The reason is controversial is because the rich politicians are threatened by this song uniting the common man
Amen.
And they should be worried. Did you see him laughing at them for playing it since he was writing about them? LOL @@alsalthree
Yup. This song is what a preference cascade sounds like. Have a look at the vids from African-American reactors, and you'll see why some folks are so desperate to tar him as a racist.
@@Cybrludite I've seen them and completely understand. I actually fear for this man's life a he is making extremely powerful enemies
For sure. That and the fact that some right-wingers completely misunderstood it and thought it was a pro-republican song. Which caused some lefties to go on the defensive against it. I guess listening to lyrics isn't some folk's strong suit.
This song is the people's anthem. I'm a Black man in my 30s who lives in NYC ('obviously North of Richmond...lol), and works on Wall Street, but I feel this song. Again, this is the people's anthem regardless of race or socioeconomic status. We all feel this song.
Yes! I bet most of the actual workers at the biggest NY law firms and Wall Street brokerages feel this as they sit in the apartments they have to share if they want to get by.
@@adhunterpenticton - Believe it or not, not everyone who works in investment banking, medicine, law, engineering, business, academia etc came from wealthy elitist backgrounds. I would say that most people came from working class families, and can therefore relate to an ‘anthem’ like this. I didn’t grow up in a wealthy family. I was born and raised overseas in Trinidad & Tobago mostly in a single mother household. Many people I work with also were not born into wealth. Simply worked and studied hard in primary and high school…got accepted into good universities….smashed GPAs…and work in their field of studies. So, no…I don’t feel any guilt for working hard and doing okay, yet still loving and feeling this song. 🤷🏽♂️
Amen, I'm white and poor and i have been pretty tired of feeling bad for being white when the real issue is that the game is rigged against us regardless of our skin color.
Yeaaaah! SUPER POWER music
@@fidel2xl Master In Engineering and living paycheck to paycheck, been doing the job on a Tech, and working a second job at a Adjunct Professor for the past 20 years, because I have been told over and move that is more important that Women, Minorities, and Foreigners need to be given the good jobs, because I have to be punished for the crimes of past white males! But in truth it is some liberal want to deal with their "White Guilt" at someone else expense, or some conservative what cheaper major and not to have to pay benefits.
I have watch a lot of reaction videos to this song, and what is interesting how the Right is up set about it and the Left is upset about it for very different and twisted reason. Which to me make this the 21 century version of Thomas Pains 18th century Common Sense magazine.
1:00 "I don't understand why the song is so controversial." It's controversial because the song is resonating with all cultures and bringing people together. The bad guys want to keep us divided and distracted so they can rule over us. Appreciate your reaction.
Yeah for sure… Rich men north of Richmond would prefer us to be divided.
❤❤❤
💯
Bingo. I think the magic is that both sides of this cultural divide think this song is about them, and then they realize that the people on the 'other' side worry and care about the same things they do, but they've been set against each other on very specific issues...by design.
@@tombstoneranch69that last part is the kicker. It was designed this way by those with all the power.
Just saw him on Rogan congrats Anthony. Screw anyone trying to tear this man down.
Me too.
Those that want to tear him down, probably have their names on the (unreleased) flight logs traveling to and from a certain island. Just sayin...
I think people just took the fudge round and welfare comment way too damn literal, and I can speak on this subject for multiple reasons. But what he's actually saying is the unnecessary handouts when folks just refuse to work and those that clearly are in need of assistance and for whatever dumb reasons cannot receive it. And honestly the SNAP program will pay for monster energy drinks but not hot meals, does that truly make sense ?? I personally love this song, this style of music is my childhood maybe that's why it reasonates so deeply for me.
Also, tax payer money going to corporations who are selling junk to the peasants.
I live in Portland. I see this every day. Snap can buy a case of bottled water; people dump the water and get 10c a bottle cash. Its like 10:1 loss ratio...not too mention all the water and plastic wasted. I see people buying candy bars and what not but can't buy vitamins. Lets face it...its not a homeless problem its an addiction problem. No if ands of buts and making all drugs legal was a very very stupid idea. BUT we desrerve it. Until my fellow portlanders wake the F up and vote out the democrats...we are doomed.
I honestly think the problem is its human nature to not want to admit when we're wrong. Even the voters. " why I couldn't be hood winked, i'm smart. I make a lot of money" So they still vote democrat yet expect the party that has had total control for 20 years to slove the problem. Thats an addiction in itself..
