>>93729579
The music of the marvel cinematic comes in two varieties. You will either have American pop music, or shitty background music. Either you wont notice it or it is just there so the average American will recognize it.

>>93729579
>Movie about an African hero set in Africa
>Said African is played by an American.
Gee, I don't understand that either, OP.

>>93729579
Marvel thinks all black people are like black Americans in ghetto neighborhoods.

>>93729579
Hip hop doesn't even have messages these days. The beat was kickin and the rhymes were tight, but the song was literally, literally, two rappers rapping about how they're both rappers and are awesome because of it.

If you're going to make an Americanized BP, at least have him listen to the good shit.

>>93729579

I had a problem with this as well.

Why not use some traditional African music? Do something interesting with it, give it a sci-fi twist, I dunno.

I could name 15 rappers that would prove you wrong.

I remember when the trailer for the movie about the Tuskegee Airmen (ww2) had dubstep. That rustled my jimmies.

>>93729579
I don't understand it and while I do love RTJ, that shit is so tiresome. How about some creative original music. The nigga needs a theme, right? That would have been a good time to give people a taste of said theme. Instead, we get "lel they're black, make it hiphop"! I'm not the type of person that walks around getting triggered, but this shit and people using the phrase "people of color" will never not piss me the fuck off.

The lack of message in the trailer song is probably because very few artists would sing about the hardships of being an african superhero king who has to live daily with every other leader on the planet trying to fellate him for just a sliver of his nation's scientific advancements and resources.

>>93729984
Tribal sci-fi is what Kirby made Wakanda to be, but I'm sure this movie will be as devoid of Sci fi as it will jungle mysticism. I'm positive T'challa would abhor rap music honestly and the criminal low life culture it glorifies.

Well according to SJWs, white people are the only people capable of racism, so by that logic, they're the only ones who should feel targeted when people talk about racism in general.

>>93729579
I would love for them to use African hiphop instead. I once came across this group from Tanzania that mixed hiphop with Masai throat singing and it was awesome.

Then again it's just the trailer. They played the song Iron Man in the trailers for the Iron Man movie, but it didn't play at all during the movie.

Trailer tracks are stupid and shitty. The movie is more likely to have some vague and easily forgettable soundtrack based on another movie's soundtrack that came out recently. Hopefully it won't be like Doctor Strange where you can tell exactly what movie it is.

>>93746128

Yup, ancient egypt was actually quite puritan and didn't cotton to the african continent as they did with the middle east. Funny how history works sometimes. Funny how things change.

>>93746128
Yeah and according to /pol/ everyone who doesn't veer hard right on social issues is an SJW.

SJWism are pretty much dead at this point. It peaked about when they went after that scientist for wearing a dumb shirt, and it has been downhill for that ideology ever since. And now that all of the liberals are upset over recent events they're not taking the back seat while SJWs fuck around at the wheel.

But if you ask /pol/ SJWs are everywhere and slowly taking over the world. Because /pol/ is retarded.

>>93746168
I don't ignore actual facts, you just throw out irrelevant facts that don't mean what you assume they mean because not everyone is a paranoid idiot from /pol/.

Gee, I wonder.

>>93746174
That's weird because reddit was all over that one video explaining why marvel movies have such unmemorable soundtracks. The reason they gave is because the directors just saw the movie with the sample tracks and said "that sounds good, make me something like that to use." but the sample tracks are only ever generic shit or taken from other movies, and to make it not as recognizable you have to dull them down.

People in denial about his are fucking idiots.

DC's track for movies is shitty but at least they know the importance of a theme. They wrote one just for WW and I could have sworn I heard it before in a justice league cartoon but was surprised to find out it was something new. It fit the character perfectly.

Guardians of the Galaxy have their soundtrack, but Thor can't have something? Cap can't have a theme song? At least have something a little star warsy we can hum after the movie.

You know what I don't get?
That hip-hop and rap HAS to have a message or ELSE.
There have been entire generations of songs that don't have poinent messages, but the music the Black people listen, that's why they all grow up to be THUGS.

Then on top of that the kind of music you're asking about gets derided as SJW Tumblr trash.

Sure, these songs could stand to be less homophobic or sexist, but I'm struggling as to why any genre of music that becomes popular becomes the Sirens of Satan and the ills of the musical world. People said the same shit when black people went for the guitar and Jazz.

>>93734494
The fuck. Hiphop is way better these days. It was shitty in the 00's but it's fantastic these days.

>>93746313
You make a very valid point. Hitler, for example, listened to Wagner and Beethoven. When old people complained about not being able to understand Nirvana's lyrics, I would ask them to explain what the fuck a "doo wa diddy" was. My music collection (not counting modern recordings of classical) goes back to the late 1920's and not much of it has a message. Even Josephine Baker, who was an early women's rights and civil rights activist and even a member of the french resistance in WWII sang songs about "where did you get those great big eyes?" and the River Sienne. Fats Waller sang about people whose feet were too big, smelly fat guys, and I don't even know what the fuck "Abercrombie had a zombie" is supposed to be about. Cab Calloway sang about dancing, smoking weed, and getting drunk. Honestly hardly anything before the 1960's has any kind of social message outside of Gospel artists.

