Lolololol @ all these ppl thinking that b/c somebody is contrarian they are a free thinker. Even with the full context the statement was unnecessary and elementary af. Of course no one is 100% "evil" doesn't mean their heinous actions can't overshadow any "good".
Y'all seen the story about Octavia Spencer and Jessica Chastain? Octavia Spencer's salary for an upcoming film was raised by FIVE TIMES after Jessica Chastain found out how low Octavia's rate was and said for their salaries to be tied. Octavia Spencer the ACADEMY AWARD WINNING ACTRESS was being low-balled. Yet some cornballs on this radio station think Monique was just talking out of pocket.
dance4life1208 I know she was blackballed, but if you listen to certain frauds on this station, they were dismissing what Monique said about there being a color bias. "Well uh why come issa rae and tiffany haddish is doing it big?" Well explain how a whole entire Oscar winner can get short-changed so much that her salary is later uplifted by 5 TIMES!
If this is true, I'm glad Chastain did what she did for Octavia but its sad that it took a white woman fighting for her for this to happen. Im pretty sure Octavia asked for her salary to be raised before and nothing happened but everyone listened to the white woman. I'm not mad at Chastain she did the right thing for another woman just a tad bit annoyed that we need white folks to vouch for us in order for other white folks in Hollyweird to listen so that changes can be made. Kudos for Chastain for using her white privilege to help other women
Funny coming from a black person. Your people see race everywhere . Always complaining about white supremacy and racism even when y’all don’t have a genuine reason to be mad but jump on the bandwagon.
Jf Tremblay says the one who brought race into it just now. its not about jumping on the bandwagon. because racism still exists, its about about standing up for ourselves as a whole for what we believe in. And white priveledge does exist. if you dont see that then maybe you’re one of “them”...
Jf Tremblay u just brought race into a convo that had nothing to do with race, don't be a hypocrite. Also, if u can't understand why race is so important to black people then you're a part of the problem. Educate yourself some more on the topics u just brought up
lilli lilli her belief is that no human is 100% evil or 100% good. That's the point she was trying to make and I subscribe to that belief as well. Some of the most fucked up ppl on the planet has some good within them.
Ulysse he was a good painter you can actually google them and see for yourself. But there’s a difference between being good to the average person and trying to get into art school when thousands of other people are trying to get into that same school.
Hey Guys, my definition of a genius is one who sees things beyond the average mind. One who does his or her due diligence before speaking on a subject. Nowadays the average mind believes that everything they are taught at school or what they see on media is factual. Guys, please listen to the interview and we can have a friendly debate on each viewpoint.
Darth Weeaboo you should do your research before you make comments like that. it’ll stop you from looking silly. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7GeeC2ibD6g.html
*Lmao his paintings aren't bad, though. So she had a point. Y'all just so butthurt, y'all let all logic go out the window and ignore what was actually said. All y'all heard was his name and not the actual point being made.*
This comment caught me so off guard I laughed awkwardly. What on earth are you talking about? When was this crazy shit announced. Kirk Franklin gonna be a feature on there. BET.
I read the whole interview. & umm it actually changes the tone of those extracted quotes. I don't agree w/ her hitler quote, but the whole point she was trying to state was great, READ THINGS BEFORE YOU POP OFF IN 2k18!
Stephanie White I disagree,Wayne is rapping just to rap now.juat like most of these artist,ain't nothing positive bout the rap game,this shit got us distracted for years.
Christina Thomas ...some black people are so forgiving of their own no matter what they do. Just like Trump supporters are so forgiving of Trump no matter how much he insults people or grab women by the kitty kat.
but Hitler's evil tremendously overshadowed his good, so what is the point of acknowledging the little good that someone has, if he or she is leading a life of evil?
Even how bad they might say it is in America. And 1984 or whatever. IT IS NOTHING in comparison to how it is in many parts of the world. Libya still sell african slaves openly..
Her comments were reckless and disrespectful and she deserves the backlash she gets for those moronic comments. I can't believe people are defending her, unbelievable.
Sam Cunningham what she said was stupid dude! Just simple! Like her overal gist was good but she fucked up with that example cause it was stupid to say. It’s like that time trump said that Andrew Jackson and Columbus was a good guy. And we got all pissed off cause they were slave owners and promoted slavery. So yeah man what she said was dumb.
NicKingPapiChulo Hitler could paint and you don't have to look at Nazi flags flying over the capitol of Alabama state a black girl got arrested for taking down a confederate flag in 2016 imma need jew'ish people to stop the comparisons before the flames of hell burst out of my soul m'kay.
Honestly can't believe she got so many people up in this comment section saying "oh Hitler was a damaged man with a beautiful mind and potential to blah blah blah", and "she's just saying just because a person is evil doesn't mean they don't have some good in them" But why would you want to acknowledge the good in someone who is so evil? Imagine someone horribly violated, or murdered someone you're very close to for no reason- at that point do you really give a damn about how good they are at art, or how charismatic they are? People are only finding themselves so drawn to her statements because it feeds into their own ego with the thought of "thinking for yourself", which you can totally do, by the way, without complimenting psychopaths and murderers.
If someone has the time to spew hate at Badu or any other human for having an opinion different from their own, but has yet to get life insurance, a 401K, a college/future fund for their offspring, clean up their credit, become home owners, etc... I suggest your life would be better if you focus more on improving yourself and your station in life than critiquing eccentric celebrities. Media bullshit is not more important that Y O U. Shift your energy.Just a thought
that conversation was on a very artistic level. i feel like you have to be on a different vibration to understand that interview or at least Miss. Badu's side of it.
Charlamagne is right. Erykah Badu did have some interesting points in that article about groupthink and collective outrage. In a way, the response to her interview is an example of what she was talking about in that interview. People so quick to jump to outrage with the hive without even understanding. Anytime you reference Hitler in an unconventional way, you're bound to face backlash, but pay attention to that Jesus and Barabas story she used. It applies to a lot of what's going on today.
The way she portrays herself, I'm not surprised to see Badu say she can see good things even in sick,twisted people and of course most people won't read the article anyways. Did people even look at her pitchfork over/under vid? She couldn't even overrate anything. BTW I'll check out Lil Wayne/Santana collabs anytime I cant feel my face was fire.
And to all of the "woke" people in the comments section trying to make this narrative about people being mad cause she has a "different" opinion y'all need to stfu...cause people are mad because of what she said is ignorant...yes in this country you are entitled to free speech and to have your own opinion...but at some point common sense needs to be used...if that opinion is hateful, or ignorant; it's best you keep it to yourself(like what she should've did)...
I totally agree with Erykah regarding waiting on the facts before jumping to protest & stuff. I believe her to be an individual thinker....NOT a group thinker.
Breakfast club contradicts itself often. Not to long ago they had Toure on speaking about his interview with R Kelly. If CTG truly believes you can separate the art from the artist, why does he still refer to Kelly as a pedophile and not laud his music? Smdh. The dumbing down of America.
How does Erykah Badu not get Donkey Of The Day for saying shit like that? If somebody from the Trump administration said some shit like that then Charlamagne would give them the hee haw without hesitation.
damn... wayne went in hard for that 1, i think all this releasing of "new" wanye music has got him back to the level he was when he drop A-mill... need me some new wanye
