~~He’s probably a Black Israelite. He rapped about it in one of his songs ~~

jk, I didn’t listen to the songs carefully enough

How so? He put the snippets with his Black Israelite uncle on Damn as a way to reinforce the theme of problematic elements of Black culture and his immediate environment. It wasn’t ever supposed to be an endorsement. I don’t see how any brand of zionism really fits with Kendrick’s public persona at all. And the angle of him being a Five Percenter, Black Israelite, or Black Hebrew just doesn’t check out either, all those groups are extremely antisemitic meanwhile you got him sticking up for the Jewish community that was betrayed by Drake when he code switched on them too? Just doesn’t square at all.

He’s put out multiple songs in the last week talking about praying to God with his son before bed.

OP asked why Kendrick didn’t say anything about Palestine

I very misremembered his bars but this is directly related to the conversation at hand

Breadtube if it didn’t suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It’s open submission unless there’s something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it’s currently in.
