Post Malone Says Fans That Are 'Looking For Lyrics' Should Avoid Hip-Hop

Charlamagne awards Donkey Of The Day to Post Malone for telling people that “if you’re looking for lyrics, if you’re looking to cry, if you’re looking to think about life, don’t listen to hip-hop."  

There have always been white artists in hip hop but Post simultaneously profits from the culture and disrespects the culture. Post Malone is describing his own music with his comments and doesn't consider artists like Kendrick Lamar, Big KRIT, Big Sean, and more who are making meaningful hip hop. His comments are also a slap in the face of artists like Scarface, Tupac, Biggie, and Ice Cube. 

Post publicly apologized for the comment and blamed the fact he was drunk for his statement but a drunk person speaks a sober mind.
