  • Eminem’s “Not Afraid” Song Review

    Eminem’s “Not Afraid” Song Review

    This song is a very uplifting song. It invokes a real sense of nostalgia and hope. It is energetic and emotional.

    The lyrics of the song are very powerful. You can feel the raw emotion in the song.

    I highly recommend giving the song a listen.

  • Kanye

    Kanye

    Fucking Nazis.

    What’s happening to Kanye’s so sad.

    He’s being taken advantage of

    By Neo Nazis

    And has become the face of white supremacy.

    They’re weaponizing his condition against him

    And taking advantage of him,

    And he doesn’t even see it.

    It’s disgusting.

    It’s abhorrent.

    And the saddest part is, they don’t give a shit about him.

    Not one bit.

    If they have their way,

    He would be the first to go.

    He’s spreading hatred and bigotry

    To millions of people with his platform.

    He’s normalizing white supremancists’ ideas for them.

    He has the potential to radicalize people with his hateful rhetoric and ideas.

    It’s dangerous.

    It’s horrid.

    It’s sad.

    He has to be called out and held accountable for his actions,

    And so do the people who Kanye associates with.

    They all do,

    And anyone else who spreads hateful messaging.

    They all need to be held accountable,

    And Kanye needs to get help.

    He needs to get treatment.

    I doubt he’ll read this,

    But on the off chance he does,

    Kanye,

    I loved your music back in the day.

    Your songs were great.

    I really liked your old music a lot.

    But now, seeing you like this,

    A white supremacist,

    A fascist,

    I can’t rock with this.

    I won’t put up with it.

    It’s disturbing to see

    You’re the complete opposite from who you used to be.

    And it’s scary to see.

    I have friends who are racial minorities.

    I, myself, am mixed race.

    To see this country full of hate,

    And to see this shit spread

    On the mainstream web,

    Is just disturbing to see,

    And it makes this country

    Feel unsafe for me.

    I worry about my friends.

    I don’t want anything to happen to them.

    They’re like family.

    And to see this shit spread like wildfire

    Is disheartening to me.

    It’s hard to process or believe

    What’s been happening.

    It’s all crazy.

    It’s all fucked up.

    It’s all messed up.

    It’s all twisted, turned upside down.

    I don’t know what will happen.

    These times are uncertain.

    But I do know is, you have to remain positive.

    I know that’s easier said than done,

    Especially in these times.

    Make new friends,

    Meet new people,

    Keep in touch with friends you do have,

    Network,

    Do hobbies and things you like.

    Whatever brings you happiness,

    Do it, to a reasonable degree.

    Hold onto your money,

    For things might get bad.

    Stay close to your friends and fam.

    Whomever makes you happy, hold onto them.

    You need to have as much support as you can during these troubling times.
