Aren't Kendrick and J. Cole supposed to be speaking against homophobia?

Everybody is praising them for being so socially conscious, deep etc... But how come Macklemore was the only one with the balls to tackle gay issues, when they run rampant in the black communities. Shouldn't our street poets who are oh so great, make that a topic too?

but i do appreciate them for the things they do stand for

I think that is the final reason I cannot get in. Everybody all about how they are so REAL and true, and have BARS and what not...

But why are they hopscotching about this issue. Then i could truly use.

I don't think its something that's personal to them
Maybe in future they'll touch on issue

i dont want them to do it just to get a pat on the back. if it isn't something they truly feel or understand just yet, then thats fine. As long they dont start gay bashing (in ANY way) then its whatever for now

yummy

are they really even "conscious" rappers tho? :dead:

they both have their share of sexist anti-woman bullshit in their music

I think for them the black issue comes first, because that's what they've experienced
No one has ever lauded them the most socially conscious or inclusive, but they do touch on issues that effect the community that they come from
and embrace them

there may be inconsistencies every now n then in their music, but neither of them have claimed to be Ghandi

Btw I feel like Macklemore are opportunist
Their whole pro gay thing came out when the whole thing about gay marriage was at its peak :dead:

SouravMay

People praise these two like the next coming of Gandhi.

Street preacher! Real issues! Thought-provoking!

I jus dnt see how hard it is to slip in a message of brotherly luv whether or not u share tha same sexuality or not
treat ur brothers ..like brothers

but i guess..takin time!
personal!

I don't understand.
