Cole is the poster boy for benevolent sexism. His brand of misogyny is the most typical of men. It’s insidious, normalized, and dressed up as performative “niceness” and “chivalry.”
That “I respect women—not bitches” kind of misogyny. A lot of y’all be on that shit.

This thread isn’t perfect bc I made it when I was younger and my understanding of benevolent sexism matured, however, the point pretty much still stands: https://twitter.com/delafro_/status/674646481404616704?s=21 https://twitter.com/delafro_/status/674646481404616704

Y’all keep bringing up rappers like Future and this is how I know y’all don’t know what *benevolent* sexism is. There’s nothing benevolent about Future’s misogyny. It’s blatant and why would I spend time dissecting the obvious?
Misogyny is complex, just as racism or any other form of bigotry is complex. It doesn’t come in one form. If you can understand a poor redneck who totes the confederate flag and the white professional who supports trump (but would never say the n word) are both racist then how..
Is this not clicking for you?
Lol if a white person said “I respect Black people, just not n*ggers” suddenly y’all would understand what I’m saying.
But misogyny is so normalized that y’all don’t even see how saying the former is saying “I respect women, just not bitches”

“But what about six nine?”
What about him? I have smoke for him too. I’m consistent with my criticism unlike y’all because until I was critiquing Cole, y’all did not care that 69 is a fucking racist ass pedophile. https://twitter.com/delafro_/status/1049742425013579778?s=21 https://twitter.com/delafro_/status/1049742425013579778

“You meant Drake, right?”
LMAO been on drake too. This is from 2016: https://twitter.com/delafro_/status/770721312075636736?s=21 https://twitter.com/delafro_/status/770721312075636736

So ANYWAY like I was saying, J. Cole is not perfect and he is not above criticism. Ain’t nobody “cancelling” him. Y’all don’t cancel men (until they do like a decades worth of damage) anyway.
“But what about crooked smile?”
What about it? You mean the same song he said “he still gets bitches?” Lmao
A stand-alone track does not negate a discography that antagonizes women that he doesn’t deem “respectable” because of shallow, patriarchal reasons.

A stand-alone track centering women also does not mean he still can’t be sexist. It does not mean he doesn’t have room for more growth. Men have daughters and still be sexist just like white ppl can have Black friends and still be racist.
BRUH. what’s not clicking?
BRUH. what’s not clicking?
Y’all aren’t going to bully me into not speaking about the misogyny in rap or misogyny in general. I criticize my own faves. Yours aren’t exempt.
