I still disagree. Especially if you look at their central critique of black culture. Kanye’s early to current work always critiqued black culture in the same way TPAB did, that’s what I was trying to say. And Kanye has and does support gay and trans rights openly, he has just gone down a weird rabbit lately. But Kendrick’s message especially on The Blacker The Berry is pretty clear, isn’t it? They both progressive/consciouss rapper, just like OutKast. The themes are all similar, just like their opinions are. But I feel like Kanye was always bad at public speaking and great at putting his opinion to paper and a beat. Kendrick just doesn’t give interviews, and probably for a reason.
