Boots Riley of The Coup : Now is as good a time as any to tell people that Rick Rubin is a behind-the-scenes rightwinger

[Jx2]

How

He was outed for sharing crazy red pill content a few years back on Twitter

The fact that people act like he’s a music guru/shaman just shows you how dumb the general public is

"He just looks like a hippie" and that's exactly what hippies turned out to be so people should've known this about him.

 

[BobbyWojak]

How

He was retweeting alt-right/trump shyt years ago, as far back as 2015 I think, but just like em's racist songs people sweep it under the rug.

We even have a thread on it.

"convinced"

fukk him AND Conye West

Yeah and fukk elon musk, too

Meaning no disrespect to anybody, but posting tweets about exposing racists and right wingers doesn't add up when the man who owns that platform openly embraces and promotes both.

Dudes have to be consistent about what they stand against.

Wouldn't surprise me if rubin privately holds those beliefs, but like you pointed out, west is a clown that nobody had to convince to shuck and jive. People who still support his content have to be consistent about what they stand against, as well.

I think i heard things to this effect years ago. At least that he was liking those kinds of things on social media.

I have always been disdainful of the way he's propped us as a "genius" in hip-hop circles.

THE BEASTIES DIDN'T NEED HIM why do WE worship him

 

[TrapHouse Rock]

I mean he did give them a Def Jam record deal.
Starting Def Jam is definitely a big accomplishment.

especially after he's admitted numerous times he don't know shyt about music and goes off "vibes"

White people.

No matter how cool they seem the chances of them being a racist are high.

My math says 2/3 of white people are racist.

That leaves the other 1/3 that are at least neutral.. which is actually kinda strange given the circumstance (being a part of the dominant group, but not abusing minorities or even helping minorities).

I was once c00n adjacent. I was always very militant about Black issues, but I believed the hype that racism was pretty much over. I knew there were still hardcore racists, but I thought they were a small percentage. I left the hood at college age and didn't look back for about 25 years. Never had any major issues but always little nagging shyt like white people would say something slick or I'd get discriminated against at work. Again. Chalked it up to the small group of racists.

And then there was Trump. Suddenly all my polite and friendly white coworkers and neighbors were accepting Trump as their leader and not pushing back on any of the rhetoric he was spewing. Truth and justice did not matter to my white acquaintances. Only power.

I was shocked. Some of these people I considered friends. Had partied with them and been to their cribs. One of my old smash buddies even said some shyt like "well, give Trump a chance".

I literally skipped town. I just up and moved back home one day.

And now. I'm skeptical of any white person I meet. It's no hate from my end, just careful. Same as I treat a stray pit bull. I wish em the best but stay the fukc away from me cause I don't know you like that. And I tense up in case the pit tries some shyt, but I don't attack him.

As long as you aren't referring to eminem, you won't get dissed. He's off limits cuz silly negroes love that kkkraker

Dr Dre(Yo mtv raps) was trying to tell yall about Rick Rubin

The same reason our grandparents had that pic of a pale jesus on their walls and prayed to him daily!!! He's fuking WHITE!!!!!!.

 

[good pups]
