Cordae is one of those young rappers in the game who isn’t afraid to speak his mind, especially regarding racial issues in the entertainment industry.
On Thursday (November 11), Cordae took to Twitter to vent about the fake activism circulating in the industry. According to Cordae, many of these entertainers are only putting on a show and not caring about issues within the Black community when it truly matters.
“Most of these entertainers only pro black when it’s convenient,” Cordae said in his series of tweets. “Or when it’s ‘cool.’ It’s a lot of Oreo ass niggas in this entertainment shit.”
It’s no secret that Black culture is profitable, and big companies steal it for their benefit without really giving back to the causes, but to hear Cordae say it’s trickling down to the artists and entertainers is alarming. Cordae is not just doing this for fun either as he’s taken action like participating in a Breonna Taylor protest last year that landed him in jail. Fans are hoping Cordae can speak more about these issues on his upcoming album A Bird’s Eye View.
Cordae has been going through a healthy transformation while working on the new album. The HiLevel Records boss took to his Instagram to showcase his recent weight loss journey earlier this month. In Cordae’s mind, the work he’s putting into A Bird’s Eye View has to reflect his well-being.
“While creating this forthcoming album, I was forced to elevate myself in mind, body, and spirit,” Cordae said in the caption of his post. “I’ve become more self-reflective and self-aware than ever. While my vessel has improved, it’s nothing compared to my mind, spirit and soul which has reached even greater heights. Still growing, still getting better day by day. #FromaBirdsEyeView #HiLevel.”
Pro black is racist
White and lonely, clearly
nothing wrong with being pro-white. the problem is when whites use it as privilege or power & hold others that aren’t white behind. black people, even if they’re pro-black, don’t get that opportunity, and wouldn’t even if they could, as it’s not in their nature to do so.
Bless brother
“Dont have the opportunity… blah blah blah” This isn’t the 60s anymore. You have every opportunity as anybody else. You have black colleges for gods sake. Stop blaming the system on all of your problems. You don’t see Hispanic people bitching. African Americans are the biggest cry babies in the entire world. By far the highest crime rates in the entire country yet a small fraction of the population. But all you hear is it’s because of the system… that’s why itll never change for black people. When will you start asking the right questions to fix problems within your own community?
u can’t read too well. i didn’t ‘blame’ anyone. since you don’t comprehend english well, let me explain. what i said was, if blacks had the ability to control society to the point where they had the advantage over all races in that society whenever they wanted it, or deemed it necessary, they still wouldn’t do it because they aren’t built that way naturally. your white-ass would twist it up and make it something else to fit your wicked agenda but that doesn’t surprise me.
you sound dumb as hell. black people cant love themselves without white peoples feeling neglected lol
Nope you’re just racist
Cordae thinks he’s “real” by saying this kind of shit. But he is fake as hell. Wannabe teenager.
Young brotha, it’s called the Music “BUSINESS” and more often than not, being pro black is not good for their business. The ones that attempt to stay pro black get shelved or black balled for not know when to turn that off.
Facts my man…these types of understandings mostly come with age, or early experience with business ownership
( cough ) Kp
