Hello, everybody.
I wanted to not necessarily apologize, but I wanted to explain, like, where my head at and where...
All right.
So, first off, pause.
Second off.
At this point, I don't even think the public, and I'm definitely not speaking for me,
but I don't even think the public cares about a little Nas X apology for his,
blasphemous and just mocking of Christianity.
I honestly believe they just want this man to burn in hell.
So with that being said, obviously,
Lil Nas X has had the most backlash I've ever seen
for an anti-Christianity type of marketing strategy
to the point where I had to remind myself,
is it because he's gay?
because a lot of other rappers have done the whole anti-Christianity worshipping the devil and it looked at as cool, mysterious.
I mean, there's so many different artists who do devilish imagery and gets away with it to the point where Little Nause X, which it was blasphemous.
I'm definitely not, I'm not excusing that.
The mocking of crackers and juice, I could swear there was an Ice Cube movie.
I don't know.
I can't pull it up because it's a movie.
I think it's like copyright or whatever.
But there's an Ice Cube movie where they like rob a church literally.
And during the crackers and juice segment,
there's like a character who's going crazy on the crackers and juice,
just like Lil Nas X was.
Now, of course, that leads me to my next point.
People pick and choose when they want to be upset.
So that is why I started off with showcasing his apology
because this segment is about his upcoming new track titled
what's his new upcoming track title
I just had it up here
oh where do we go now
and basically the announcement
followed his debut of
the Billboard Hot 100
with his latest single Jay Christ
because at first
everybody I mean everybody was just
celebrating
Jay Christ not being able to crack
the top 100
basically putting all type
of memes, whether it's Kevin Hart
talking about you shouldn't have been talking,
you know what? It's a peachy podcast, by the way.
But also pointing out how
people, well, no, how
Lil Nas X is just corny, boring,
and basically we just need to forget about him
and how God is keeping score. You know, it's just a lot of stuff
that they didn't have the same energy
with other musicians and other forms of entertainment.
So it's not like I'm sticking up
for Lil Nas X because what he did was crazy, of course.
But we have to, and for this portion,
definitely go to Analytic Dreams video on Spotify
to see the video along with the audio version,
because this is ridiculous, right?
Madonna has done portrayals of her as Jesus.
Nod's have done portrayals of him as Jesus,
the baby, Stormsy, Remy Ma.
Kanye
Kendrick Lamar
and this one happened
in 2022
I mean
Kendrick Lamar was literally
walking around
like he was Jesus himself
with a crown of thorns
and nobody said a word
but now
Lil Nas X has a spoof
an obvious spoof
of just eating a lot of crackers
and Jews
basically mocking communion
which is blasphemous
by the way
but it's not like
other artists
haven't made fun
of the religion
Christianity
I think what happened was
Lil Nas X being gay
along with his
devilist promotions from the past
if you don't remember
Let me see if I could look this up
So y'all can see it
Let me see
I think it's right here
Hopefully I can find a picture
Because if I say it y'all just won't believe me
It's like y'all got to be like just no way
Okay here it is
So Lil Nas X make sure the caption is not crazy
Anyways I think that that works
Lil Nas X had basically a Satan's shoe that he was putting out,
and there was a whole lawsuit around it simply for the fact that Nike was suing Lil Nas X
for using their likeness, basically, and how I always say Lil Nas X is one of the more
brilliant marketers I've seen in recent history, and that's not going away anytime soon.
But I will also say that he got a, well, it's not the first time he's gotten in over his head with his marketing strategies.
And this one proceeded before he had the whole anti-Christianity type wave.
Because if you promote a Satan shoe, right?
And you're saying that you're partnering with MSCHF to sell Satan Nike shoes containing human blood, you can see why.
people will come out and talk about how it's blasphemous and have just way more vitriol to
little nod's ex mocking Christianity because one he had the satan shoes two he's gay i know a lot of
people don't want to point that out but a lot of people have certain um what's the word
subconscious thoughts about gay people that's you know i would say teach his own but some people be
acting on it which is is not right so with that being said i think that's why little nods x compared to other
artists i mean i don't even know if i finished the list i finished the list oh okay hold up i am finished the
list back to people who's mocking uh jesus or acting like the o jesus we have mace tupac i think
that's i think it's it yeah so basically you know i think there's a lot of things that goes into
little nauts x getting all this backlash for just his anti-christianity marketing strategy
because he's not the first, he's not going to be the last.
And honestly, the things I pointed out previously,
I'm not going to keep beating a dead horse.
It's why I think he received the biggest backlash ever
that I've seen from a Christianity,
well, anti-Christianity marketing campaign.
So with that being said, obviously, the segment is simply to let you know
that his album, no, his track, his second single,
where do we go now?
It's coming out soon, following.
the debut of j christ at number 69 on the building billboard hot 100 that's i don't know why that's
funny that's just that's wild like little nod's ex debuting at 60 anyways um and obviously little
not's x being one of the more brilliant marketers i've ever seen in the hip-hop space
talking about how he wants to push his approach uh towards music and visuals i mean i think it's
going to keep working people are going to keep getting upset and controversy is going to come is going to
blow by because he literally has a whole HBO documentary dropping title a little nods x long live
montero if you think you can get an HBO documentary just out of the blue then you are sorely mistaken
little naz x is one of a kind when it comes to marketing i mean i literally compare him to conier west
when it comes to rolling out something and marketing and how he just encapsivates the world
with stuff that may may not even be true i mean with the satan shoes obviously that wasn't true
and everybody was acting like oh wow would nike partner with little noss x to the point
Nike had to come out and say hey we ain't messing with him and they had to come out and literally
deny involvement with little nose x and i don't know it's just funny because
nike also filed a lawsuit i don't have to keep going like over you know if i keep going
over the trademark infringement then um y'all gonna lose the main point but so yeah where do we go now
is being released this friday obviously this is a hand-drawn artwork with him holding hands with a
child and a green field think of something else that's basically it the music video also has some
interesting imagery let's just leave it at that and that's basically it uh little na's ex apologize but
like i said well no like i started off the segment you know people would rather literally see him
burn in hell so with that being said click my link tree in my bio let me know one of my social medias
what do you think is the reason for such strong backlash for little nods x's anti-christianity
marketing strategy and now that you know that basically every other artist
implements the same strategy at some point in time what is the main reason little nods x has caught the
most flak for doing it
