For real black artists like Kendrick have been a huge disappointment. Their big mouth about the oppressed never went past their own neighborhood. Instead the whitest guys on the block are stepping up.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar called out the racism double standard in the Black community years ago.

Kendrick routinely donates to charities. He focuses on Compton and LA, but to paint it like he doesn't donate to causes that serve the underprivileged isn't quite accurate.

Not a single word about Palestine in 3 years. Kendrick is a fraud.
