Now this "woke" Kanye I like.
More of this if you're gonna be doing music again, Kanye.
Also, shout out for the house vibezzzzzz.

13391597, bout to re-evaluate my take on Wash Us In The Blood.
Posted by PROMO, Wed Jul-01-20 11:44 AM
maybe I wrote it off too carelessly.

"Get ready....for your blessing....."
"Bury me by my Grand-Grand and when you can come follow me"

13391626, only caveat is you never know how old a song is when we hear it.

13391628, true...very true... that was a question in the back of my mind..BUT.....
Posted by FLUIDJ, Wed Jul-01-20 12:55 PM
the word shit was "censored" can't tell if it was self censored or not...
and he did have some of that church talk going....
"Get ready....for your blessing....."
"Bury me by my Grand-Grand and when you can come follow me"

13391632, He rapped about the SB halftime criticism for rappers
Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Jul-01-20 01:25 PM
So that lets us know it was within the last year.
Unless you are just talking production.

13391639, right. a year ago Kanye was still MAGA'ing though.
Posted by PROMO, Wed Jul-01-20 01:36 PM
and he might still be, we don't know.
i hope he's smarten'd up (Nas), and even if he has it's still fair to take him to task for his past actions.
i mean, even the Wash Us In The Blood video APPEARS to be speaking on police brutality, yet he was backing our Cheeto In Charge who is all for police brutality.
i just hope this "change" is real and lasting. not sure i'll still ever understand how he could say "George Bush doesn't care about black people" on live network TV then do all this MAGA shit.
all that said, the verse is obviously FAIRLY recent, at minimum.

13391652, Man.. trying to tell y’all these dude has no morals
Posted by legsdiamond, Wed Jul-01-20 02:26 PM
Dude will hop on any bandwagon that’s poppin’
He’s going to ride with us now because he can sense Trump losing and the momentum is with BLM. So now yeah out in the streets protesting and donating money to Floyd’s kids education.
He’s not crazy.. he’s calculated and shallow.
Signed by Dame Dash.. and then left the club with Hov.
Same reason he got the most popular woman in the world as his wife.
|
13391656, you're probably right.
Posted by PROMO, Wed Jul-01-20 02:31 PM
i'm all for a redemption story though.
|
13391800, he's definitely right
Posted by infin8, Thu Jul-02-20 10:58 AM
shxt is pro wrestling at this point and this is just part of his character arc. *shrug*
now if you'll excuse me, I'ma go listen to Roc Marciano pretend to be a pimp.
#LikeWhatYouLike LOL

13391795, I aint falling for the woke shit. He just doing it cause the bible study rap didn't work
Posted by Heinz, Thu Jul-02-20 10:27 AM
He thought it would get him back from the whole slavery quote. Now he's being woke again for the same reasons. The song is dope tho. But I ain't falling for the fake woke shit.

13391804, Did you fall for the MAGA/slavery shit?
Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Jul-02-20 11:23 AM
Not sure why people think that was legit but this is fake.
I’ve always thought dude was trolling from jump to get in front of as many cameras as possible.
|
13391889, Yes that was an actual thought of his.

13391810, Dope song.
Posted by EAS, Thu Jul-02-20 11:47 AM
Kanye is like Lauryn Hill at this point, he is never coming back. Even if it looks he's on the road to recovery....it's not happening.
Don't care if the MAGA thing is calculated or not. No one who truly rides for their people would do or have done that. Potential dollar signs will always 'trump' his next move. You can never trust those who play both sides of the fence.
|
13391815, I’m more concerned with him coming back with a good album
Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Jul-02-20 11:59 AM
I think it’s a mistake to expect an artist to ride for his/her people.
A few do but it’s rare. Most artist just wanted to get famous and will do whatever they can to stay relevant.
Ye trashed W and we gave him the crown over it. We ignored a lot of am warning signs that dude was an attention whore.

13391934, Might be song of the summer, need more memorable lines perhaps
Posted by Bambino Grande, Fri Jul-03-20 08:16 AM
but the hook and the beat is up there, even though it sounds like a I Love It / Fade / afrobeat era Drake - mashup
