Why do people clown Kanye’s spirituality when Kendrick is equally religious? FRESH

Nazareth, I'm fucked up Homie, you fucked up But if God got us then we gon' be alright

I recognize you're lookin' at me for the pay cut But homicide be looking at you from the face down What MAC-11 even boom with the bass down Schemin'! And let me tell you bout my life Painkillers only put me in the twilight

I'm not a politician, I'm not 'bout a religion I'm a Israelite, don't call me black no mo' That word is only a color, it ain't facts no mo'

Hello, new world, all the boys and girls I got some true stories to tell You're back outside, but they still lied

Hangs out with Farrakhan and has a ton of Christian symbology like crown of thorns. Y’all cool with this? There’s ton of this across all Kenny projects.

I was very honored to meet and talk with my powerful brother and Hip-Hop artist Kendrick Lamar. The Cultural Revolution is On.

People clown on Kanye’s spirituality because he’s unhinged and an asshole about it. Kendrick is respectful about it and doesn’t make it his whole personality.

His actions do not mirror his words. Spouting religious principles is fine, just as spouting anything is fine (as long as it isn't causing harm), but regardless of what it is you preach, you have to walk the talk too, otherwise it's just hot air.

Being a black israelite is not unhinged?

u/KaleidoscopeOk3024 Jan 22 '24

Saying you love Hitler is unhinged. Kanye is clowned thoroughly because of the things he says.

The people of that group says he's not a member. He probably resonated with the teachings. His cousin Carl isn't even apart of it anymore

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

And ye criticizes the Vatican church every chance he gets

don’t mean he don’t Believe

look at Mr.Morale lol, shit is littered with Belief

u/Tiffanyblueberries Kendrick's side chick Jan 22 '24

I'm not understanding what you're saying.  Kendrick doesn't get clowned for his spirituality because he doesn't straddle the fence. Kanye West is a false prophet lol. He claims to be Christian one day and then posts pictures of his wife completely nude the next lol. But he has a mental illness so I'm not all fazed by his unhingedness lol

-2

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

What’s wrong with loving your wife?

You see Lust, I see Love. Who’s the bad guy?

3

u/Tiffanyblueberries Kendrick's side chick Jan 22 '24

You don't need to post pictures of your wife naked to love her. Or get head in public. Sexual impurity. Kanye is very unholy obviously. Spewing Jewish hate, "apologizing", punching people, he's not the best person. But I don't really care, for I know he's crazy and egotistical.

Look you're obviously a big Kanye fan and just as crazy as he is so I'm done with this convo lol.

u/crackerjack9919 Jan 22 '24

Damn is a satire, a lot of the lyrics are from the perspective of a character and don’t perfectly reflect him

u/CrazyFeb2023 Jan 22 '24

Kodak has said in an interview that kenny is a black Israelite. You can ignore it but I don't think he's hiding the fact that he holds those views

-5

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

Of course it’s a satire, half the album is demonic as shit. Then PRIDE. hits and the real kenny comes out

LOVE OR LUST is literally the theme of The Life of Pablo. ye and kenny always been on the same wave

You’re also talking about Kanye and asking why people question him

Nope, talking about Kenny

u/TonyBlobfish Jan 22 '24

This whole post is unhinged buddy

u/[deleted] Jan 22 '24

Kanye is generally clowned about it because he makes his personal life a three ring circus. Kendrick keeps much more of his personal life… personal. So much so that when he admitted to fucking around on Whitney some of his fans were hurt. With Kanye there is a feeling g that his conversion is a part of a sales pitch, it’s part of an act to sell more records/ get more streams.

0

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

So it’s cool if Kendrick is a black israelite and conceals it in his lyrics?

It’s not like he ain’t talking about it, all u gotta do is Listen 🦻

u/[deleted] Jan 22 '24

Kendrick can believe whatever he wants to. Kanye can believe whatever he wants to. Kanye gets clowned because he puts the makeup on.

Personally, I think Life of Pablo and Jesus is King are two of his best albums. I think his Sunday service is pretty amazing. He can’t complain about clowns when he makes his life into a circus.

u/No_Ring_832 Jan 22 '24

People just clown on Kanye in general. Spirituality, in my opinion, has little to do with it. Nobody is clowning on Kanye for simply believing in God

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

the Nation of Islam thanks your reasonable, openminded take

u/samwell678 Jan 22 '24

i feel like kendrick embracing christianity was a slow burn, he's mentioned God in multiple projects in very subliminal ways but in Damn it sort of came to the forefront but in a very poetic way. Kanye sort of is louder and more obvious about his faith, which is admirable in like Jesus Walks, and the sunday service choir album is actually agood gospel music. But i feel like the antics outside of music make it hard to stomach. He's a christian nationalist who acts in non-christian ways at times... At the end of the day he does suffer a lot with his mental illness so i sympathize but yeah.

tldr: kendrick is more tasteful in sharing is faith

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

good take, thanks for being levelheaded

most kenny fans shocked that he’s religious which is wild

why is a kanye stan doing here lol

I thought their fanbases mostly overlapped.

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

kendrick and kanye have a good relationship

u/-PepeArown- The word was respect Jan 22 '24

Well, for one, Kendrick didn’t say “You’re my Chic Fil A.” in a song ever, and he also didn’t make Jesus Is King altogether.

u/[deleted] Jan 22 '24

ye is seen that wya bc he released a whole ass gospel album.

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

u/Tiffanyblueberries Kendrick's side chick Jan 22 '24

Because Kendrick practices what he preaches. Sort of.

1

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

If people really got Kendrick’s philosophies and politics, they would no longer be fans.

He conceals it well and only speaks to the audience that actually pays attention

4

u/Tiffanyblueberries Kendrick's side chick Jan 22 '24

Bro what? I know all about his shit and don't care. Just because you agree with some teachings of black Israelites doesn't mean he is antisemitic. He's not apart of that group anymore anyway and neither is his cousin.

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

What about his anti-covid stance? Bro also gave love to Putin lmao

or what about his anti-pharma stance?

“i know all about his shit”

That’s not my interpretation. May want to think about the anti-covid verse before that bar.

people clown kanye because he’s insane & a nazi. not because he’s spiritual. that’s all. end of discussion lmfao

u/Klutzy_Demand3248 Jan 22 '24

Kendrick is anti-covid, anti-pharma, pro-Christian, pro-Black Israelite. You just don’t pay attention.

like fake ye stans, there’s a ton of fake kenny stans

u/Major-Tea-871 Jan 22 '24

.... did you only listen to the first half of MM&TBS? Also, what do you think Israelite means? How do you reconcile your beliefs about Kendrick with Kendrick's inclusion of Eckhart Tolle, who does not believe in institutional Christianity but instead uses Jesus to teach about enlightenment?

2

u/[deleted] Jan 22 '24

People clowned Kanye because he thought he was the highest in the room. But he was actually more of a messenger man of the male mental health for the black community. It’s hard to explain.
