This is what Noname is talking about when she says she doesn't want white fans at her shows. They just take anything in black culture and make a total farce of it, which diminishes its power as a rebellious force.

No, she's done other interviews and made comments about it. She's clearly frustrated by her overwhelming popularity with white people when she's trying to make music for her community, but also trying to balance the evils of living in a capitalist system.

Honestly, I was a bit worried when I read the title that this would be like some of the other recent "political" ERB episodes and feel like a vessel to spread a message (however true or sincere), but man was I glad to be wrong! It felt like both sides meaningfully traded blows and made good points about each other, and that's super impressive!