I know. I voted democrat for 25 years.
Agreed, snap will pay for a fountain soda if you don't put the straw in until you walk outside 😂 but you can't buy a hot dog that's warm?!
After they get sick, eating subsidized junk food, then we have to pay for their outrageous medical bills.
In Michigan it pays for McDonald's now
The controversial part is that IT'S NOT CONTROVERSIAL!!
The fact that he is singing from his soul and with such passion and is anti establishment makes some people lose their minds. The first reaction videos from both sides were amazing. A Belgian twitch streamer did a reaction on twitch and YT at the same time and the live interaction on twitch was epic. Thanks
I think the fact that people are hating on this man proves that he is right with the line "Young men putting themselves 6 feet in the ground cause all this damn country does is keep kicking them down".
Couldn't agree more with your first sentence. That's why I love the "They think that you don't (know)* but I know that you do." part people are aware but don't say anything because they got bills to pay and an over time to work.
The people he's talking about are trying to find ANY reason to "cancel" this song because he is speaking truth and so many people around the world are identifying with this song.
you understand that the first time he said "miners" and the second time he said "minors" on an island as in epsteins island
I am living this song. 60+ hours with a family it’s tough. He did a great way expressing himself.
Just to add... Welfare lyric can be interpreted as statistics show a large % goes to soda and junkfood. He posted a video and set the record strait on it. He was referring to a local news article about kids going hungry. Well done reaction.
This. I worked retail and that was 95% or higher of the use for EBT cards and government aid. Not healthy foods or stuff good for them. 3-9 cases of soda if it was on sale.
It took me several years to get on work disability. I have a crippling back injury and I have PTSD pretty bad, I can't be in a group of people, ever. I get the bare minimum and I'm happy with it. And yes I worked retail for a while, I get the welfare comment. I also did volunteer work for a ministry, that solidified my ideas.
I drive a taxi in a city of about 300k...and what you are saying is so true....I've loaded the groceries in the trunk....cases of sodas, lots of frozen pizza and the like,tuns of potato chips....lots of junkfood.....ends up with obese children that thinks the world owes them something
5’3” and 300 lbs. is literally morbidly obese. As in, if you don’t make changes soon, you’re going to die. It could be argued that, if the government is paying for your food, then they are killing you😢
Also, look at it from the perspective of the working-poor people, seeing people not working and taking government money and getting fat….
The fudge round thing was about the fact you shouldnt be able to buy junk with food stamps
Ahhhh thank u haha. Now that im getting the whole picture with this guy its all so sad.
@@sp00kysquirrel To take a bit farther. He has a video where he breaks down this part of the song. He read an article earlier in the summer that said children in Richmond were missing meals because their parents couldn't afford food. The kids were missing the school lunches because school was out. The break down of welfare or EBT money is like 40% junk food. I think he said 10% was soda and 30% was on things classified as snack food or junk food. He clearly stated it's not the fault of the people, but inefficiency of the government and their programs. He then said we can spend money on a war in another country, but we can't feed our own.
a lot of these 300lbers are selling those food stamps too. I see it constantly living in the hood.
@@csb5128 I haven't seen that video, but will look for it later. My own experience is going to work everyday, busting my butt, breaking my body, getting my paycheck and seeing a chunk taken out of it to the point that by the time the rest of it is spent on necessities for my family, there isn't enough left for us to enjoy any fudge rounds. Sometimes, it seems like some people living off of my taxes are living better than I am.
Sadly it's cheaper to eat junk then to buy healthy.. They want to keep people unhealthy & relying on the handouts. Some people play the system but there are some who feel trapped. My aunt raised 4 boys on her own, they didn't enforce child support back then, she worked 5 jobs & when she tried to get health ins for them they told her she needed to quit working & get on welfare before they'd help her.
Who besides politicians or the demented are “throwing hissy fits”?! This is a song most Americas can relate to regardless of political opinions
Rich out of touch leftists for the most part.
Well, I would think those screaming the loudest probably have their names on the (unreleased) flight logs traveling to and from a certain island. The media lapdogs went into full hush-hush cover-up mode on that, and we were all supposed to forget about it. But Oliver just brought it back up... so now the media are all telling us this man is somehow bad, and we shouldn't be listening to him (or we are bad people by extension).
