Spiderman should be black.

James Bond should be gay.

If he wants to.

If we wanna make a gay James Bond, fuck it.

Why not.

Why not?!

Fuck it, you know?

It's 2017, why not, who gives a shit?

Man, fuck all this like, all this like, accept diversity!

I'm gonna be honest, I'm used a nerdy white dude from New York City who plays spider

man cause that's how Stan Lee created him but I'm just saying the internet should

not explode when Donald Glover, somehow comes out, it starts as a joke, Donald for Spiderman

and then the internet explodes.

That's fucked up and it shouldn't happen.

This is a really good one cause I rap from so many perspectives especially in this song

so this is kind of all of us.

“i been feeling so down/i think they should know now/i think they should know what's

up/that's that road i been down/i know how it go down/i know how it go now what's up.”

It's like “I can do this.

I've been feeling down but I can really do this.”

So it's kind of a culmination of all the characters on this particular record.

I love this line because it's just so tight.

Black, white, hispanic all in one line, one thing.

My wife is beautiful.

She's gorgeous.

She's Mexican and white but she looks spanish and beautiful and I love her and I'm not

ashamed of her or our love or me or who I am or who you are.

I love my wife.

My wife is bad.

I'm gonna text my wife after this.

In this verse, I switch perspectives three different times.

So for me, that's like a gay man trying to come to terms with himself not being accepted

in his family and then turning to substance and abusing substance to try to cope with

what's going on in his life which I think a lot of people have experienced and they've

been there in different avenues of their life and that goes on for a while kind of rapping

from that perspective and it's like, you can be anything you want to be except the

person you don't' want to be.

And that's how I feel about all the gay people I've met and when they express it

to me.

Growing up in my household, my mother was super christian and she was like, “Homosexuals

don't enter the kingdom of heaven.

All gay people are going to hell.

They're going to burn and die in hell.”

That's what I heard growing up and I always thought that was fucked up.

I was like, “I don't' know man.

That sounds kind of messed up.”

I mean I've even felt this as well, where I've heard a song or something and I related

to it.

A lot of J. Cole when I was young because here's this biracial dude, who's trying

to make it and it's all about the come up.

That's why my mixtapes were always, “I got to make it dog, yeah.”

I was listening to J. Cole so much.

“I got to blow/I can't wait.

Young simba!”

And I'm like, “Yeah!”

Doing the same shit.

And then I found myself and it is what it is.

But I would listen to J. Cole, “His motherfucking story is like my story.

I can't believe.

Oh my god.”

And I think that's a real thing.

I don't want to be a slave to the stereotype.

“All alone in my room in the middle of the night/i don't have the words but ​my stereo

might.”

And hopefully I can be somebody's words through their stereo in this song, that's

kind of what it's about.

And once again, it's not that I make it about color but that's how I see it.

This is that strong, black woman.

That mother with children trying to get her education.

Trying to get everything and then also wanting the love of man and not her baby daddy but

another man not realizing that the only man she's going to need is the son that she

is to raise.

And obviously as human beings we seek out love and affection from others and a partner,

whatever the case may be but she knows that the most important part of her life is her

son, that she is going to raise to go out into the world and do the right thing.

I created her story through different stories of strong, black women in my life.

Which is pretty cool to think about.

Amidst how crazy this whole song is and how serious it is, I just love that line.

“I'm just as white as the mona lisa.”

That bitch white as fuck.

It's hilarious.

“I'm just as white as that mona lisa/I'm just as black as my cousin keisha,” who

exists.

“I'm biracial so bye felicia.”

I just feel that brings a smile to your face when you hear it the first time.

I just don't see jesus being hella pasty.

It just doesn't make sense when you think about where he comes from.

And all that stuff.

But I don't know...this is where I”m not here to argue about religion.

I'm not here to say what Jesus was or wasn't.

It just comes down to the fact that me saying, “Black Jesus,” shouldn't make you be

like, “Ahh.”

So what maybe Jesus was black.

You know how many black households I've been in and they got black Jesus?

There is legit Asian Jesus on people's walls.

I've gone in their house and they got Asian Jesus.

I swear to god.

These things exist but I've been so used to seeing white Jesus, everywhere.

It's not about that.

It's not about religion.

People be quick to be like, “What do you mean?

Jesus was…”

Why don't you shut the fuck up man and understand what I'm saying.

This is about racism.

This is about depicting what is or should be or shouldn't be.

Or this or that and that's why I say, fuck it, let spider man be Puerto Rican, Black,

Asian or whatever.

It doesn't matter.

It's about the song.
