Thrilled that REWIRED by me & the incredible @ThatRyanParrott made the #BlackList2020 So much of this pursuit is about being your own best advocate, So nice when the industry takes notice and gives it back.

Nah were at the point where fuck all the gossip and allegations…
Who’s strategy had the most impact and showed they were the better at this MC shit?
Adam Gaines retweeted
jay z in his most famous diss track said “you know who did you know what with you know who”
and kendrick is out here like “dear drake’s parents i want u to know your horrible fucking deadbeat son keeps company w/ pedophiles & is possibly a pedophile himself”
the intensity is UP
Adam Gaines retweeted
If you think this battle is just Kendrick & Drake’s ego, gossip and mudslinging you are not seeing the full picture
The reverberations on how the next generation views and values what is important in being an MC is at stake here.
Adam Gaines retweeted
kendrick having a whole song structured around talking to drake’s family members one by one 30 minutes after drake released a song called “family matters” feels like bonafide proof that kendrick really does have a mole in drake’s inner circle lol this whole shit is nuts

The studios are buying less. Even if they buy your pitch, will the fear-based development homogenize it? Even if they "greenlight" it, will it be cast contingent? Even if they make it, could they shelve it later as a write off?
Consider what you can make now, within your means.
Great listen:

Dave wrote Training Day, made End of Watch, Harsh Times. And Fury. His life and perspective are fascinating. I’m deeply grateful and proud to call Dave a friend.

As someone who doesn’t exactly know how to help the current situation this 🧵seems like a good place to start:
Here’s how Dems can + must do more than wait for an election.
Let’s start w/ why:
- 7 of the 9 justices were appointed by a party that hasn’t won a popular vote more than once in 30 years
- 1 of those seats was stolen
- Several lied to Congress to secure their appointment…
