DJ Hed on The Pop Out's "Lack of Mexican Representation" Conversation 

As a Mexican who loves Hip Hop I really don’t see why those Latinos said anything about being misrepresented. Yeah Latinos have a huge play in West Coast rap, but on Juneteenth? We shouldn’t be asked to participate in an event not dedicated to us. This is our African American brothers and sisters day 👌🏾 We can have “Unite the West” event another time.

IT WAS JUNETEENTH!!! This is the time us Mexicans sit back and celebrate Black culture by getting hyped in our living rooms.

As a Mexican dawg I really dgaf. Why does it matter when it was Juneteenth? That’s what I was telling my homies, it’s their day why they needa bring us lol

Ive seen alot of Mexicans saying that was a stupid take from eye.. They knew what it was about and not offended at all

As a Mexican who loves hip hop and the culture, while also being from the bay, I don’t care that there was no Latinos up there. The show was amazing and went down in the history books of hip hop legacy

As a Mexican, we doing okay 😂

As a brown no browns were complaining about this 😂

Bro I’m Mexican and there ain’t really any good Mexican rappers so what’s the issue, and it was Juneteenth not September 16. 🇲🇽

That was ONE podcast so it is what it is. I think a lot of the Mexican homies understand what it is

The most disrespectful part of that podcast is he doesn't even know what Juneteenth is for... smfh and he was complaining

I'm Mexican from Los Angeles and I thought the concert was dope. It was Juneteenth. Let's do ours on Cinco de Mayo or let's do a United thing together.

There's a bangin' ass Cinco de mayo festival in New York every year. " I be jamming in that bich". Never once did I stop and think... Damn how come Nas ain't get invited. He's a N.Y legend.

Mexicans were not even trippin,it was only one person that said something.

One podcaster named L.A Eyekon who isn't even Mexican said that there should have been Mexican representation at the Kendrick Lamar show. All of these RU-vidrs took that and ran with it making clickbait titles like "Mexicans Press Kendrick Lamar For Not Including Them At His LA Concert". Which Mexicans because it was only one Honduran guy. Another title "Tariq Nasheed Exposes Latinos For Doing The UNTHINKABLE To Blacks". Another title "Mexicans feel Snubbed at Kendrick's Epic Concert?", and "Mexicans Disappointed in Not Being Represented At Kendrick Lamar JuneTeenth Concert". And many more but it was nothing but lies. I can't find one video of an actual Mexican complaining about not being included in Kendrick Lamar's show. Don't be fooled people.

Im Mexican. I think this one dude icon was the only Mexican feeling some type of way. I didn’t see or hear anyone else share those feelings.

Mexican rappers aint on that stage because the really dont have no SLAPS. You cant just get up their and act like a Black Dopeboy and expect to sell records. You gotta make Universal SLAPS that Black Americans all across the nation feel. Then youll get your spot. Like BIG PUN. Nobody of any skin color can front on PUN, because he was TALENTED and had NATIONAL SLAPS!!

Yeah peeps gotta stop making shit racial all the time…. Every artist on that stage embraces Mexicans, stay in the same neighborhoods as them too. And the day was JUNETEENTH. Peeps just be REACHING for BS

As a CA native, I would like to see more events promoting artists from WA, NM, AZ, NV, OR, CO

People complain about everything

As a Mexican Hip Hop head that was raised in Compton.. i woulda rather seen Stinc Team members out there instead of mexican representation that day.. LLTR

Hip Hop is Black American Culture. It's the entitlement for me. Regardless if it was Juneteenth or Not. We don't owe nobody, this our sh!t. "NOT LIKE US" went over alot of ppls heads.

Why the hell would Mexican OT who's not even from California be at the event?? Y'all make no sense with that suggestion.

Im so sick of this conversation honestly YET here I am lol

They saying Eyekon not even Mexican

Why don’t they ask why Mexican’s don’t include blacks in their events???? Is anyone asking “where is the black representation during Mexican events??” (Boosie voice) “C’moan Mayne!?!” 😎

Bro Psycho Realm, Sick Jacken is a sick ass rapper. Im surprised by how many mexicans from LA not know about them

Ignorance is in every culture DAMN

Bruh.. it was f*cking Juneteenth. Simple answer.

