You know, it's easy to be a part of a mob throwing stones at an individual who's behavior/actions/opinions you don't agree with. It really doesn't take much to pick up a rock & throw it. Only thing you really gotta put effort & concentration into is hitting your target. Now, when it comes to thinking about WHY you're so opposed to what's being said before picking up the rock, that's a different story. Especially when the target has had more than their fair share of critics before ( this writer included ). Mob mentality comes into the picture & takes over without a second thought. Nicki Minaj. My only problem with her song "Lookin' Ass Nigga" is the historical appropriation of one of Black Culture's most revered figures. I really have a problem with any rapper who name-drop people from history without knowing who they are & what they contributed. Where's the context? Don't use it for entertainment ...
