The Kodak line was pretty much spot on.
“So I set free the owner of Witney may she heal us all” never fails to make me sob! Even if I keep it together until then, I can never get past this point 😅
About Anti Diaries and the nword: I am not actually sure if the concert he’s talking about was in the US or not, but you have to know that not all cultures ban words that harshly… where I come from we have slurs but if I just pronounce a word without intend (eg while singing along) nobody will bat an eye… I would never use it to address or describe somebody so it’s not part of my vocabulary at all, but that means I’ve never had to sensor myself until I realised how people saw it in other places (like 5 years ago)… same goes for the fword and words in my own language that basically mean the same thing… and I am not in any way defending the use of them, I am just saying that the full ban is a foreign concept in some cultures
The thing about “Auntie Diaries” that I’ve experienced is it is NOT for those who are already allies; it’s to assist those who aren’t or toe the line. To those around me who got it got offended on the first due to the misgendering and slurs and most had to re-hear the context. The 80’s, 90’s & early 2000’s were not as educated about the community and its nuances, much less in the black community which can be very phobic. To those who were not already allies, “meeting them where they are” seemed to be the most effective way to get the message across - and he’s willing to take the slings and arrows and risk being cancelled to deliver the message. Funny since the previous song he relinquished the weight of being a savior, but is still willing to do the right thing in his eyes.
Salem’s doing its’ best Emmanuel Todd Lopez impression IYKYK
The final track is in reference to rapper and activist Noname, who dissed both Kendrick and J. Cole for their silence during the George Floyd protests.
Great video I’ve been waiting for this since you started the series. Also a little fun fact: you noticed the PRIDE. callback in Crown and PRIDE. has a callback to These Walls, which had a callback to Sing About Me, Im Dying of Thirst which had a callback to Keisha’s song. Kinda crazy how long he was crafting that for.
Fun fact: Kendrick’s nickname as a kid was man man because he acted too old for his age and everyone in his family viewed him as such.
Part 1 finally convinced me to make a Patreon account to watch Part 2 asap LOL ♡
