Often transphobic too which really feels like shooting themselves in the, uh, foot. Should be an easy dunk but they can’t do it!

"The reasonable listener of 'Not Like Us' would conclude that Lamar is rapping hyperbolic vituperations."

“Not Like Us” is replete with profanity, trash-talking, threats of violence, and figurative and hyperbolic language, all of which are indicia of opinion. A reasonable listener would not equate a song that contains lyrics such as, “Ain’t no law, boy, you ball boy, fetch Gatorade or somethin’, since 2009 I had this b**** jumpin’,” with accurate factual reporting. Accordingly, the reasonable listener of “Not Like Us” would conclude that Lamar is rapping hyperbolic vituperations.
