Andrew Schulz Stands His Ground Against Kendrick Lamar Backlash, “I Hate Having to Explain Jokes”

HonkMagazine

Comedian Andrew Schulz is known for speaking his mind, and he’s making headlines again due to a recent controversy involving rapper Kendrick Lamar. During a discussion on The Breakfast Club, Schulz addressed the backlash he received after responding to a line from Lamar’s song, “wacced out murals.” The trouble started when Lamar made a reference to Schulz in his lyrics. In response, Schulz made a joke that many people found offensive, implying he could take advantage of Lamar because he’s shorter. This comment led to criticism, with many calling his joke inappropriate and harmful.

Nonetheless, Schulz defends himself, stating that context is important and believes he was responding to Lamar’s challenge. “They turned it into something racist right away. I’m just pointing out that he’s small!” Schulz said, expressing his frustration over the uproar. He added, “I don’t like having to explain my jokes. He’s little, so why is he telling people to harm my friends?” Schulz also pointed to Lamar’s lyrics, arguing that since Lamar made aggressive statements first, his joke was fair game. While Schulz sees the outrage as an example of selective sensitivity, many believe he went too far. This situation has sparked broader discussions about the limits of comedy, artistic expression, and whether responding to insults in entertainment is acceptable.

However, Schulz remains firm in his stance, suggesting he’s not the real villain. “I don’t like being seen as a bully. He told his fans to harm my friends,” he emphasized, suggesting that Lamar’s aggressive lyrics prompted an equally strong reaction from him. As this back and forth continues to draw attention, one thing is clear: Andrew Schulz isn’t backing down, and the backlash isn’t going away either. Whether this situation will calm down or escalate remains to be seen, but Schulz’s refusal to apologize highlights his unfiltered and unapologetic style, for better or worse.

F1lthy Challenges DJ Akademiks to a Boxing Match After Controversial Comments on Playboi Carti’s MUSIC

HonkMagazine

The hip-hop scene is buzzing with excitement, and it’s not just about the music this time. F1lthy, a prominent producer who played a big role in Playboi Carti’s new album MUSIC, has thrown down a bold challenge that caught everyone off guard. This all started when DJ Akademiks, a well-known media personality, made some waves with his comments about the album’s launch, including some questionable claims about who was really behind its direction. Akademiks suggested that rapper Kendrick Lamar was the one creatively guiding the album, but F1lthy stepped in to set the record straight.

Instead of accepting the correction, Akademiks dismissed F1lthy, saying he didn’t even know who he was. For someone as influential as F1lthy, known for his work since Carti’s Whole Lotta Red, that comment felt personal. In response, F1lthy took to social media and issued a playful challenge, “You owe me a boxing match at Barclays Center.” Many fans are now excited about the idea of these two going head to head in the ring. Recently, it’s become trendy for celebrities to settle their disputes through boxing matches.

However, beneath this playful banter lies a more serious issue about how much respect producers deserve in the music industry. F1lthy has heavily influenced the unique sound of MUSIC, and his talent deserves recognition. While Akademiks may grab headlines with his commentary, it’s F1lthy’s beats that listeners truly enjoy. As the back and forth continues, it’s clear that their tension is far from resolved. Whether we’ll actually see a boxing match at Barclays Center is uncertain, F1lthy is ready to defend his name and fight for recognition.
