I miss when Twitter wasn't a thing and we didn't have have to see what mediocre white failures had to say about football

“Trump won why isn’t everything catered towards meeeee” that’s really how it is, huh.
"MUSTAAAAAAAARD" - satanic
Actually existing child murder at industrial scale - not satanic
There is literally a multi million dollar military cult nationalist worship session in the front of the game. Why can't they just play fucking ball instead of these CULT like worship of DEATH?
Because the ball game is an explicitly fascist ritual designed to encourage social bonding around bloodsport
There are other ball games
Marn Grook, marn-grook or marngrook (also spelt Marn removed[1]) is the popular collective name for traditional Indigenous Australian football games played at gatherings and celebrations by sometimes more than 100 players.
These games featured punt kicking and catching a stuffed ball. They involved large numbers of players, and were played over an extremely large area. The game was subject to strict behavioural protocols: for instance all players had to be matched for size, gender and skin group relationship.
A winner could only be declared if one of the sides agreed that the other side had played better.CW racists being racist
However, to outside observers the game appeared to lack a team objective, having no real rules or scoring system.
Lmao they're going to start learning the hard way that Trump winning won't change shit
The number of Americans, conservative or liberal, who think whichever dude is in the White House dictates the shape of mass pop culture is pathetically high.
but we made the roseanne song and borgar commercial 
mumbling pagan satanic cultists
How the fuck did libs lose to this horseshit? This guy is an important propagandist for fascists, how does anyone take this seriously?
The Super Bowl wasn't rigged, nor was the election, but the Democratic party is very much rigged and tanked any chance of winning by their awful campaign last year.
Benny Johnson is REALLY good at telling rich, white, lead-poisoned boomers what they want to hear. Being good at that specific thing makes you an important part of any fascist coalition, especially given that groups wildly disproportionate power and wealth.

I'm honestly laughing at the lib response to some of these.
I'm really waiting for the shoe to drop in regards to kdots actual politics. White libs all think that they're the us in that song when in reality they're the they. White libs dont even really understand the axis on which they're the they in that song.
Like there was a reddit post where some chud called it the black nationalist half time show. Redditors knee jerk reacted to it. Libs really don't understand that kdot is an old school black nationalist.
I respect Kendrick as an artist, and tbh just for having those politics where he's at and making it work. But I'm not under any delusion that Kendrick sees me or anyone who isn't black as an ally.
It's really funny seeing busses full of fratboys sing it
If Kendrick Lamar had any remotely threatening views or the inclination to generate support for them, the FBI would have killed him decades ago.
Good music though

Someone’s mad Drake got called a diddler on live TV.
Benny Johnson the type of guy to say “uh guys, we have company.” when the cops show up.
So wait, what happened in the halftime show? I don't watch sports let alone sports only the US cares about.
Kendrick Lamar did his interpretation of a USA 'game' with some strong visual references to squid game, dancers in the form of a 
descending stairs as he rapped 'sit down... be humble', and he did bars from Not Like Us. It was very 'decline of the empire' vibes, and K seemed to be relishing it.
E: oh and Sam L Jackson played Uncle Sam who was like the game master or something, there was a weird line about deducting one life for a cultural foul or something, just to really drive home the USA = squid game vibes.
Sounds pretty cool tbh.
It's a shame most people's take from Squid Game is "Oooh what an exciting game of survival" And not the fact that the games themselves are dystopian
There's a Mr Beast knock off getting advertised on Prime Video currently
Fucking surreal
It is, I've seen that advertised and am just at awe of the sheer stupidity and audacity of the ruling class.

I think Jackson mispronounced that line and it should have been "a point deducted". Guy seemed a little bit out of it, he was off on timing a few times.
Performing as an actor where you have to hit theatrical beats, speak clearly and audibly and follow choreography is hard. Add "having to keep in specific time so as to sync up with a song" is hard as fuck. I can't begin to imagine how it would be as an old pensioner in the middle of a stadium filled with roaring crowds.
Look at him speaking over the trumpets and then acting surprised at the trumpets. Kendrick also pops up behind him. Seems like he was off tempo there.
Kendrick Lamar performed and among his songs was Not Like Us, a diss track specifically calling out Drake as a culture vulture, a pretender, and a pedophile. Not Like Us was the decisive final blow in the Kendrick-Drake beef last year and this year won five Grammys.
"Trump won, get over it" as if CHUDs weren't crying about the election being stole in 2020.
Or the Confederates losing 160 years ago.
"Satanic" is when Black people. They called Rihanna satanic and she sings dance pop

people who didn't like the halftime show really telling on themselves
TBF it was lacking in the theatrical stage effects elements, and personally I find Kendrick’s flow to be a bit sing-songy. But yeah, all these “I didn’t like the halftime show for unspecified reasons” takes are sus.
if you can specify a reason other than "idk it's bad" that's enough for me!
They're so hungry to start saying slurs in public again.
I don't watch American Football so I looked up what it was all about, and got this:
Lmao, no surprise the Daily Mail is one of the only ones with a negative headline like this. It really is a good racism test lmao.
What happened in the halftime show? It was Kendrick Lamar, right?
The audio mixing on TV was legitimately pretty bad. If I didn't know the songs, I would have no idea what he's even saying.

