Why you think the niggas who didn't like it didnt understand it? Lmao why can't it just be that they expected a more hype performance with a different set list?

He chose not to play the hits and thats cool but don't be mad when niggas choose to say that shit was butt cause It's their opinion.

People over analyzing the shit and being mad weird with it.


I understand that it’s art and it’s meant to be interpreted however you interpret it but god damn lol. You’d think he was rapping like Lupe by the way people be breaking shit down.

Ok so that's overkill to me and I think that's unnecessary so we agree here

I think it was fitting for BHM under Trump's presidency. Very politically charged. Very black.. Very necessary, you don't even need to know what was going on to know it was satirical
. Shit was bold and dope imo. First sitting president at the Superbowl and he got to see a bunch of niggaz making a mockery of America.

I'm gonna be honest,

This comes off as more symbolism that ultimately doesn't change anything. This is Democrats kneeling in Congress.

In 2025, I think any energy wasted at throwing symbolism in Trump or America's face is wasted energy. What do we expect the opposition to do differently with more symbolism?

Why are we still entertaining them at all? We know who they are and what they are about.
 
Snoop Dogg is doing stop the hate commercials while also endorsing Trump. Serena crip walking at the halftime show as some sort of get back at Drake.

On one hand, we're being told that there are hidden messages in Kendrick's performance but why are they hidden? It's the halftime show at the Super Bowl. Why get on that platform and be shy?

Then on the other hand we're being told that there's a specific message being sent but it appears that the messages are "mixed"

Nothing has to be changed. It's already done.

Trump and white America would have loved to have a Jelly roll half time show.

They got Kendrick. And the whole country talking about the importance of a rap performance.


Mission accomplished.

Mission Accomplished?

What was the mission? To get white America to talk about the importance of rap? How is that a message that even needs to be sent right now?

I'm confused. This is like the NBA putting the equality nicknames on the back of their jerseys. Is that the message that we were asking for?

Who was clamoring for white America to be reintroduced to rap music on the biggest stage? Who is this even a priority for?

This is cringy as fuck.

Even if you put all of the Serena, Drake, Kendrick shit aside, the Crip walking being at the center of this, and Snoop Dogg who just performed for Trump..............

What are we really doing here?

I think you should apply this thought process to why and how Crip have become a legitimate business.

Serena ain’t got shit to do with that as her doing it has always been seen as an act of resistance at the time.

You are displaying political amnesia right now.

That woman been thru hell and back as a black woman in tennis. Damn right she should C-Walk on a grand stage.

Niggas fuck w Jelly Roll too much for the MAGAs to embrace him
 
The argument that people are over analyzing a performance is wild to me. The performance is art, art is subjective...it might not mean anything to you but saying shit like "it's not that serious" when other people have an opinion is sitting in the back trying to be a clown interrupting the class energy. You not feeling it, fine. It costs you nothing, pay it no mind...

This makes me believe that there were niggas on the plantation going "Why yall keep singing wade in the water? Sing some up beat shit".

Bruh every rapper in existence would love to have a performance talked about the way this one was.

You think if Pac was alive he would wanna do safe hits, or have the whole nation talking and taking sides.

Yes. Kendrick wanted the entire country debating the importance of his performance.

Dude is a rapper. And this gonna be the most controversial half time show since Janet titty. And that was an "accident"

All this was deliberate. You gotta respect a rapper kicking up this much dust over a performance.

I think niggas are over the dust kicking is what I'm saying and that's no disrespect to Kendrick as a rapper. I just think niggas are fed up with the "Good Trouble" and symbolism.
