as someone who's not really into hiphop/rap that much, Kendrick has some fucking bangers, and that show was hype af.
only watched it because conservatives are struggling to shit talk it without outright saying "I don't want to see [black people] during an NFL game"... turns out it was lit. there's a reason they can't really say anything about it without being just straight up racist: "that's not music" - yes it very clearly is & "he's mumbling" - no he definitely isn't and his vocals were super clear to understand to the point that I was surprised how clear it was with all the physicality involved. nah they just wanna say "I don't speak black".
Man I had a hard time understanding his vocals but that might have just been the sound mixing on the broadcast. Heard that it was clearer on YouTube or other places to watch just the performance by itself. Probably easier to make out in the stands, no idea though.
If I listened real hard I caught some of it but that's probably also because my ears are not tuned well for a lot of hip hop just in general I have a hard time picking up lyrics for a lot of rap artists.
Still, you're spot on with the racism perspective - honestly it's just people whining it's not "their" kind of music. Ok, well, taste is subjective and I thought it was a banging show even if I didn't clearly hear everything he said. Conservatives just want to be racist but pretend they're not racist. When I hear someone say, "I'm not racist," 95% of the time it's because they're racist and said or did some racist shit.
