Malcolm X said "The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent.” Media has the power to influence minds, ideas, behaviors, and attitudes of the masses.

[jrufus]

I doubt ye even needs caa now everyone knows who he is now why would he need a talent agency ?

Can you imagine if a Jewish celebrity said this about black people.

The people always claiming to be victims of racism are in fact the most racist. And protected to be so.

CAA represented him for touring only. He signed with the agency in 2016 and has not toured since. This is being used as a headline attention grabber for the sheep but will have little to no impact on his career and/or reach. The 🔯ish media spin on this is crazy. Further proving Ye’s point.

He ain’t lying. Those are not real jews

[Evettecord]

You mention the JEWS, they yell antisemitic. He’s not even antisemitic. He just critiqued how they r in the music industry and how we’re used to ruin our own image and community. I wished that more listened to him

[justswanginn]

Entertainment world = Jewish Playground. Just know what you dealing with. Too bad black folks don’t have an industry we control to maintain our respect and rights. But Jewish folks weren’t always in this position so I feel there is light- rather dim now though.