I mean don't forget the women who are 300 pounds living on welfare
He turned down an 8 million dollar recording contract, so he can record what HE wants to say to You
Songs like this were common 40 years ago.. Right now, if you are signed with ANY label you cannot say what he said. Simply not allowed (which is why we are so taken with Tom McDonald and Ren). It wasn't just the welfare and fudge round comment, he openly blames the political class in Washington (DC is just north of Richmond VA). It is not just the lyrics, its the clarity and delivery.. This guy hit a Grand Slam his first time at the plate...
Some of the brilliance of the song is being missed.. He want just complaining about free junk food. The line before he talked about the homeless starving on the street. It is commentary on the ineffectiveness of government.. the same government program is leaving people behind and at the same time offering so much to others that they can use the benefit to harm themselves. It is commentary on big government ( I have watched his personal intro and comment videos which explains much of this)
Truth!
They were common 60 years ago. Dylan, Guthrie etc.
Yes, but no one knew how to listen back then...lol
He made everybody see all of us around the WORLD and put them in our shoes made them see a reality the upper crust didn't want to see or even hear about!!!! His words are perfect and needed to be heard.
Nobody was really offended by the fudge round 😂. The left thought (wrongly) this was a MAGA anthem because of the miner/minor part so they attacked it. The fudge round was the only point of attack.
Leftists do seem awfully interested in children.
Bingo. Nailed it
Amazes me how many people are offended by the truth these days. This song is cold hard truth.
Loved your reaction to this - so agree with a lot of what you said. Honestly I think all the "controversy" is being manufactured by the establishment media who are afraid of it, because it's a blue collar anthem that is being embraced around the world, and they don't like that. It's also a song by a completely independent artist that debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 - something that has never been done by an unknown artist before. If you watch any of his videos where he's just talking and explaining his views, he's clearly a genuine person. Anyone hating on him or this song says a lot more about them than it does about him or his music.
Yeah I agree with you 100% the establishment is terrified of this song because it unites us all left right all of us I consider myself a progressive liberal and this song literally brought me to tears. This man did not sing a song he came out preaching the truth this is the song of the people.
In a few words to the point. I agree 💯%!
Greetings from Germany. 🤗
I believe his wording was BANG ON. Sometimes in life, you gotta slap a person in the face(sometimes literally). In order for them to pay attention & truly hear the message that you are trying to convey. This man might have been singing into a microphone, but he was speaking to our souls with this song. I am primarily a Metalhead, I usually don't listen to country, bluegrass or whatever label you wanna give Oliver's music here. That being said, GREAT music transcends ALL genres & he has succeeded in doing that. Enjoyed your reaction. Keep up the GREAT work! 🤘🤘🤘
This country is so worried about what people say and think instead of saying what this man said in this song! AMEN Oiver Anthony...preach on brother
The controversy also comes from the fact that the left has labeled this as a right-wing anthem. The mainstream media fanned the flames.
Oliver Anthony (real name Chris) is also mad because this song was discussed during the GOP debate last week. He isn't picking sides and is pissed off that it is being assigned a side. The song is really centrist in what it says.
The choice of fudge rounds was really more about song structure. It is more about how the welfare system is abused. However, people that missed the point are saying it's fatphobic.
I would also recommend Ain't Got a Dollar for the next song you check out.
The first comments I saw were MAGA people claiming it and him, until he kind of set them straight. People are insane anymore.
It’s controversial because it’s the truth and that hurts a lot of feelings.
People want to claim his music, tribalism wants to put him in a box. Media wants to discredit him. But the vast majority of people resonate with this song. Record labels offered him $8M, but they would never publish his music.
The fact of the matter is, MOST of America can relate to this song, because we know that the politicians are not working for the people... instead, it's the complete opposite. They are getting richer and richer while lording their power over us, causing us to have to work harder and harder to bring home less money, which is worth less almost every single day (it seems). He's basically letting us know that we're not alone in feeling this way about the state of the country... the whole world, actually. And he did it so simply, so honestly, with a pure heart, so it's resonated with people.
VERY WELL SAID
You should look at part 2. And he explains the lyrics. The song has such a more deeper meaning than the people who want to be Offended, want to admit.
He stated after the song posted that he wrote the song about the politicians, so the mainstream media has to trash talk the song to appease the rich men north of Richmond. I feel these lyrics needed to be put out there.
It blew up for many reasons. One side, in their professionally offended brains, went after him for calling out the abuse of the sacred cow called welfare. The other is because we are 1 1/2 generations into music that has much to do about nothing (popular music- all genres) . It comes from the point of view of a working person that is not an "influencer"- yet ( not a jab) or some tv character. And the modern folks outside of traditional country aren't used to hearing the blunt honesty . It thumps people in their emotional forehead. Too many people try to throw around flowerdy words to skirt what their saying for the sake of being " appropriate". Never getting their message- if there is one- across to people who don't pay attention any further than what they can bob their heads to.
