How The Hebrew Israelites Influence Kendrick Lamar and Kodak Black | Genius News 

As a black man I get with what they the Hebrew Israelite believe in & I truly respect it but I cannot get down with the racist things they shout down to people who aren't colored.

This aged like fine wine.

One minute black people are saying we’re the originals native Americans , the next we’re claiming to be Jewish. Y’all want to be from everywhere else BUT West Africa. We really need to stop appropriating other people’s culture. The same way we get mad at white folks for trying to steal our culture we are doing the exact same thing. People of West African descent have NOTHING to do with Abraham Judah or any other MIDDLE EASTERN from the Bible or Torah. It’s okay if you resonate with and follow Abrahamic religion like Judaism Christianity or Islam. Nothing is wrong with that but to force your way and completely take over another groups cultural identity is wild. DNA testing has already proven black people are not descendants of Jewish people. We come from West Africa. West Africans had their own tribes, empires. spiritual systems, Philosophies and theologies. It’s okay to just be from West African with no other influences.

I gotta say, the recent controversy with Ye & Kyrie got me searching Israelite content again.

We wuz hebrews n sheit.

dam you missed Nas. How could you miss Nas? He been dropping the word Israelite and its knowledge in his verses.

And Ye and Kyrie. We in there now!!

There are several Hebrew Israelites classes that are not on the streets, wearing strange outfits, cussing and being disrespectful to ppl, that teach the Uncut Word of God and don't teach hate

Kodak just said he is Israelite so he had something to rhyme with "is real ice"

**WARNING** **WARNING** Going through the comments section will make you loose brain cells.

Crazy how things work cuz now Kodak on Kendrick's comeback album

Here after hearing Kodak on Kendrick's album.

"im an isrealite, my diamonds are real ice." is a stupid line. How did he get famous. Those two sentences have no correlation whatsoever.

Where tf letty?

Bro I hope you understand that that prophesy in Dt 28 was not a prophetic foretelling for African peoples. It was a prophetic foretelling for the Israelites who were in Africa.

All praises to the most high!

Hebrew Israelite is not a religion it's a nationality! We are a spiritual ppl

If I was a hebrew I d be so pissed! Its basically someone claiming your history without reliable historical proof.

Silly. Yes the word is true. Hebrews /Israelis are brown, darker, or even dusky, ruddy, black. NOT just black. And in the book of Peter. It's mentioned don't waste time on genealogies and controversies. If you study the Bible... And don't realise, that we are saved by faith through grace... And we are adopted by God.. When we trust in Yeshua... And instead of this u go Around saying this color And that color is the tribe and the rest is nothing. You denying the Jews in Israel. You denying the gentiles that Yeshua died for too.. Yeshua is for all the lost, least, and struck down. So I can only rejoice if black, yellow, red, blue, brown , purple, every one coming to Yeshua. It's Very good To learn Hebrew, see the word in God's intended meaning and Jewish cultural perspective, and walk in the light and be the salt. But using the knowledge of the word to feel better than the other, means you have completely missed the mark. .. When I read the word. I see I am all that fallen and sinful and God is good and holy and has A redemption plan for me. And all who acknowledge Yeshua as God. Cuz He is. And even for that, one needs the Holy Spirit. So can't be arrogant about one's faith. Cuz faith in Yeshua is a gift.. Of Ruach HaKhodesh.. So if anything, reading the word should humble us, and help us see that we are at the mercy of the Creator. FYI : I'M NOT WHITE. YET, I say this.

Eyes to see & ears to hear, 2/3's of Israelites don't have it and will be destroyed along with their oppressors

Please don’t compare Kodak and Kendrick

Not black isrealites....just isrealites

Kendrick, Kodak, Kanye & Kyrie.....the signs are there o "K" ....🤔👌🏾✊🏾

Great analysis

I respect anyone seeking knowledge, and truth be told I would have been apt to joining the "Hebrew Israelite's" had I had run into one of them prior to studying African History but the fact that they don't recognize our African origins and the fact that they seem to believe the bible is history makes their doctrine/teachings seem ignorant at best.

Justifying slavery as God's punishment? Tf?

Saw My Man's General Hashar up here😅😅 That man Be putting out heat

I was looking for this " what Kendrick Lamar and Kodak black have in common"😅😅😅

"Siri, define cultural appropriation"

This guy is too enthusiastic doing this video lmao

Ofc this on my recommended right now lol

Y’all need to make 40min video on this

Baruch 2:30 In the land of their CAPTIVITIES, they shall remember themselves......to hear:And they shall praise me in the land of their captivity, and think upon my ...

That happens when u dont hv good education and too much time

Great piece Jacque and Genius 🙌🏿

Horribly incomplete to talk about BHI without talking about how controversial and antisemitic they are.

Some of you seem to forget it's not about racism its about Nationalism.. Its not about a "race" 🏁..

