Shit, man, I was woke way before this. You don't have Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, and Eminem in heavy rotation for years without learning some real shit, yaknow.

I think this is legitimately a more powerful statement than the song itself


This is a much better song than "This is America"

I 100% unironically believe that within the context of each song's goals and ambitions "Call Me Maybe" is a much superior song to "This is America" in just about every single way

I judge song quality purely by meme-ability. This Is America passes the test.

No, no. I was saying Jesus is better than This Is America.

I disagree with that, unless we're talking about "Jesus Walks"

You don’t have the insight to dictate Gambino’s “goals and ambitions”.

I 100% unironically believe that within the context of each artist's goals and ambitions, nothing Kanye has ever made is superior to "This is America" in any conceivable way.

Well certainly not dictate them

So, explain the difference, within the context of the artists goals and ambitions, between these two songs.
