rananicolee 10,276 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 He’s extremely charitable. A lot of kpop fans misunderstand him. Yes he has said dumb things and he does admit when he’s wrong. He’s always willing to learn. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blossoms 4,722 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 He really is one of the only celebrities using his platform for good, it's admirable. and these comments are right, KHipHop culture rides on the back of African Americans... but when things get serious/political they are silent. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turn it up! 2,391 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) you know he is a very corny and annoying man at times. but this truly means a lot and should be applauded. Like I really love that he did this He's doing better than majority of the big name non black western celebs that are busy spamming twitter with bullshit instead of using their platforms to SPEAK about the blatant oppression black people in america face to this day Edited May 29, 2020 by turn it up! 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joyurigged 273 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Good. I wonder if any other idol will talk about/act on it. I highly doubt it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does fuck shit but I give credit where its due. The fact he's actually speaking out on his platform is great and commendable. People love black culture but hate black people lol. As rihanna said if u have friends and they claim to be for you and to be your friend tell them to pull up and show up.

Haze 10,915 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Hope he sets an example and encourages other idols who are from the states to actually help & properly spread awareness on the matter as well. Not all idols of course, just the Americans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Jellyfish 23,232 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Though the man is a clown, he at least steps up at times like this so I'll give him that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're quite close to Jay considering they're his artists so I know he told them plus they are super against all of what's happening in America.

Yea, Jay, Simon, Sik, and Ph-1 are all connected, with Ph-1 also being American so it all makes sense that they're like minded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiseLikeACrowTit 862 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) I don't find it weird at all, he is very entangled to the black community in the states, I second that many artists that benefit from the black community not only should express their outrage but open the wallet, including BTS, Beyonce, Kanye, Drake, etc Edited May 30, 2020 by RiseLikeACrowTit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
