the aryan line refers specifically to nazis, dont worry about it kendrick doesnt hate white people lmao. im indian so i cant really relate to his struggles and im not white so i dont really feel "targeted" but i get what you mean, its strange listening to something that was obviously meant for a different demographic to listen to

The whole song is about black hypocrisy in criticizing the police for killing black people but not black people for killing each other by gangbanging.

yea this is pretty spot on I think. Whole song is about being proud of being black, how white people are evil racists, then ends with pointing out the hypocrisy of black on black violence.
Yea I listen to a ton of different music including rap and sometimes it feels weird with something obviously written to connect with a different demographic but you still feel and appreciate it.

I started a conversation about the song and the meaning cus I didn't really get it, sorry you hate me for that.
it was a shallow interpretation but I get it now. also what's wrong with feels/vibes? Songs have vibes

This isn’t twitter and you sound like you’re 16

The whole situation of appreciating music that was made for a different demographic than your own is more what I meant the thread to be about. Some people feel a little weird about it but still like it, others might not feel weird at all, idk. Not just limited to rap.

Not only is Aryan a completely outdated and nonsensical racial concept, not all white people were considered Aryan.
It referred to ancient Indo-European peoples who lived in modern day Iran - in fact it's where Iran gets its name - who went on to conquer the Indian Subcontinent, moving up and westward through the Caucasus, breeding with caucasians, and their conquering blonde-hair/blue-eyed offspring going off into Europe to found all the great nations of the continent. Or at least, so goes the 19th century/early 20th century theory.
Aryan isn't a scientific term it's a political one - it can only mean something when used in reference to yourself, as white nationalists emulating Hitler do. Nobody has a right to call you it or hold some pseudoscientific voodoo against you.
