    Ah; I thought you were approaching and conversing in good faith. My mistake.

    If you’re unfamiliar with the tone policing of “not following proper decorum” (and that’s exactly what “he doesn’t need to be shouting his name on every song” is; it’s not a debate about whether he can: it’s an assertion that that’s not an appropriate way to behave for the setting), then you should probably familiarize yourself.

    But, as a person with lived racial experience, I am very much not reaching.

      Ah yes, race-baiting is so good faith.

      Fuck off with that holier-than-thou bullshit.

      Go back, re-read the discussion, and do better.

        You’re talking about a black art form, with DJ Khaled doing what every hypeman in the history of the genre has done since its inception; there is no context where saying he’s being inappropriate in what he’s doing is not racial.

        I promise you, your appeals to “race-baiting” (of all things) as a justification of what’s going on are not putting you on the political side of the spectrum you usually associate yourself with.

        I doubt this will be sufficient to not sound like anything I’ve said before but I sincerely and genuinely believe you lack context which you aren’t willing to hear.

          of what’s going on

          Which, for perspective, what’s “going on” in this context is one comment that you’ve decided twist and laserfocus on so you can grandstand.

          I beg you, re-read the thread and see where you got lost.
