NESSA

‼️‼️‼️📣📣📣 @NICKIMINAJ exposing the smear campaign tactics that Jay-Z, Roc Nation, Desiree Perez did to her behind the scenes, is VERY similar to what I was told they did to @Kaepernick7 when Jay purposely co-opted Colin’s protest by siding with the NFL to help “their image” after they blackballed Colin for his protest. I called them all out YEARS ago and so many people were scared to say it publicly, but would tell me how they agreed with me privately. Smh Roc Nation apparently took $5 million a year over 5 years to bury the growing protest, AND specifically help them “move beyond the controversy around teams' unwillingness to sign Kaepernick.” Desiree even said "We love that everybody wants to be on the stage, that we've completely changed the conversation to fighting for it versus boycotting. We've come a long way." She got her pardon by Trump - no coincidence the NFL owners are his buddies and also donated millions to his campaign. I still don’t watch that league or whoever is performing at whatever game they have playing. #stillwithkap #FOREVER

Family forever @kstills READ HIS BOOK PLEASE "Still Growing Still Learning Still Me" OUT NOW. Kenny’s shares his experience protesting police violence alongside @kaepernick7 and how that impacted him forever. Kenny continued protesting until the of his NFL career. This is a snippet from our conversation about how Brian Flores — then coaching the Miami Dolphins while Kenny Stills was playing there — tried to undermine Kenny for protesting police violence. He did everything he could to agitate Kenny. It didn’t work. Years later, Brian Flores referenced what the NFL did to Colin Kaepernick in his own lawsuit against the league. The irony is impossible to ignore. Watch our full convo @HOT97 YouTube + HOT97 app Listen to my show weekdays 1-5pm on @HOT97 youtu.be/MmI3MLK-IEo?si…

Family 4L @KSTiLLS INCREDIBLE book "Still Growing Still Learning Still Me" is out now. It dives into Kenny’s journey protesting police violence alongside @kaepernick7. I learned so much about Kenny’s upbringing and how his life was forever changed after protesting. Kenny continued protesting until the very end of his career — the same way @Kaepernick7 and @E_Reid35 did. They never wavered. I can’t imagine everything they went through during that time, and even now. People rarely talk about the aftermath. I witnessed a lot up close and personal, and even then I still can’t fully grasp what it has meant for them.

The naked truth!!!! 😂😂😂 Thank you to my family 4L @KSTiLLS for stopping by my show to talk about his INCREDIBLE book - an honest book chronicling his time protesting alongside @Kaepernick7 @E_Reid35 during one of the most politically charged moments in history. Kenny continued protesting police violence until the very end... Please read his book "Still Growing Still Learning Still Me" out now. SO GOOOOOOD!!!!! So much to learn and you will see WHO all helped sabotage Kenny, Colin and Eric and ultimately the protest. I'm not surprised by anything because I saw all of it happen in real time. Support a real one and get his book!!!

@KingOfQueenz People do smear campaigns for less. They will do it just to get a text from a celebrity or a celebrity friend.

I mean I was told during this album that people were paying to run hate campaigns on certain negative narratives around Cole and his album and some pages were doing it. I actually seen it how they tried to create the negative convo, thats just how some people like to move 🤷🏽‍♂️.

Charlotte, y’all showed mad love 💿

Mannnnn. Thank yall for the love. For real!!! Yesterday I had daddy duties that came before album release celebrations. Today I got my old civic (with the brand new engine) a tour bus and some sprinters. In the trunk of my car is boxes of The Fall-Off CD’s. As a teenager I had copies of the Fayettenam Bommuh’s album that Nervous gave me to sell. I used to go up to the gas stations trying to sell the album to strangers “yo you like hip hop??” Was the beginning of the sales pitch. When I was working on this album I had the desire to go feel that feeling again, and that’s what I’m about to do. Trunk Sale Tour 26!! I don’t know where we bout to drive to, but catch me outside! Cop a CD from me or just show love. I truly appreciate all the love and the reaction to the music.

The one thing you don’t say to Mero when you need something 😆👀 @THEKIDMERO @nessnitty

@JayPRO689 @NICKIMINAJ You are wrong again because Colin did NOT break any law or team rule. He was wrongfully punished for his protest. And for you to be peddling their narrative to tear down Colin who LITERALLY lost his career and livelihood for his protest is beyond heartbreaking. Embarrassing

Who said I was happy about him not playing? He can protest all he wanted to but the owners are WHITE and they’re not having that on their watch. He had to known it would be repercussions for that…those owners are paying you to work and perform on the field. Whenever there’s a distraction in the team locker room or bringing negative light to the NFL Brand there’s a price to pay.

Hi everyone. If you’re wondering why I readdressed previous issues with Jay Z, Desiree Perez + Roc Nation recently, it’s because I saw @NICKIMINAJ sharing her experiences of dealing with similar smear campaigns from them and people questioning her. I believe what she said, because I saw them do similar manipulative tactics behind the scenes against @kaepernick7 when they partnered with the NFL on the back of Colin’s protest. The NFL used Jay Z as a shield to smooth over the fact that they blackballed Colin for his protest. There have been a looooot of people who think they know the story or purposely not fact checking the narratives they’re running with. Here it is again: Colin was wrongfully punished for protesting police killing Black people; systemic racism. Colin never broke a law or violated any league or team rule by protesting. Colin was NEVER offered a single job as a player OR as a coach since his protest. NEVER! Jay Z NEVER spoke to Colin before making his deal with the NFL. He only spoke to Colin AFTER and Jay knew that Colin did NOT agree with it. The conversation was left in a very bad place. I know this FIRST hand because I heard it myself. And YES, Jay’s team was specifically trying to discredit Colin behind the scenes to the media. It was disgusting. They could’ve left Colin alone and gone about their business dealings - but their egos couldn’t handle the backlash. So, of course discrediting Colin was part of their strategy. Colin filed his grievance only AFTER we all realized he was being blackballed. He used his legal right to protect his livelihood and career because it was clear the league was keeping him out; which is AGAINST THE LAW. He hoped his grievance would protect other protesters, and it did briefly. Ultimately the league pushed Eric Reid out after he set 2 franchise records his last season - never to play again. Colin, a Super Bowl Quarterback, was NOT protesting his employment. He fought so hard to continue his career because he loves football. And when it comes to the NFL workout in Atlanta, Colin did not partake BECAUSE the NFL’s workout waiver had language that would waive his future employment rights, which is NOT a standard waiver. AND they would not allow it to be open to the public (even though previously they said it could be). AND they would NOT let Colin’s team film it - so the NFL would have been able to misrepresent how it went. They even tried to add that same verbiage into the CBA, only for the NFLPA to reject it. COLIN’S DOC WILL HAVE RECEIPTS.

You are wrong. Colin was NOT benched. He had 3 injuries AND 3 surgeries. ONCE he was healthy he started AND finished as a starter. I know you have to tell yourself lies to feel better about supporting that league and all the powerful players that helped Colin be blackballed. Shows more about you justifying them blackballing Colin for protesting police killing Black people. It’s disappointing. Colin led his team to the Super Bowl and two NFC Championship games. Even in his final season — without a stacked roster — he still outperformed many of the QBs STILL playing today. In 2016 in ONLY 11 starts, Colin had a 4:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio (16 TDs, 4 INTs) and a passer rating of 90.7 💛

@nessnitty @NICKIMINAJ Ever noticed Kap started protesting when he got benched. When he was a starter playing well none of the social awareness was brought up. Although I feel bad for how his career ended but he got himself blackballed out the league.