"This sounds like trick question I know" he legit sound like one of those internet college people

This puts so many things in perspective. Kodak made an album name bill Israel

Woah that was a throwback with Chingy

The real Hebrews are beginning to wake up these rappers only touching the surface of what they need to be knowing and if you are black Hispanic or Native American you need to repent and keep the laws statutes n commandments of YAHAWAH WAKE UP ISRAEL MY PEOPLE WAKE UP!!!!!!!

Well there's actually two kinds. The Hebrew Israelites that happen to be more in number, the ones that they may have encountered are a religious group. But true Hebrew Israelites know that that word is their identity. It's their nationality not a religion. And also believe everyone should and can be saved no matter their skin color

Delusional.

Y’all check out “Scriptures of Truth.” The artist used to rap with Jeezy and be part of CTE but now goes by Uzzial Halalyahu. He goes in!

"And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that Elohim is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham." Matthew 3:9

2/3 of our people will die for lack of knowledge and obedience.. Learn who you are brothers and sisters

4 year later and we got Kodak on Kendrick's album. Coincidence?

Who knew Kendrick was going to get a Kodak feature?

not all of the hebrew israelites are as fiery as some of the brothers you showed; thought of killah priest and dougie fresh as well, glad u talked about them. also aslan neter, remedy from wutang(he's -idk-white jewish tho), looking up those u can find a whole underground of others, if interested...shalom/salaam from a muslim brother

Deuteronomy 28:28 actually says "the eternal will strike you with madness, blindness, and dismay"

This is deep I love it 💪🏾

DURING COMMERCIALS I WOULD GO OVER THE LESSON AS BEST I COULD AND GIVE HER A WRITTEN COPY.

Riddle me this, how is it possible for you guys to Nubians, Egytians, and Jews? The argument falls apart in seconds with just a shred of fact checking. You guys are just larping, dont stop though it's really entertaining for the rest of us. "Everything is historical revisionism except actual historical revisionism, which is fine"

LOVED IT! keep it up

You should listen to “Desmond Dekker - Israelites”

Imagine trying to cancel Kung Fu Kenny lmao

This guy looks like the black Vsauce

Kodak Black? I didn’t expect that.

I see you have taken up your star of remphan. Fitting.

The narrator was on point somewhat! It’s the shield of David! “ Not Star!

This is how you flush great talent out of the media.

Wonder how the founders of Genius feel about this video

Who's here from their collab?

Kodak does get the same kind of love

Shout out to black Hispanics and native Hebrew Israelites

*All the Stars are closer* *400yrs Are Over*

here because of Kyrie

HE POPPED THE TOP ON EVERY BEER I DRANK.

Pretty sure Kodak was just looking for something to rhyme with real ice

Kodak Just A Jake Who Know He A Israelite Who Continue To Sin.

You forgot about KRS 1 and the X Clan...

I hope they know who their savior is and follow a true Bible!

"The bleakness of our times... Police brutality, an unstable political system, and global warming." 🤣 It's like Genius did zero research for this video...

We are a nation of people not an organization.

This makes so much sense now 👁

All facts we the people of the kjv Bible Deuteronomy 28 KJV QAM YASHARAHLA 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾Hebrew Israelites 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

WE WUZ JEWS ND SHIET!

He a israelite with a cross a his neck? 🤔

Genius always ahead of its time, Kodak killed it on the new Kendrick album!

THE DOOR OPEN. HE WAVES HIS HAND. "KEEP TRYING".

for some reason this organisation is so infuriating. if you all look into it you’ll understand and deranged they are and cultish. disappointing that big MC’s are even slightly legitimising them.

Everyone comparing Kodak and Kendrick, I'm trying to find out when Vsauce turned black.

This video is extremely messed up.

Shalom brother!

In Kendrick Lamar's most recent interview with Rolling Stone he kind of deflected the whole Israelite thing by saying he was speaking from the perspective of his cousin. So maybe he's not an Israelite or maybe he's in the process of contemplating it. I hope he doesn't become a full-fledged Israelite. He's way too smart for that bullshit, but even smart people can get caught up. There's so many holes in that belief system you could fly a plane through it. It's definitely not based in archeology, anthropology or DNA. Not to mention it's fucking racist. The whole Israelite doctrine was not created in Israel or Africa but by some understandably-angry and insecure black Americans with an over-active imagination. Kendrick started to explore his African roots on to Pimp A Butterfly. I hope he goes back to that and digs deeper into his African heritage in his next projects. But time will tell...

The information is out there, knowledge is power.

The Truth 💯

Did he forget Tacitus famous Greek historian said the Jews looked like Egyptians and Ethiopians? Hmm

Any Israelites here?👋🏽

the black vsauce

Kodak BODLY claimed he a Israelite!Great for Kendrick as well!!!

This is 🔥. Although I trust no one in the industry. Period

All praises to the Highest 🙌🏾✨

Now I see their connection. I love their music together.🔥

Gn 49:8 KJV Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.

What's the first beat in the intro?

Uhhh ohhhhh !! PRAISE YAHHH !!

Qam YASHARAHLA we do not believe WE KNOW

Now they collabin on MMATBS, makes you wonder if Kendrick saw this