Another thing is it is raw. No over producing, or auto tune. No screaming guitars and filler instruments in the back ground. No flashing lights and pyro. It forces the listener to hear the words and the words are put out there plainly. You see the artist actually feel the words he is singing and not lip syncing to a track while the camera is rolling through multitudes of scene changes and edits, though there are a few. The modern world. In my opinion. Has forgotten what music is-or was- before technology got overused and abused and turned it into noise.
He's great. If you watch the video he just put out called Introducing Myself Pt 2 or sonething like that he explains a lot. You really get a good feel for his character.
Loved your reaction. My husband’s and my parents grew up in poverty. I grew up working class. He touches all of us. I’m the only one in my family to go to college. It’s a big deal to my family. Elites want to divide us by race and politics. We’ve got working poor, working class and disappearing middle class. We’re all struggling in a way those people will never know.
It's a conversation starter for sure. Makes folks question "Why do we have welfare/food stamps/WIC???" What is it designed to do? Is it actually accomplishing that goal or is it creating dependency? How do we have folks with no food on the streets but simultaneously have unemployed obese people? What kind of mismanagement of social aid impoverishes the folks it was supposed to help? Who's responsible for this F'd up situation? AND THAT's the question the ruling class don't want asked. so of course those minions of the suits must shut him down.
I had been resisting watching/hearing this song. I was glad to watch it for the first time with you!!!
I feel this guy's message... when I'm coming home from work and I can barely walk with bulged disks and a torn rotator and I see able bodied twenty-somethings holding a sign asking for money on a street corner I have VERY caustic and insensitive thoughts and comments to myself...
The line that I feel the most is "I wish that I could just wake up and it not be true, but it is." That's a realization that we're in a dystopia and we can't get out. The point about the fudge rounds is that it's my taxes paying for non-essential foods. It's one thing if they were buying life-sustaining necessities, but pepsi and fudge?
"...not just minors on an island somewhere" he went there like a BOSS!
His word choice is perfect IMO. It's supposed too make you wake up, in anger or agreement.
If I read Oliver Anthony right, through his music and public statements, his target audience is Oliver Anthony. However, it turns out that his actual audience is everyone in the world.
I've watched over 60 reactions to this song, from people of every race, religion, age group, and economic status, even middle class young women with green hair. I've seen reviewers from at least a dozen countries, and virtually every single reaction was positive. Last night I saw four young Korean women who don't even speak English, and 40 seconds in one of them commented "He speaks for me".
Here, in the comments of all these reactions, I've noted positive remarks from over 50 countries.
If he had a target audience he ended up striking everyone.
His names Chris BTW, Oliver Anthony music is the channel named after his grandfather.
Hi Victoria, I recommend to "Oktaf Kanis - Starlight" for the next reaction, thanks ❤
The people that take offense to the welfare comment: He’s not knocking welfare. What he is knocking are the people that can’t pay their rent maybe have no job etc. But yet, instead of using their welfare money to buy food and drink for survival they buy candy and (I know they say you can’t but I know several liquor stores that say and do differently, they spend the money on liquor and cigarettes (once in a while whatever) but if your kids are hungry and you’re spending your welfare check on cigs, alcohol, candy, etc and things that won’t help you survive, like “fudge rounds” (again, 1 time a month fine, multiple bags every week while your kids are hungry, cmon!!)
The fudge rounds people need a stark wake up call, and all people that have gotten out of that situation, and there are quite a few online, would agree 100%
The 1st amendment doesn't care about feelings and those offended by his words, should simply Elsa that Shit and "let it go" and he's 100% correct about the hard issues, the Suits in DC.
It's a lifetime of work in one song. He will be remembered. There are no outsiders your either with us or against us.
Love your reaction Victoria! Next do a reaction to 'Starlight - Oktaf Kanis' 🔥
See this is why i love doing reactions in the first place bc ive found so many new artists and songs bc of all of u haha thank u so much ive never heard of oktaf kanis ill check them out thank u!!!!
@@sp00kysquirrel okay thank you so much Victoria!
