Ari Melber on MSNBC quoting Biggie's "What's Beef" lyrics to get nikkas to take the vaccine

The way he says it so deadpan is pretty funny. Sounds like a scholar quoting rap lyrics.

"There's no such thing as halfway privilege just like...there's no such thing as halfway crooks. We know that truth from the great poet, Havok of Mobb Deep, who observed true criminal minds are always thirsty for recognition but you don't see longevity from halfway crooks...because they always end up...shook."

Or he's bonding over a shared love for something like...a...whats the word?
Human being.
He's a journalist on a major news network not a politician during election season.
Do you really think that MSNBC survives based on "the Hip Hop viewership "?
MSNBC
Planning to advertise on MSNBC? Effectv provides targeted, local TV & Digital Network Advertising.
www.effectv.com
The 87 percent viewership who are 35 and older (60 percent being 55 and older) that are being pandered to buy products by advertisers like Sleep Number beds and Omaha Steaks?
Is that what Lil Durk and Ice Spice are rapping about?
Smart beds and home delivered premium steaks?
Or is that lame cac shyt? For the people who make up the mass majority of their viewership and who determines their ratings.
I'm all for cynicism just not to the point of going blind.

Absolutely never to be trusted.
Is a white person liking hip hop some sort of crime? A good portion of his audience doesn't care about rap. My parents love Ari's show and they in their 70s and don't mess with rap at all. I don't think he's doing it as some sort of way to get support I think he just likes the music and expresses that.the fact that that type of shyt works on black folks
Yes
Music is human art. It's doesn't have a race requirement.Yes
