OUT NOW Kendrick Lamar - GNX

Added to Calendar: 11-22-24

I remember a time when you just had your album or an officially released single on charts

Having every single song chart because of streaming is something I'll never understand
 
I get feeling some type of way about not being in the video, but the manner in which he bitching about it is the worst kind of clout chase

“I’m not mad and tbh I couldn’t care less…”

Literally one sentence later…

“I’m heart broken and it’s breaking me down…”


Good god… get a grip nigga

I always wonder how a person is the innovator of something but doesn't benefit from it. Sometimes its bad luck, but sometimes it's that person. Judging by how he's handling this situation, it might be the latter.

There are ways to get your coins but it definitely seems like you gotta be persistent af

I remember fortnite was sued for taking someone's dance and putting it in their game without so much as an acknowledgement of the creator. They later settled for an amount

Yeah. This dude seems to be mad that people he put onto the dance are making more off of it than him, but maybe they've just been grinding more.

We been saying squabble/squab and doing that same hand motion to signify the squabble/fight since the 90’s, out here… so even him saying he “created” that dance is kinda ehhh…


Side note: I wonder if EA cut him a check, because that squabble up dance is in their football games


Edit: after checking his IG, him crying about this look even crazier now lol. This shit has basically been his identity for the past year.

Kendrick ain’t make this shit viral, this shit been viral since like January

That's kinda his point. He didn't single out Kendrick.

I think at the end of the day, he doesn't understand how this shit works. You throw some shit online or on social media, you don't really own it anymore. If you want to capitalize off of it, it's up to you to make sure that you leading the wave from the start. If you put it out there, and then it blows up without you, you can't really come back after the fact and expect to reap the benefits. It's not set up like that. They better find a way to start copyrighting these social media dances.

It hasn’t blown up without him tho. He’s been up for a minute.

Like I said, I get not being in the video making him feel a way. That’s a check he missed. I get him wanting to be paid by these video game companies (he has, by the way) because they are selling a product with his “IP” in it. I get wanting your credit, this man been on ESPN, behind this shit because multiple NFL players originating from SoCal have been doing his dance.

EVERYBODY who SHOULD know he started this dance, pretty much knows by now. The rest of us who didn’t know, by this point… it’s because we don’t care who made up the latest viral dance.

Calling out those dancers as “fake friends” who betrayed him for doing his LA dance, in an LA themed music video, by the biggest LA rapper is crazy work.

This was a good look. Nobody buys music videos, it’s for promotion. And now he has a literal theme song for his dance, that’s actually good…because the one they were using before is trash tbh

I agree with you. I think him putting out that post is probably an example of why he's not asked to appear more. People that do shit like that don't really endear themselves to the kinds of people that can provide opportunities.
