Anyone else schooled today by a black coworker about the halftime show?

Evidently, I am unable to appreciate the and I quote "lyrical genius" and "inside message" of the great orator of the 21st century, Kendrick Lamar. Why might you ask? Because I'm a cracker! This is proof positive why black folks continue to fall behind, choosing to idolize these fools and rely on them to speak on their behalf! Shame on the NFL for giving us a devisive halftime show.

I don’t need to be educated. I know what I watched sucked and was objectively terrible.

Was it divisive?


I legitimately went outside to cook some fried rice during the halftime show.

Just amazed that this is what was chosen to appeal to a global audience.

I'm sure we're among the 90% that didn't understand a word the degenerate was saying. So I really don't need to be 'educated' on nonsense, especially from someone who looks up to that kind of garbage.

Lyrical genius? Not even close
Inside message? Yes that went over most of our heads.

I’ll be honest after reading the hundreds of threads about how horrible the halftime show was, I went and watched it on YouTube. I was expecting some awful barely watchable garbage. It was generic mumble rap with some not so bad choreography. So I went and googled the symbolism everyone on Twitter was freaking out about.

Drake and Lamar got into some fight. Lamar insinuated Drake was a pedophile. He dropped a song alluding to it.
Drake sued him and his record label for releasing the song.
Lamar then drops another song directly calling Drake a pedophile with the titular line being “You’re trying to strike a chord, I bet it’s A minor”
The song wins 5 Grammies and then Lamar performs at the Halftime show.
Lamar also got Drake’s ex Serena Williams to dance on stage to the song.

Pretty awesome by Lamar if you ask me from a frick you standpoint.

The halftime show itself wasn’t anything special it was just generic mumble rap with hip hop choreography. The story behind it is interesting enough if you are into that culture.

People complaining about it are either too old or too stupid to understand why they shouldn’t be upset.

Mumble rap isn’t any worse than bro country or hickhop or the Foo Fighters.

All that said, it should’ve been Cash Money if they wanted to go that route.

It should’ve been a tribute to The Meters and Dr John if you wanted to showcase actually unique New Orleans music