The realist musician putting on music right now love this man powerful song 💯💥💥💥💯
This guy just said what every working person has a problem with eloquently! I have seen walls broken down in the past two weeks on the internet! Cultural, racial, social, and political divides are literally being broken down and helping us all know that we are all in this together! That is the true power of this song, and the politicians don't like it because they want to keep people fighting. I enjoyed your response!
He said exactly what needed to be said exactly the way it needed to be said. The middle class has been feeling this way for years.
As a man who formerly worked in oil and gas and now works changing tires on semis, this man spoke exactly what we are thinking as men. There are people milking the system while others who need help don't get any
He speaks the truth 😊
What's controversial about it is, some people can't handle the truth. He's not putting obese people down, he's attacking the system.
I love how you try to be objective about this and seeing both sides. I like how you reacted to the "wrong" song first, hahahha. Love your reactions, take care always.
Yes ma'am, thank you for doing this one quickly!
He may have criticized how the stamps are used, but the issue goes in two directions. It is not only how inefficient these governmental programs are run, but should also point out how the individual chooses to use this gift from the people when tgere are no purchasing restrictions.
We are relatively poor and were forced to go on stamps when my wife was disabled from a brain tumor. We have been on them for several years. We don't use them to buy frivolous items and don't pack our shelves with processed crap. Our pantry is filled with items like beans, rice & pasta. Our freezer has mostly meat. We fix our food, not open a box and run for a microwave. Our culture has become lazy and a glutton for convenience. How someone spends this gift also comes down to personal integrity; something that is sorely needed in these times.
Feminist progressive Texan here. He’s not being fatphobic, he’s saying that the government should not be using his tax money helping already unhealthy people get worse while others are starving. He’s lamenting poorly run social systems and misuse of funds that most of us work to contribute to.
Most obese people (including myself) work hard to support ourselves financially and have a right to be whatever size we want to be, and I’m sure he would agree. But we don’t want to help someone else get fat who can work but chooses not to. We want our money to go to the vets on the street, the mentally ill, the physically disabled… those who really need it. Not those who abuse the system.
Perfect wording. It’s not bullying, it’s speaking the truth. Welfare needs to include meat, vegetables,dairy.
Not in needed junk food that just causes more health issues
Nah, It’s only controversial because he nailed it. 10/10.
Spooky: "I'm not aggressive but.... I'll fuck you up in Walmart". Lmfao 😂That was gold. I mean really all he did was call out the obvious with the "controversial" part of the song. A system that is designed to help you get back your feet statistically is get abused to no end and more that half the people on it tend to use it as a lifestyle instead. He was calling that a from an overworked person struggling to make sure everything is paid and have food on the table. Should check out his video of him talking about the song and his mental state before it and what led to him releasing it.
The welfare line, I feel it does hit a problem head on and it does offend. The problem is that it's easier, cheaper and more addictive to eat crap food that maintains bad body health.
You should react to 'Starlight - Oktaf Kanis' for the next reaction, thanks 🔥
Nice song 💕
@@manicmonday-3833 yup 💕
You don’t get it the song is perfectly written just the way it is. I wouldn’t change a damn thing if I change anything then it wouldn’t be the song it is right now I don’t think u get the song go and watch the video with him, breaking this song down for you in his car 💯💥💥💥💯🔥.
You weren’t wrong the rest of his catalogs pretty dope to. I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it, but I enjoy the rest of his catalog, and it needs to be shared as well.
Maybe he is just a act but that's not what myself and so many other Americans believe and it's his believability that makes this song hit so hard. (Most of us feel the way he does)
Love all of your reactions and how you truly let the song touch your feelings. You always make me smile. Thanks and keep it up! 🔥
Thank u that seriously means a lot. Hope u have a good day 💚💚
Great song. Oliver Anthony got mad bars. Wow. Love everything about this song. Consider the ISLAND bar and how odd it is that THAT ISSUE isn’t in mass conversation instead of Fudge Rounds. So super self centered people avoiding the dark demon in the room. We have out grown the internet’s type of bitching, bullying and coercion. Song is felt by most.
Food stamps should allow people to buy healthy food. That’s his point. You shouldn’t be able to buy junk food with them. The government likes to promote anything that keeps you down
the controversial part is when he talks about minors in an island somewhere he talking about human trafficking and pedophilia
Request for the next reaction: Starlight by Oktaf Kanis, thank you Victoria ❤
Starlight 🔥
🔥 as always! Glad u got to this!!
Thank u u the best 🥰
Great reaction! Everybody who has to work for living can relate to this song. Thanks!
I'm a old white cowboy.
This song brings us together.