ONE person said something and it got turned into "all the Mexicans thinks this". Come on now. We know whats up and we were happy af to see Kendrick and that show. What a gift. Gracias!!!!

As a Mexican this ain’t our moment it’s there moment

To not get that it was a Juneteenth concert…I mean lol what

All the Mexicans were in the crowd lol

🖤🖤🖤🖤👑👁️ All I can say is Kendrick Lamar 🖤👁️ president 2024

Before I watch this the fact they had Ohgeesy on there on Juneteenth was enough for me and they ain’t even have to have em on Juneteenth but shout out to DJ Hed

They are not a part of the culture. Why is this a question?

…. They not like us…. Goes for y’all toooo 🥴

La eyekon needs to sit down and eat his pan con leche

I couldn't have said it better. Thank you

Nothing but love from over here.

This the reason people be saying black and brown solidarity don't exist nowhere but New York

Lack of Mexican representation on Juneteenth a black holiday make it make sense downstairs for lack of black people is Cinco de Mayo because it's not our holiday

Eyekon is creating issues where there is none. This is how black and brown end up funkin over nothing. There’s gonna be another pop out, yall gotta let the homies set the ground work. This attention on LA is good for ALL of us.

I’m Mexican! Why are people even talking about this. It’s a black thing. We support it that’s it

A spotlight needs to be shined on Hispanic rappers. 💯👌🏿

This is a stupid conversation. I am Mexican and recognize this has nothing to do with Mexicans.

I definitely was looking for OT!

The best statement in this post 😂 Was DJ Hed ⏸️ on playing slow azz records. We need more music that brings men and women together in unisex. 🤦🏽💯😒

It was a Juneteenth concert not Cinco de Mayo

Mexicans putting in work in the rap game right now it can’t be ignored anymore ✊🏽💯🇲🇽

When 40’s function was on the radio on the entire west coast, the whole state was lit

Love to see the realness of this comment section

I guess they don’t claim Rucci or Geezy

They are literally not like us😂

As a brownie, I’m just glad we didn’t get kicked out the venue 😂

When he said, "Stop making slow ass records." 😆😆 Bro, some of my favorite artists are MIKE and Ivan Ave. But shoutout to DJ Hed. 👑

Under 90 is BRUTAL lol

Ok, let me get this straight, a lack of Mexican representation, at a Juneteenth event? 🤔 That's what we're talking about? IT'S A JUNETEENTH event. Doesn't, Juneteenth, explain why? Am I missing something here? Make it make sense.

As a mexican, we dgaf 😂 that shit was dope!! Plus OhGeesy was up there. Also mexican rappers haven’t established their name in the game yet.

This was exclusively BLACK and ain’t nothing wrong with that. This was not about anybody else and it’s about time Blacks folks ain’t tryna fit everybody in and worry about they feelings…

😂 DJ Hed putting pressure on foos “stop making slow azz records” 😂 even was nice and dropped it to 85 bpm on em 😂

If you feel left out it’s because YOU aren’t doing enough in the community

My favorite Latin artist is Snow Tha Product. I wasnt tripping since it was Junteenth.

Shout to League Of Starz.. Trend had some of my favorite beats at that time

Ray Vaughan represented Long Beach

It was June 19th not a regular day jn LA and the Mexicans homies def get love 🫡

Ain't YG the Mexican Tupac anyway

It’s funny I commented on hed page about west coast BPM being between 90-105bpm He disagreed that day

Myles Minick is dope af fr

Saying ARTIST are dope and not remembering their name is crazy lmao….

Tell eyekon if he wants More Mexican representation at a popout then get it pop in at your own show,no one is holding back.

Please address the individual who said that because he was ignorant. Not all of us.