Humble has a billion views on YouTube. That's like a tip of the iceberg in terms of his popularity before it comes to industry accolades of which both are plentiful. Pulitzer Prize winner Kendrick Lamar's lyrics are touted as some of the most complex and layered that hip hop has to offer. For the uninitiated I would point to Euphoria where he goes "I love em to death and in 8 bars I'll explain" and 8 bars later he says "If not I'm YMW Melly." YMW Melly (in)famously rapped Murder on My Mind where he recounts murdering his friend with gun violence before turning himself in for alleged double homicide the next year. Kendrick's lyrics are famously filled with moments that make you grin if you get the reference and impress the careful listener with plays on words and thoughtful math.
Mumble rap is criticized for its lack of depth (and lack of "talent") which is exemplified with songs like Desiigner's Panda. The comparison of Kendrick to mumble rap is like comparing Ice Ice Baby to Under Pressure because the first couple seconds are the same. Maybe you could make a tasteful joke, but if you really doubled down on it you'd rightfully be called a weirdo.
Talentless, of course, is an absurd insult when not only the rap community but countless other community celebrates his music sun up to sun down. You could fill a garbage dump with all the bandwidth dedicated to people lip syncing his songs in every garbage dump that hosts videos. Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe, Humble, Swimming Pools, Money Trees, m.a.a.d City all found mass appeal. Special mention to Duckworth whose ending can be interpolated into the sickest fancam for any rivalry: "you take two strangers and put them in random predicaments. Give them a soul so they can make their own choices and live with it...".
This is all, of course (with the exception of Euphoria), at least 5 years ago. Kendrick has truly taken over the airwaves with his feud with Drake. Not Like Us broke Spotify records, hit US Billboard Hot 100's #1 spot, and one time got a speech impaired infant to finally say the phrase "they not like us." His latest album, GNX, was US Billboard 200's #1 spot which was his fifth time releasing an album that hit #1. And, once again, people love shouting "MUSTAAAAARD!"
I can't speak to his paganism, satanism, or his cult (all the same thing or is he practicing multiple religions?) which he does not seem to ever mention. But he is sober. "He was raised secular, although he occasionally attended church services and was taught the Bible by his grandmother.[13] He felt "spiritually unsatisfied" as a child due to the "empty" and "one-sided" nature of the sermons.[14]"
So, in conclusion, the idea that people don't like Kendrick's music, his music lacks depth, his music lacks meaning, his music lacks cultural impact, his music is somehow not memorable, or that his music is not the result of immense talent suggest an ignorance not just of hip hop, but even a cursory understanding of how pop culture has developed in the last decade (who am I kidding? It's probably racism).
P.S. In 2009 Jay-Z joked about how his songs are so cool that he could "Get this to a blood, let a crip walk on it." Last summer Kendrick actually got members of the two gangs on stage together.
I think you laid out perfectly why Kendrick is so huge, and such a good artist, that even people like me, with not much more than a passing interest in hip hop really like his stuff, and can recognize the musicality and talent.
And the saddest part is that the author of the tweet will not hear any of these arguments because "black man rapping on stage = talentless". Their racism comes before any other aesthetic judgment.

This is next level reactionary idiocy, wow
God if Football(the real sport) had something like a halftime show people would boo the shit outta of it ,that being said
American sports suck so this is the opposite hahha ,America has good music sometimes
what did Kendrick preform ?
A whole bunch of different songs, but only snippets from each, the halftime show is really short. Also, some cool stuff happened at the show. One of the performers unfurled two flags they had secretly brought with them.
they were arrested afterwards, fucking fascist ass country

They’re going to have a halftime show at the CL final performed by Linkin Park. Probably going to be a halftime show for the next WC final too.
My honest reaction:

This is the guy with the weird ass hooters tweet right?
Trump won! That means we are all only allowed to listen to Fleetwood Mac and other REAL musicians. No more of this DEI rap “music” that the blue hairs are forcing us to like.
Didn't watch. Still an unhinged response
Drake sure has some interesting fans
Just finished watching it since I accidentally slept through most of the game and it was absolutely fucking awesome, these losers have terrible taste like usual
Kendrick also said the revolution will be televised, this is the right time but picked the wrong guy.
With Trump watching from the stands.
Although I doubt that he liked Kamala.
Although I doubt that he liked Kamala.
I like Kendrick as much as the next guy but come on, he has said nothing about Palestine. Even JPEGMAFIA was telling people to vote blue, I doubt Kendrick would be any different if he did explicitly talk about electoral politics.
Sure some artists are still vote-pilled; but if Kendrick is as educated as it seems, he can certainly tell that his fans don't like Kamala, or the government, or the United States for that matter. And it would be considered selling out. But look at the few artists that have taken a non-aligned stance, Chapelle Roan, and how it worked out. She kept her idealism and made very important points, but the libs became rabid and even accused her of racism for mispronouncing Kamala's name. All because she refused to play at the white house (no great honor, given it's to prop up a moribund and genocidal administration) and refused to endorse her, though she voted for her.
I think you might harbor too high of an opinion for the hip hop community. Even Kendrick's fans, which are generally better given the radical material in his music, is probably still way to his right because of how white and affluent it is.
