We really have a thread on why dj Khaled ain't going to fukk up his bag?

Yeah, he's fat, but he and his family probably want to eat tomorrow.

I don't even know who his fans are to be honest. I don't think they're buying records and streaming in Palestine right now and raps fans are not going to be able to sustain his lifestyle if he says "fukk Israel and the current United States administration for the genocide of Palestinians" and they yank his shyt off radio, tv, streaming platforms, cancel his shows, etc.

That has kinda been a thread idea of mine but I didn't know how to frame it :russ: Like could a average joe win a roast battle with a famous comedian :jbhmm: Coli hates Steve Harvey but he would cook everyone on this forum on the roasting tip with ease :mjlol:
Comedy is verbal MMA. The average joe can step in the ring and maybe throw a few good swings, but the worst comedian is STILL gonna pack you up.

Just go on YouTube and see how they be smoking hecklers lol And that's just an appetizer

To be fair, Dave isn't 100% sure what he does or doesn't do behind closed doors. I've seen people accuse him of being a Hammas supporter lol, also seen his own family call him a sellout.

Who he is aside, I think it's fair to call out the idea of a Palestinian celebrity, who surely breaks bread with a ton of small hats in this industry not saying anything about the genocide, unfortunately he's the only one to point up.

Is it fair only because he is a celebrity of palestinian descent? Celebrities have extra responsibility to be vocal? No freedom to keep their belief and personal politics to themselves? The doesn't really seem fair if we're being honest. expected of him? yeah perhaps. But fair? Doesn't seem like it.
Like others have said, it seems weird coming from a guy who mocked this sensibility in the past with the "where ja?" routine

Fair to him personally? No

A fair point to make, objectively? I think so.

Even if it's not fake news, which it probably is, this is a little more specific than the Ja Rule/9-11 scenario though I understand why someone would flip it.
