Pharell didn’t make anything popular in the south

Some of you dudes talk about the south like it's Mars. As if half of the board doesn't live there.

It's funny how one verse can **** up the game
You bought a 4.0 you better get your change
Ain't no platinum in those Cartiers, switch your frame
Ain't no manicures on board, then switch your plane

All these "studies" coming out now saying "hip hop is now the most consumed genre...". I don't believe that. When I was in high school hip hop was the only genre every race was bumping. Hip Hop has been dictating what's cool for at least 25 years. They just would look dumb tryna hide it now.

big facts.

So the endgame for the Social Justice Initiative is songs and apparel? Nice

Not trying to listen to a TI podcast.

 

[finessence]

I don’t wanna head TI talk about s****. He’s in my southern top 5 but bruh has turned into Jim Brown when he retired from the NFL.

Just crusading around spewing talk

You know Jim Brown did a lot of great work around this country after he retired right?

Duhhhh. He was involved in gang truces and whatnot. Civil rights, etc. I just don’t want to hear TI speaking on it

Alright. Everybody doesn’t need a podcast, man.

Hey Hey Hey...we're not allowed to have an opinion on this until 5 years later after we've seen the results.

Podcasts are essentially celebs kicking it up a notch from having twitter accounts.

Budden deserves more credit for changing the perception around rappers being media people

Take their twitter accounts away while we’re at it.

Lmaoo the exact same press release states

"Roc Nation and the league say the revenue from Inspire Change apparel will fund Inspire Change programs across the U.S. -- with a focus on "economic empowerment, police and community relations, and criminal justice reform."

But yea it's just "T-shirts & Songs" there's literally a web page showcasing where the money has gone in the past & some of the foundations & initiatives the inspire change program has funded... Jay & Roc Nation are gonna continue to oversee that program..... but again Narratives.

Underrated album from ‘94

I played the wait and see game, and yea this ain’t it at all. Jay said it’s “chess not checkers”, but that was for him. Everybody else was playing Connect 4. This is a terrible look and only the average NFL fan and cornballs shouldn’t satisfied with this. It seems like an outright ploy.

That’s the album I started paying attention and might be my favorite.

What's even funnier about this whole situation is that the same people bashing this deal were just congratulating Kap on his deal with Nike last year

Let me guess capitalism is good when ya'll like the person. Nike already having Kap under contract for years... and then restructuring his contract & line when they realized they could bring in big money once they repackaged it under "activism" was "powerful".

this is the most inconsistent era ever. Same ****** talking about Jay being a capitalist ran to NIKE of all places with dollars in hand to buy more Jerseys & T-shirts.