I will say that I have no interest in listening to people list off the things they own, brag about selling crack, threaten to kill people who don't bow down to them, etc but there's nothing wrong with songs about dancing, having fun, having the blues, being in love, and so on with no actual message. But while I do think that bullshit songs are harmless, I do think that crack-selling murder songs are a bad thing and rappers who actively seek to educate their listeners (Chuck D, Akala, Immortal Technique, etc) are on a higher level.

I should say, though, that crack rappers aren't really any worse than satanic black metal bands. I don't see any reason to believe in the lyrics of 187 any more than to believe Gene Simmons is really the god of thunder and rock'n'roll. The problem is parents not teaching their kids the difference between reality and fiction. No, Snoop and Dre did not kill an undercover cop in a parking lot at 6:45PM or that would be a taped confession and not a hit single.

>>93746323
Is not, is still shitty. You should still enjoy it, you like it and it makes you happy to listen to it. But don't pretend it has any value, is still extremely low tier music no different than Britney spears and still far from other styles of music and popular artists like James Brown.

>>93729579

>>93729579
Music is universal. Being that Wakanda is the most technologically advanced civilization they most likely have access to other countries entertainment. They also speak english. As for Marvel using it in the trailer, they are trying hard to reach for a demographic. Also I'm sure we will get more tribal type music in the movies score.

>>93746921
>I'm sure we will get more tribal type music in the movies score.
There's also a good amount of hip-hop, rap, and reggae in Africa. Brenda Fassie's music may sound distinctly African, but stuff like Big Boyz and Noni Zondi sound pretty much the same as american hip-hop.

So the next movie set in Spain should have a reggeaton song in the background right? They speak spanish, reggaeton is spanish, it's all universal.

>>93747690
>popular means you say the name to an old white person (farthest removed from a "rap fan", if it was country I'd ask a death metal fan) and they'll know it.

You actually think an old white person would know who the fuck Drake is unless they lived with a teenager or something? I barely know who Drake is and I'm 27.

>>93747809
Movie is set in mexico.

It's all Chilean thrash metal and argentinean hardcore... it's universal.

Fucking americans.

>>93747813
I have no idea who drake is. I'm not american but that pretty much proves that "big hip hop" stars are not that big.

>>93747766
African shit. Maybe not a rap song about being good at rap with a white guy as one of the rappers.

I say this as a white person.

They went and got the memerappers of the moment (theres a reason RTJ is always closing out fucking Silicon Valley) and a song with good beat.

And as others have said there are better rappers and rap songs to use. 80s/90s rap, or even later if you want to show his history as a character, have a bunch of examples of african celebration.

Even a song like World Tour could work with him being an international hero. Plus that beat is an all time classic. There are a lot of hip hop "old heads" who legitimately like comics. To embrace that history with classic rap (Luke Cage even did better by including the Wu) would have made sense.

This type of rap is made for liberal arts students.

>>93747813
Drake hosts award shows and SNL. Kendrick does not. Drake was on Degrassi, Kendrick was not.

I literally don't care about their music in any way here. In a comparison between the two Drake is far and away more "popular".

>>93747863
I sincerely don't believe you. Especially if you're going to say you know Kendrick Lamar.

>>93747863
You may not know who drake is, but I guarantee you if you listen to current hip hop for any extended period of time, you'll have heard at least one of his songs.

>>93747813
I'm 41 and I know who he is.
I couldn't name any of his songs if my life depended on it, though. I just know him from image macros on 4chan. To me, "most famous rapper" would have to easily be Tupac. I'm pretty sure literally every flea market in the country is still selling paintings of him right next to the paintings of Jesus and Elvis. That's kind of a different kind of famous from "most popular right now" though. The ones I hear about most in conversation are Nas and Jay-Z.

Also for any fellow old people who haven't heard it yet, the new Public Enemy album is great but you missed your chance to download it for free (legally, anyway).

>>93729579
Especially funny since most Africans loathe American blacks.

American blacks whine about slavery 170 years ago, while talking on their $700 iPhones and wearing $400 sneakers.

Yesterday, millions of African blacks struggled to eat and not get shot and don't whine a fraction as much. They think American blacks are entitled children and hate American black culture.

>>93747949
>Especially funny since most Africans loathe American blacks.
I'm African and this is false

>>93747931
I will say, I understand this view, It's mine as well to be honest, but it's about 6-10 years dated now. Jay and Nas were still the conversation when Drake was being compared to J. Cole and Wiz Kahlifa around 08-2010. By 2012 Drake had become the new Jay Z sales and play stats even eclipsing him in some ways.

I heard the new PE was pretty legit, as long as you know what to expect and aren't 12, but still have yet to check it out. If that's your boat Styles P and Talib have a pretty good, short project which scratched my itch for good hip hop.

Your tupac point is 100 percent correct. I personally like Biggie more but Tupac, I think, is likely the more worldly-popular artist. He's Ali levels of known in shitty little ghettos world-wide.

Funny thing is, while I talk about Drake being more popular I lost the point.

