Lord Jamar's statements make perfect sense to me

Jamar is looking at hip hop as a cultural form of expression and art

Hip hop is now a globally consumed commodity, and the process of watching hip hop being broken down and transformed into a product that fits todays greater society is frustrating to a lot of pioneers of the music.

I think Jamar thinks that Maclemore being half a homo is out of line because he does not think people such as Maclemore should have the platform to direct which social cause this genre of music chooses to recognize/empower, for a variety of reasons

In reality, this is not hip hop, this is pop music. Maclemore is a pop artist, the end

Interview or not, sites like Vladtv only question other artists' "opinion." They then gas it up, by making it seem that those particular artist went at somebody. E.G. "Exclusive! Lord Jamar: Macklemore's pushing gay agenda"

At the end of the day, its a man's opinion.

Nah, man... WSHH may have some misleading videos, but Vladtv is 100% real every single thing.

Vladtv or die bruh. Your opinion is wrong.

Of course it's real, I'm not saying they fabricate anything, but at the same time, it's meant for entertainment to bring in viewers and remain relevant in the culture its all hip hop(politics, fashion, rap)

Just like the barbershop. WSHH is straight for them vine twerk vid's tho.

i think lord jamar from brand nubian bullied him out the rap game lol

and i dont know why dj vlad put the big ass D battery on lord jamars back fuck what he thinks about anything i dont know WHY dude thinks we give a fuck about his opinions on everything hip hop as of recently



after he heard that shit, saw the huge backlash created over this video, and realized what type of box he put himself in/what type of box hes in because of other people, i think he was like fuck this shit man i didnt start rapping to get stereotyped and treated like a ghetto black guy at a private country club...like if i cant make the type of music i wanna make without OG's in the game shitting on me for no reason forget rap ill go somewhere and make millions instead of this wack ass rap shit where no one respects me

i didnt like macklemore, that song he made about lean was the most corny shit i ever heard...i just dont like most of his music..but he seemed to have been down with the underground which was cool, like i saw a los rakas shirt on one of his videos that was dope....but yeah...i just didnt like dude...he wasnt that bad of a rapper but his image....and his song ideas...were not my cup of tea.

I mean you can characterize it as he is purposely pushing an agenda for popularities sake, or he genuinely wants to help. Either way his shtick serves both purposes, he's popular and more people are aware of gay issues. I think that's a good thing for everybody. It's your opinion if it's at the price of a pussification of rappers, or the "safe-ing" of the black man in the example of guys like Tyler Perry dressing up and dancing around. It's a valid point either way.

That being said I think Macklemore is fuckin wack. We live in a (popular) music world so devoid of talent and original ideas that as soon a someone comes along with a semblance of flow, or any idea remotely contradictory to the norm he's heralded as some kinda genius. Slap on top of it the guy is white and you have a golden ticket to sell a million records. His lyrics are pretty weak, he's preachy at times, he's what I would call soft. And this almost cop-out, or otherwise over attraction to beats I don't get, I'd rather hear a good MC rap over a metronome than some bullshit with a cool baseline.

The majority of civilized straight people support gay marriage. Don't make you gay.

Plus remember Seattle is a very left leaning city.

Ima post something longer about what Lord Jamar's been sayin but for now he did go over the line makin it personal against Yelawolf and Macklemore. Yelawolf, and Rittz too, both acknowledged that white rappers were guests at one point, and had no problem with that, but things have changed. Lord Jamar is a washed up New York nobody (yes i know he was an "OG" at some point, who care) who has said some out of line shit. Things have fucking changed, whether he likes it or not. and Like we gotta take what he says as the end all be all. fuck outta here


which is also funny because yelawolf then got at macklemore saying he stole some logo design

This baffles me, not that straight people support gay marriage, but that most people support institutionalized marriage at all. I personally don't care what the next person does or doesn't do between two consenting adults but I for one will never ever get married in the eyes of the law and therefore do not support the institution of marriage at all. IMO marriage is outdated. Don't get me wrong more power to anyone who wants that and congrats to those that make it work.

Well of course. Marriage was always about the oppression of women, man's right to own women etc.

But society kinda brainwashes us all that that is what your supposed to do. Get married, have a family, etc.

I didnt think just by the video that he was gay (i didnt watch it) i just saw whoever it was' comment about him and saw that video title and was tryna ask if hewas actually a homo or just people talkin shit

And btw ive never voted on the issue or anything but if i had to id vote to allow gay marrige, its a stupid fuckin issue and im tired of hearing about it... I dont get why any average straight man would feel the need to tell another man he cant get married, why the fuck would you care about some gay guys do? If ur concerned about what a couple of gay niggas do then yea theyre gay, but ur a faggot.

I just looked at Lord Jamar's twitter and I won't lie it made me laugh pretty hard to watch him get continuously trolled on baited over and over again.

Like I've fucked with Brand Nubian's music since I was around 10 or 11? Something like that. I don't care for Macklemore but whatever. Now what I really don't care for is whatever it was that Lord Jamar had to say about Macklemore, I didn't even watch the video. I can guess what it's all about from the title but dude is a 5%er what the fuck would someone expect him to say? lol

But here I am posting.

Message boards how do they work?
