Yea I guess, I just cant get over people doing things now like this just to get eyes on it, even though they know its bogus. Almost like the new rappers who talk trash to get eyeballs and then get beat up or killed. Just off the strength of this one alone Id be like this dude cant get my money lol. Especially since he has some amazing ideas and has a nice following. Its cheapening his brand to me.
I could also be over critical at the moment.
I think being critical is what he may have want you to do. Leaving it up to your interpretation because it can create discussions and may you think on how it should be looked at.
Personally, seeing Malcolm and Martin playing dice and president Obama portraying a player like figure is kinda dope to me. Malcolm use to be a hustler before a minister. He wouldnt have been who he became without that particular past.
So being overly critical of art is ok, imo.
I don't think his intentions was for black folks to like the concept, but maybe more to talk about his work whether we like it or not.
I'd think I'd have more problems with it if that was all he done. At the same time, as long it was a conscious brother that provides context then I think I would be able to align with where he would be coming from.
