Why make a song about this though? Very unnecessary. And there’s nothing wrong with celebs not being vocal, I’d rather they shut up unless they have something truly thoughtful and valuable to say. But there is something... strange I guess... about how It’s easy for people like him and Kendrick to make bold music about the black experience and sell it for profit, but they can’t or don’t want to boldly put themselves out there in times like this. Or maybe they feel more comfortable expressing themselves artistically?? Idk. I see both sides I guess. But clearly, this is what sets Jay Z apart. There is actual practice behind his preaching.