Coyote is not only the best Mexican artist but top 10 RAP ARTIST AROUND OF THIS GENERATION

Ogeezy was there and had a premier lineup spot

Got damn we as blacks can’t have a thing lol without someone feeling left out man…it was OUR day let us have it. You don’t see any rappers coming out to mariachi festival or cinco de mayo like chill. We can’t have shit without anyone else always involved in it. We ARE the culture but damn can we keep some shit too 🤦🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

I was more vexed when he pointed at the White dude and basically said he should have been mad Eminem was not there. EM is from DETROIT!!

About to search up p low or however it’s spelled

I wanna hear the Cali Mexicans collab with the Mexicans in Texas

Just so people know Juneteenth is actually celebrated in Mexico too we have a lot of Afro Mexicano in Mexico our second president was half black 🤙🏼🤙🏼

No cap… my Mexican homies don’t give af fr. They made a joke that if they do an event on Cinco De Mayo that I better not ask to be included 🤣🤣🤣

Where’s he from ??

Super interesting: Black American are and have questioned (their) inclusion at all times and events. Film. TV. Politics. Etc. The consensus now is don't dare ask us to include other groups when we're in charge. Yet, please continue buying and supporting our content. That's doesn't stop. But asking us to consider inclusion is insensitive and racist to us. Yea food for thought.

Lynwood CA salute

Dismissed the whole question lol. Cmon Hed

Wheres the convo about the worst audio setup for the first 30 minutes

KDOT POINT IS THAT DRAKE IS NOT BLACK ENOUGH. he did an event on juneteenth , it doesn’t get more abvious than this , on top of all this genius he brings out LA CULTURE TO THE FOREFRONT. so just having this event its a whole diss to drake , genius.

1 foo said something and we all crying for representation now? We don’t give af

They must be LA known because I haven't heard of them

Yes more Black and Brown ! Love you DJ HED ❤ West Coast!!!

I think the only Mexican representation there should have been was anything related to the gang members he brought up on stage. If any. That’s about it.

Bruh it was Juneteenth. My people needa chill in this one. Especially eyekon, he a cloud demon like Adam16

It was Juneteenth bro. No one else celebrates 5 mayo other than Mexicans.

Nope , not one homie I knew complained about the “lack” or representation we Mexicans had. We have nothing to do with that holiday and it would’ve been up to Kendrick to decide anyways. Doesn’t bother me K-Dot held it down for the real Hip-Hop and West Coast… Real grown men mind their business and move on…Seems like this is just a narrative the media is just trying to push and create conflict.

Who cares, let's keep it real tho Mexicans from L.A has always had funk with Bloodz and Cripz and Black's in the streets there had been killings and Green lights on both sides. And behind them walls its been a lot of Warz with the Southern Mexicans and Blacks from all California. So it's there shit. Northern California Mexicans Chicanos Bay Area Oakland San Francisco Richmond Vallejo has always been different we been locked in Black and Brown!

Crowd was all Mexican and white 😂😂 stop it

I believe He was talking about Chito Ranas

Yeah Laeyekon was corny for that comment for real. It’s Juneteenth let them have they’re day. A Mexican OT and Kendrick record wild be amazing the flows on that track would be mind blowing.

Simple they wouldn’t have invited us. Who cares it’s our music and our culture.

why is everyone trying to put some scandal on Kendricks big moment? this dude is like the version of a white girl that acts super offended for the black culture, when nobody asked her to. like this situation, no VATOS are even crying about the mexican representation. we all know whats up. this was not a moment for our culture. yall represent for us like no other. Just like YG. No vatos are bitching. We supporting. Black culture has represented for vatos on so many levels. We love yall vatos. Dont let let this drake plant, put negativity energy on this big moment in history. They just lookin for clout.

Hip hop and Juneteenth is black culture so nobody should be feeling any type of way of what we created and what we celebrate. Blacks don't feel no type of way when we dont get invited to other cultures celebration Days facts 👌🏾💯😏

Dude what’s wrong with something being about BLACK,they got there own thang and we’re not there so who cares if people get sensitive ✊🏾
