Yeah critics have definitely been holding back in supporting waka

its hilarious to me how much corny ppl are swayed by shit like the PETA ads, like, he's an offensive embarrassment who is perpetuating violence, until we all get to know him a little better & he starts showing he cares abt pets, then its like, ok sure he has songs abt killing people but cmon he doesnt REALLY MEAN IT
its like, as soon as his persona undercuts the convincing-ness of his music, critics can jump on board safely. for all the talk abt authenticity being a myth its as much a part of public reception as it ever has been

well that may be, i really have not seen any of the reactions to the PETA ads (apparently the nude ones were a year ago and only the other ones are new), i just love those pics and think they're totally consistent with at least my personal conception of who waka is and i mean c'mon how can you not love this

I could very well be off base here but my knee-jerk reaction is that the surefire way to make "tattoo-laden 'scary' black violent rapper" seem MORE threatening to mainstream America is to add "naked"

well he's not really "naked" because he's wearing a Fozzy Bear chain

a lot of really tough people love dogs
― Mississippi Butt Hurt (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 15:59 (twelve years ago) link
oh totally
but after the whole michael vick thing it's generally a good look when really tough black celebrities publicly talk about how loving dogs means doing no physical harm to them

i have a definite soft spot for anyone who loves pittys and treats them right and tries to speak out against abuse or irresponsibility toward the breed
― boy, was that Dan Fielding hungry for some cake! (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:31 (twelve years ago) link
WTF? This campaign is awesome! Especially if it gets a few Waka fans to think about animal rights. I guess I'm just a big "corny ppl", and whoever said Waka's perpetuating violence anyway? *so confused*

i don't know if waka said anything specific about pitbulls, i was just speaking generally
― some dude, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:34 (twelve years ago) link
i thought he had pits in the photo shoot? they looked pitty to me and the hip hop star/pitbull messaging seemed very PETA oriented
― boy, was that Dan Fielding hungry for some cake! (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:36 (twelve years ago) link
oh ok i haven't seen much besides teh 2 photos i posted with non-pitbull puppies in them
― some dude, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 16:38 (twelve years ago) link
continue your pitty party
maybe i'm just profiling, i dunnowould have been much more interesting if it had been waka with a chihuahua or a pekingese
