On this episode, I get to talk with my long time friend and “Soul Brother” Kymel Yard. In this conversation we covered a lot that dealt with colorism in general and colorism in Hip Hop, using our own Hip Hop journeys as well as Kendrick vs. Drake and the rapper Logic as reference points.
All together we spent a good 4 hours on these topics, so I broke it up into 2 parts.
Some of the talking points for this episode are:
- colorism in America – “is Logic Black” and the identity issues that bi-racials face and create for themselves in America
- colorism in Hip Hop
- the colorism issues that were addressed in Kendrick vs Drake
- how America packages and promotes “Blackness”
Insha Allah you find this video beneficial, and I hope to see you in the next one.
