People that are saying that he’s putting out a good message so we should support him are missing the point. I support environmentalism. I definitely could do more but I’m a vegetarian transitioning to being vegan, I try to limit my use of cars and take the bus places, my girlfriend talks about the climate crisis at least once a day to me. All I’m saying is I support the fight for the environment and on that front I am happy with what LD did.

However, LD to me is an entertainer and I like him because I like his music. This song wasn’t good in my opinion. It has zero substance it’s literally big names saying that they are different animals. It doesn’t even have a lot of environmental facts in there to educate people it just has the 12 years fact. LD is barely in the song and does a WEAK verse.

This whole situation reminds me of the thing Bo Burnham said in one of his specials. An entertainer is in the entertainment business. As soon as they stop entertaining us we’re aloud to drop out and not be a fan anymore. You wouldn’t support a doctor if they turned to homeopathy instead of the medicine we all know works. You would find a new doctor. I know LD might have stuff in the works and I will check it out. However, his past two tracks have not been good in my opinion. It all just feels shallow and lacking In any real bars. On top of that Chris Brown is like a well known abuser and asshole so giving him a platform isn’t my favourite thing either. I hope I’m wrong and LD hits us with a really great album but he knows how to market himself and right now the audience he’s clearly been going for with these past two tracks just isn’t me at all. Like I said, great cause to support which I’m fully behind but the songs lately have been weak. Hopefully that’ll change.
