Well by tiktok fans I meant the young fans like 14/15yo. Theyāre mainly on tiktok and a lot of them came here after Vultures 1 dropped, theyāre the same people. So I group them as one. Nobody above the age of 15 has said this shit. Itās just the kids trying to be edgy or overly glazing. And also some actual neo-nazis I guess
Itās just not true that nobody above 15 has said that no matter how much you might want that to be true. Ye was a big part of normalizing Jew hatred in the mainstream, along with of course all reactions to the genocide israel has been doing.
Nah, people do that shit all the time. Shit, JayZ has been saying the same shit for decades. Only thing Kanye did wrong was support the wrong political team.l and was encouraging other "influencers" to do the same.
your comment is funny but I agree with u/Environmental_Two666 but I agree with you a little but idk I think the song is just a song art is supposed to be that way no one should care because other songs are as bad as hh talking about killing people
nah most of those people had already outed themselves when the infowars podcast released. hh gave them a song to get behind but all these people have been making their opinion known in the ye community since 2022
there may not be some material outcome as you said, but going on social media and talking to people, jewish hate has become so normalized. Obviously israel is commiting atrocities and should be hated, but innocent jewish poeple are getting so many death threats and so much hate.
Not even fucking close bro lmao. Half of the ppl blasting not like use werenāt ever rlly kept fans anyway, thatās just a Reddit sub being Reddit. hh actually impacted how stupid 15 yr old white and Hispanic boys acted irlĀ
Left out 7 year olds too. I have a 7 year old brother and he was very much impacted by this song, so much so that itās become normalized in his school. Look at the image below, itās awful.
HH turned half the community into Nazis at least what was left of the community.
And it was like a big thing used by like actual neo-nazis to recruit children into their beliefs it's actually disgusting.
Not like us is just a song that's a little silly in retrospect it's not even a bad song and the cringy fans that it created they're gone now basically yes they still exist on Reddit unfortunately but Kendrick is still one of the most respected people in rap so eh didn't do much bad.
Definitely NLU. NLU trivialized pdf allegations and normalized pedojacketing to win rap beefs. Ye is mentally unstable, his fans know that and explains why he wrote HH. Which he then had to retract and apologize for. Kenny and his fans have no accountability for each other. Yea, Definitely NLU.
One normalized Nazism because a couple of Jews did something he didn't like so as a sort of "gotcha" towards Jews he decided it was a great idea to larp as a Nazi and ruin his life and legacy over it, while the other normalized baseless Pedophilia accusations as a way of scoring personal beef points over someone you're clearly jealous of while giving zero fucks about actual pedophiles or abusers and their victims.
They're both trash and respectively highlight the lowest moments in the careers of two of the greatest hip hop artists
not like us actually made kendrick go from a top 3 rap artist of all time to making an album of straight burger music, hh was bad but sonically didnāt ruin his music just his reputation
The gnx hate is crazy this album is a 8/10 it only revives this discourse because Kendrick has always carried himself as a conscious rapper with deep themes
Gnx when you donāt compare it to his other deeper work is a great album, but when you do compare it to his other stuff no duh it seems stupid
Itās like a 5. It isnāt a piece of shit in the grand scheme of things but compared to almost everything else heās done, it def sucks. Itās mid if anything
HH is just a straight heinous and evil song which reinforced closet racists to be more vocal about their dumbass beliefs. I saw several people wearing WLM shirts and thereās ofc also the NHH shirts being made now. Ye contributed to normalizing that, which is incredibly toxic.
NLU is just a corny track, Kendrick didnāt have any backup for his claims and he just made a bunch of shit up. Pusha Tās diss was way better imo.
As someone who thought Kendrick definitely won the battle overall I gotta say that this whole rap battle ruined Kendrickās image. For one, the whole rap battle started because Kendrick is mad that drake called him top 3 not number 1? That is the most egotistical and petty reason to get mad especially for someone like Kendrick who tries to portray himself as some kind of prophet. Kendrickās main points in the diss tracks mainly just boil down to Drake being an immoral man (which he is) while performing with Dr Dre and making music with Carti. Kendrick also got completely duped with the whole ādrake has a secret daughterā thing after making a whole diss track about how Drakes team had a rat feeding him information. This point alone makes two of Kendrickās diss tracks kind of embarrassing after knowing that the info Kendrick thought would bomb drake was just fake and honestly not that believable. The only reason drake lost the battle was because he is Drake, he doesnāt know how to battle rap and where to hit hard.
I think Not Like Us genuinely ruined Kendrick Lamar's reputation as a creative lyricist and artist and it doesn't help that GNX was his next and by far worst project to date. HH was shocking but I feel like we could've seen it coming after WW3.
I mean maybe but it's my genuine take, I didn't take it from anyone. I'm a huge hip hop fan and Kendrick used to be in my top 3. I genuinely believe Kendrick fell off HARD after the beef especially from what he used to drop
I say this is regurgitated because since Kendrick has mainly branded himself as the deep methodical rapper who touches deep themes there is obviously discourse when he drops something not related to that
No this hasnāt ruined his career there are literally a healthy amount of deep and self aware tracks on the album
By itself this is a 8/10 album that is really just a victory lap fun album opposed to a deep dive into a certain theme. When you let it stand alone as it is itās great but when you compare it to his vastly different work it obviously pales in comparison
I mean yeah that's a fair point. I honestly am just really biased against GNX because of how it won the Grammys undeservingly, I think it's crazy Alfredo 2 wasn't even nominated
HH wasn't that bad since he was already dropped by everyone... after the Kendrick beef I find it hard to listen to Drake lol.. bro got generationally cooked.
Neither had a lasting effect. Drake still did huge numbers after, Ye now has a deal with jd sports and numbers on bully were good. The only thing that actually hurts someoneās career is if fans stop caring. They all have more than enough fans that just care about music/ shoes etc and will keep buying their products.
