Fans are turning on rap. This young generation is more into conscious shyt now.

[Piff Perkins]

What’s conscious about not like us?

Hell, what was conscious about any song in the beef?

You’re a dummy if you think people won’t always prioritize fun and exciting in their entertainment choices

The last verse. People out here dancing to a hit song featuring a verse about historical exploitation of Atlanta fam.

That's the only conscious verse out of the beef which is why it stands out so much. Still amazed Kendrick pulled that off without losing people.

Lil Durk, NBA YB, EST Gee, Glorilla, Ice Spice, Latto..




Dead Prez couldnt be out nowadays. These new blacks cant handle that ether and truth about cacs.

I listened to Dead Prez for the Social commentary as a kid.

You haven't heard of Redveil

 

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

told yall kendrick been that dude you don't do what he did, without culture cache to binge

and not just the obvious atlanta verse. the breakdown of a person mental and emotional and familial, because he is used to breaking down his mental and emotional and familial. conscious by very definition "having a feeling or knowledge (of one's own sensations, feelings, etc. or of external things); knowing or feeling (that something is or was happening or existing); aware; cognizant.".... not just mere "politic".

People only accept Kendrick because of gang affiliation. when rappers don't need street credit anymore, then I'll believe something is changing.
