"Asked about the high-profile killings of African-Americans by police in 2014, from Ferguson, Mo., to Staten Island, he says......"
the context is completely different. that being said i have no issues with what he said but felt it was an awkward way to answer the question. yes niggas in the hood is fucked up but police brutality and the police state and school to prison pipeline is a part of why niggas is fucked up and i feel like kendrick used the question to touch on something that didn't really make sense given the question.
