It's virtually impossible to truly "cancel" a musician/comedian.

been telling cats this ... its the case for decades

the only people worried about being cancelled are the ones trying to sell out the hardest

people bring up Rkelly and nikkas who have committed actual crimes and shyt like its the same thing. You can say whatever you want if its what you believe in.
if you're a comedian and say disabled fakkits. people get mad but those are the same people who probably werent into your show anyways

The very definition you are using proves the point made in the OP true. :jbhmm:
Cee lo was a mega star. He's using boosie and Corey Holcomb. shyt not even close to the same. He was trying hard to come back and was still getting dropped from festivals 5 years after the shyt.

Again, you are proving the OP point. :yeshrug:
Musicians / comedians... don't need white owned "festivals", TV shows, etc to make money.

As already pointed out as examples
  • Kevin hart rented out an entire stadium to produce his own comedy show then sold the performance as a movie/DVD
  • Roland martin has the "Blackstar networks app" and website to stream news and shows
  • Kev on stage funded his own world wide comedy tour then created "KevOnStage Studios app" to distribute shows
  • Lill boosie even has his own annual Boosie bash festival.
  • This is before mentioning other local venues available from small clubs / halls, to large Civic centers, stadiums/arenas , etc.


You pointing to white own venues in an attempt to prove your point simply revalidates the overarching point that...

It's virtually impossible to truly "cancel" a musician/comedian

...why? Because there are to many independent venues to make money through besides those white owned venues.

My question is, How come these artists don't just do their own events? How hard would be? I imagine you just need to hire people and get some sort of permit with the city.


Easier said than done.

And it's a whole system designed in place so shyt like what you described doesn't happen.

If Boosie on his 3rd annual festival with his own name on it...