My 2 cents on the "Welfare" thing.
1) What Welfare SHOULD be, and what Welfare IS, are 2 completely different things.
A) What it SHOULD be, is a system designed to help you get what you need to survive + help to find employment if you are physically capable of working. Then it ends once you are 'back on your feet'
.
B) What is IS, is a dependence driven system designed entirely on keeping people leashed to that dependence in return for Political votes. Your given what you need to survive, but never given anything to get you back on your own feet and self-reliant. All while being told "if you dont vote for me, all of this will be taken away by 'the other side' ".
If you are physically UNABLE to work, there are vary few people who will have any problem with you taking advantage of Government assistance, because at that point, you need it.
If you ARE Physically able TO WORK, then no. The taxes taken out of MY paycheck, from those "overtime-hours for bullshit pay" should NOT be constantly feeding your chocolate addiction while you sit at home, never attempting to find employment, and making 0 attempts to 'get on your own feet'.
That really is all there is to it.
"Not gonna lie The fudge rounds thing was a big kick to the stomach."
I couldn't write a bigger pun or oxymoron if I tried and it just came out of you.
I think the most important line was about politicians not looking out for Miners/Minors in our own country not just Epstein Island.
I think the main reason he words it the way he does is because he's talking about accountability. He says that everything's broken, then goes on to list all of the people keeping it that way. Corporations don't pay enough while they destroy small businesses, politicians don't care about us while they take more and more money, and fellow citizens are letting us carry their weight.
This is only controversial to the people who want to oppress you. I hope people keep waking up!
it's Minors not just Minors on an island somewhere... Many people think he's saying miners
He is. If you look at the lyrics it’s miners and minors on an island
depends on what version of the lyrics you see I guess@@007carson
If you don't understand it's because you've never had to struggle like that. The entire world is feeling it.
This song is for all people in our country.
It's a masterpiece! 4 Chords and the Truth! Suck it up butter Cups!
I think you would like his "I want to go home" song as well. I love your reactions.
Idk what your reading but this guy is damn near universally loved. The shit talkers are just doing there typical "everybody racist" when the haves take a hit from the have nots.
You do a good job. Thanks for being you. Thanks for sharing with all of us.❤
My brother worked in a grocery store for 40 years the EBT card he always called it the junk food card, how right he was
Great review, loved it.
You should check out north of Richmond by Chris webby
HOG fam in da house 🔥
52 y.o.rocker
Dude's saying Alex Jones was right
This song caught the emotion a lot of people are feeling. The words were simple and perfect for this message.
To quote the NWO & the late great wrestling legend hall of famer Scott Hall: You are just: TOO SWEET!!!!!!!!!😱🤘🤘
Starlight by Oktaf Kanis for the next reaction ❤
I dont think any of the hateful comments about this song I saw even mentioned the fudge part. they are calling him a right wing extremists lol
Good lord thats ridiculous 🙄
IKR? its crazy @@sp00kysquirrel
So many people living lives of ease talking like 'why you punching down/class wafare.'
I ignore the MF who trash this guy.
The whole fudge round thing was followed by young men putting themselves six feet in the ground..Thank You that was nice..
Everything he says is the truth.
Some people don't like it when you
tell them the truth.
It's because the song is about north or Richmond (DC) and politicians have been using it to get votes. But the song is about them
I don't care if this dude ends up being a plant. It would be the best thing the industry did for itself because this guy is fuckin on point.
I doubt the industry would self own so directly, but the 2020s have been pretty fuckin wild so far.
This coulda been an 80's punk rock song.
In my opinion honest songs are supposed to invoke thought. Whether one agrees with the lyrics is not as important as the discussion that follows. It’s sad when this country says we should have more diversity in race and gender but it looks down on diversity of opinion or thought. You should read his comments on this to gage his thoughts on what he meant. They don’t like him because he’s taking shots at the establishment.
He's not an actor. He turned down an $8M record deal after this song blew up. Rich men North of Richmond is politicians in Washington D.C. Washington D.C. is north of Richmond VA
When the government can program the snap cards to discriminate between approved foods and alcohol, why can’t they disallow the junk food to a percentage of the overall food budget? Instead they open the candy store in a food dessert.
Some people just suck. Don't blame you for keeping to yourself. Do want you need to to stay sane.
This guy is as real as it gets. Watching his introductory videos parts one and two give you a great insight into his heart and soul. I appreciate your balanced reaction and seeing through the hivemind speech based on media outrage.