Had they used Kendrick to sell this movie it would have made sense. Blacker the Berry is maybe the blckest song released in a decade. Not really good for selling a movie but could have if they used just the beat.

>>93747885
Have you ever listened to african music? There is a lot of African hiphop. They, like most of the world, tend to cling to american music trends.

>walking home

>>93748285
Clearly an eminem fan if he says he hasn't heard a Jay-Z song and calls Kanye West, the most "popular" musician in the world in terms of coverage, the guy that married the armenian whore.

There is literally no way someone isn't being disingenuous to say they don't know the Kardashian name but know she's Armenian and married to Kanye.

And yeah, you have heard a Jay-Z song. You don't live on earth if you haven't.

>>93748331
It seems you tried to disagree with me but you don't really. Run The Jewels, even of the american hip hop artists (an art form created in the Bronx), are about as african as I am.

El is literally a white dude. And they both just talk shit but because Killer Mike is socially conscious two percent of the time outside of his music people love him.

Getting american memerappers when african rap exists is even worse.

I don't listen nig music, i'm not american, I don't know how to spell the name of the armenian whore, but for the record she is more famous in the world than her husband, that i only know thanks to south park. Kanye west isnt popular outside anglo countries and that is a stretch. Hip hop is niche, is not underground music, but is not that big.

Dude you know exactly the names of everyone you referenced. And I never said Kim wasn't more "popular" than kanye. You just simply decided thatg you were going to disingenuously present your knowledge in an anonymous space because you dislike them. You know who Jay-Z is. You HAVE heard a Jay-Z song.

She isn't a musician. Of which I said Kanye was the most famous. Which, you'll have to provide a more famous one for me to compare to. Maybe beiber? Maybe Drake finally at this point? Did harry Styles ever get to that level?

Hip Hop is niche to rap, but rap is not niche. It's simply become something uglier with Migos, Future and them. What do you listen to, Bjork?

Maybe you should have emerged from the mud earlier and not let it all happen, faggots. Just because our "tribes" fought for global ownership and left everyone else fucked doesn't mean your shitty little tribes wouldn't have done the same if they had the tech and scale (both population and influence).

Indigenous people everywhere would be singing a much different tune had they been the ones to use guns first. And they likely wouldn't have said "fuck it" to industrialization had it not been out of spite for the way "the white man" operates.

Strawman: the greentext

>>93750544
You could literally make the same picture with the exact opposite.

And in both cases you could even find "real" posts supporting your claim.

The discourse and rhetoric on both sides of the "debate" or "conversation", or whatever you want to call the racial conflicts in the US, is absurdly simplified, ignorant and generally dishonest.

Even when people like Cosby and Kendrick Lamar make a statement about the community taking responsibility they get viciously attacked. Kendrick had a bit more of a foot to stand on, being from the hood, when speaking about it so it didn't hurt him as much but the response was no less "HOUSE NIGGARRRR"-ish.

Nobody on either side wants to hear "it" from the other. There is absolutely validity in saying japanese people who were in internment camps and decendants of europeans who faced adversity in the cities after immigrating have a right to say chill the fuck out with the "privilege shit". And there's absolutely some validity to the black community telling them "the systems have fucked us over."

>>93750544
What thread did you get that from?

>>93752294
>You could literally make the same picture with the exact opposite.
No, you couldn't.

White people who criticize white people are considered pariahs. There are entire web communities dedicated to complaining about them, and calling them tumblrites or SJWs or some other shit.

Nobody wanted to here what Cosby was saying, because he's just repeating the same shit crooned at black people since the beginning of time US BLACKS, THE CRIME, WE LOVE STUPID GHETTO SHIT, STOP HATING THE POLICE. It's not anything we haven't heard before, and really doesn't answer anything other than US BLACKS...WE DA BADGUYS rather than actually acknowledge the various issues that black people in America have. No, they all don't end and start with white people, but nobody gives a shit about what black people have to say unless it sounds like they're blaming white people for being born or some shit they can use to bludgeon black people into behaving better.

Finding a black person to say what people have been thinking/want to say has been going on for generations.
Nobody dislikes Uncle Toms because "they speak "Proper English", they go to school, and they follow the law!", they dislike them because they cop into the idea that there's something inherently wrong with being black, and when people want to talk about their problems, people point and say "THAT guy says you're stupid! Case Closed!"

I can only think of two prominent people who have had anything to say about white people, Peggy McIntosh and Tim Wise, and they aren't exactly well liked.
Whereas people are willing to interview anybody off thee street to say US BLACKS ARE THE BADGUYS and they'll be lauded as a hero of the black community.

For one, I don't know where the fuck you're getting the idea that people don't listen to Kendrick Lamar, ESPECIALLY black people. He's one of those most popular artists of all time now, and most black people sing his praises.

Second, I don't know why you're comparing the two, because there's a clear difference in how they're getting their messages out there and what they're saying. Not to mention everything you've written leans more on guys like Cosby and Barkley, and there's been a fuck lot more of those guys than there have been people like Lamar

And lastly, if you didn't want me to talk about Cosby, then why did you bring him up?
