Jidenna has been criticised and labelled a fool by critics after comparing XXXTentacion, the slain rapper who assaulted several women and a gay man, to the human rights activist Malcolm X.
For those who are so woke that their compassion is asleep, remember this…if Malcolm X was killed at the age of 20, he would have died an abuser, a thief, an addict, and a narrow-minded depressed & violent criminal. So, I believe in change for the young.

His remarks sparked disappointment from those familiar with the late rapper’s allegedly abusive ways and his endorsement of Dylan Roof, the white supremacist who murdered innocent African-Americans as they worshipped in church.
Y’all music industry niggas never even piped up when his girlfriend was getting beat or when his fans harassed her so much she had to leave her job or when he beat a gay man nearly to death just for starring at him but now we’re supposed to believe he’s Malcolm x reincarnated

I KNEW JIDENNA WAS NOT TO BE TRUSTED.

.@Jidenna is comparing a rich 20-year-old musician who is unrepentant and abusive to women, who vocally rejected feminism and the MeToo movement….to Detroit Redd AKA Malcolm Little
Malcolm at 20 was robbing rich white folks and SURVIVING in Boston.

XXXTentacion cosigned and glorified Dylan Roof. Good riddance

Maybe y'all will get it now. Dylan Roof is the white kid who shot up a church full of black people and XXXTentacion was cheering him on. Are y'all really caping for this nonsense? https://t.co/Yi76cVDRR0

@xxxtentacion has been pronounced dead after a gunshot wound. Wonder if it was because he hung a small white boy in one of his music videos or his odd love for Dylan Roof, a mass murderer?

That’s his opinion but he tried it..
Dumb. His comment is disrespectful to Malcolm in multiple ways. And by this logic, I can take any trash individual and argue for their honor based on them being too young or their life being too short. Everybody has a story. It’s not an excuse. We will never know who he could’ve been, no. But we do know for sure, who he was. And I’m not giving out respect based on potential. RIP to XXXTentacion nonetheless.
You are right
TGJ HAS ALWAYS HAD IT OUT FOR XXX AND NEVER POSTED HIS MUSIC OR ACHIEVEMENTS BUT ALWAYS HIS DRAMA OR HIS FUEDS OR MUGSHOTS AND CHARGES AND IT SEEMS LIKE IT WAS OVER THE GAY MAN FIGHT AND MORE AND MORE TGJ IS NOTHING MORE THAN A GOSSIP BLOG INSTEAD OF A MUSIC SITE ANYMORE AND I MISS WHEN IT WAS ABOUT MUSIC AND NOT WENDY WILLIAMS LEFTOVERS.
And why should they? This blog is run by gays, so why the hell should they promote this openly homophobic trashbag?
HE WAS NEVER HOMOPHOBIC AND IF THEY FEEL LIKE THAT THEN LEAVE HIM OFF THE BLOG ALTOGETHER.
Um, attacking a gay man is not homophobic? I think you need to pick up a dictionary.
A GAY MAN WHO TRIED TO R*** HIM IN JAIL
Gays are not above beat downs though. We are all humans and we all suffer the consequences of our actions. If a gay man does you wrong he is not above suffering repercussions just because he is gay.

#CHANGETHELAWS Now is the best opportunity ever for Congress to change the ridiculous and obsolete laws on immigration. Get it done, always keeping in mind that we must have strong border security.
S****** Stank Blonde (aka Assmine) go away and stop trying to cyber bully me! You are a perfect example of a gay man that deserves a proper beatdown for constantly attacking black women. I’m talking the kind of beat down where your face is disfigured and you are missing lots of teeth with only one eye working left. Go away! Nobody likes you!
He supported Dylan Roof. That should be enough for his idiot supporters to see that he was trash.
Trash does not deserve media promotion. All promotion (good or bad) helps celebrity popularity. Trash should be given no attention and lose their celebrity the old fashioned way (no promotion and no money).
@realDonaldTrump
Democrats are the problem. They don’t care about crime and want illegal immigrants, no matter how bad they may be, to pour into and infest our Country, like MS-13. They can’t win on their terrible policies, so they view them as potential voters!
Stop stalking my comments S****** Stank Blonde and trying to cyber bully me! Go away! Nobody likes you!
I think people are so quick to respond instead of reading to understand that they missed the message. He didn’t speak on R. Kelly or any of those other artists because that was not the topic at hand but making a point that our society condones misogyny and r*** culture and then attack people for behaving accordingly. With a president in office that promotes war, killing, constant disrespect of women and children it’s ok to do these things to some people. He mainly was stating that growth comes when a person realizes that their actions affect more than just the people around them but the world at large. Malcolm X had to go to jail not saying jail is a reason people should change but in his case. being in jail led him to realize that he had a higher calling and maybe this particular incident might wake up the rest of these artists make them more aware of those choices and how they affect society.
1. To the person who said this site is run by gays: do you know the site’s owners personally? 2. This disturbed young man lived by the sword he died by. I’m sorry, he was a repulsive human being who put a hot pitchfork on one of his victim’s vaginas. That’s how sick he was.
They have videos, e.g. a series. Do you even follow them? It‘s not even a secret or an attack towards them.
NEVER WAS THAT FOUNDED TO BE TRUE. HE NEVER PUT AN OBJECT IN ANYONE. THAT IS THE PART YOU NEVER SEE OR HEAR. GOSSIPING JUST LIKE A QUEEN. ALL RUMORS.
You haven’t seen the official police report? It’s a fact. Not a random rumour.
@NeuRoses 45. A police report is a statement of what the officer personally witnessed or was told. Just because an officer takes a statement doesn’t make it true. More importantly, no police report with the allegation of a hot pitchfork has been seen. The pitchfork story was spread by a non-credible news source claiming to have the details of the victim’s deposition.
Actually it appears Jidenna was taken out of context. He is saying that Malcolm X was different from Malcolm Little.
Why do we make it so difficult to understand each other? What he’s saying is we should be mindful of a young person’s potential to mature into something better, and that we should use that mindfulness to encourage our youth to make better choices. We can’t turn our backs and have the mentality, ‘You’re no good. You’re gonna be just like your daddy,’ and then be upset when our young men go out and destroy our communities. We should hold them accountable when they do wrong, definitely, but we too have to be accountable and do our part to push our young people to change. XXXTentacion, as far as we know, had not engaged in serious criminal activity following his release from house arrest earlier this year. He had potential to do better is all Jidenna is saying.
And I thought I liked Jiddena music but I guess it’s all smoke & mirrors!!
I mean these people have a point! Like Was dude all that great really tho?!
