    He was just quoting the lyrics from a rap song. No big deal.

    No.

    If he posted that then there would be trouble.

    He posted

    We been getting that Jewish money, Everything is Kosher.

    That is nothing like what you posted. He is just saying he is getting his pound of flesh. Everything is cool.

    Those are actual lyrics? What radio station plays them and do the rest of the listening audience think they are cool expressions?

    Good God, the country has gone down hill rapidly under Trump.

    Some rap is good, some is bad. I thought everyone knew that.

    e.g. Good rap (Idris Elba) -

    You're going to pretend that a guy who is concerned about racism and prejudice in this society doesn't know that those lyrics are offensive? Really?

    I don't really give a shit what Lebron thinks or posts. The issue is that everyone else has to be perfect all the time. What did Megyn Kelly do? Say she doesn't see why black face or black makeup is bad if it is a positive portrayal of a hero?


    FIRE HER NOW!!!!!!

    Rap is immune to the SJW criticism for some reason.

    Really it's not just rap, it's music in general. I find it very strange that there is so much racism, sexism, hatred, etc spewed in our music and it's almost never called out. It's like music is the one place where all of that is ok, it's creative artistic expression! As long as I'm singing about how much I hate people it's ok... Again it's way beyond just rap music it's in just about every genre.

    Also I kind of fear for Lebron. I have a lot of respect for him and what he's done and tried to do in his communities. I hope LA, the attention, the I have to have a statement about everything mentality doesn't hurt him in the long run. There's wisdom in just not opening your mouth at times.
