...rather it is a plea for blacks to embrace being who we are? ... so when Gambino says “we just want to party” and “get yo money black man” it’s in a literal sense not to be interpreted sarcastically ... yes there is trauma yes there is chaos yes there is the ever present dilemma of Damocles reminding you of the whimsical nature of fate ...however with all of that said .. yet and still ... we live :ehh:




I will say that this makes a whole lot more damn sense than some of these harebrained stretch’s that people were trying to put out ... and it matches the tone of the lyrics a lot more than thinking this was some sort of new aged revolutionary memorandum :picard:

I told yall nikkas. :mjgrin:

Aiming for the throne, jay and ye said to watch that.

Still one of my favorite songs from him

The lyrics to that song legit read like any Coli thread on him :wow:



My fear is dead, ambition drove the hearse
But nikkas got me feelin' I ain't black enough to go to church
Culture shock at barber shops cause I ain't hood enough
We all look the same to the cops, ain't that good enough?

The black experience is black and serious
Cause being black, my experience, is no one hearin' us
White kids get to wear whatever hat they want
When it comes to black kids one size fits all
