Andrew Schultz Responds to Kendrick Lamar’s Comedy Diss
When Kendrick Lamar’s lyric, “Don’t let no white comedian talk about no Black woman, it’s law,” made headlines, the internet was buzzing with speculation. Was it a general commentary, or was he targeting specific comedians? For Andrew Schultz and his Flagrant podcast crew, the bar set the stage for an epic response—and they delivered in spades.
Their latest podcast episode—marking the first since the lyric’s debut—dedicated over 30 minutes to dissecting, roasting, and unpacking Kendrick’s controversial statement. Here’s a breakdown of the most notable moments.
Schultz Takes Aim at Kendrick’s Hypocrisy
Schultz didn’t hold back when pointing out the irony in Kendrick’s stance. He mocked the idea that a rapper, whose genre historically includes lyrics objectifying women, would target comedians for their jokes. Schultz sarcastically praised rappers as the "most respectful group" when it comes to women, quoting lyrics like, “B****es ain’t nothing but hoes and tricks,” to drive home his point.
“It’s wild for Kendrick to act like comedians are the problem here,” Schultz joked. “We’re over here saying our wives are annoying, and he’s making albums with dudes who have serious abuse allegations.”
Comedy as the Great Equalizer
A central theme of the episode was the idea that comedy works best when no one is off-limits. Schultz and the team reaffirmed their commitment to making fun of everyone equally, stating that “everyone gets these jokes.” According to them, comedy thrives on its ability to poke fun at all groups, cultures, and individuals without discrimination.
“We’ve traveled the world doing this,” Schultz said. “People of all races, religions, and cultures come out specifically to see themselves and others roasted. That’s what brings people together.”
The Kendrick Roast: A Highlight Reel
The crew went beyond just critiquing Kendrick’s lyric. They veered into outright absurdity, riffing on everything from Kendrick’s rumored comedy project with the South Park creators to hypothetical scenarios of him losing a rap battle. At one point, Schultz hilariously imagined himself using Kendrick as a “body pillow” in jail, pushing the boundary between satire and ridiculousness.
“He’s trying to make rules for us,” Schultz quipped. “Meanwhile, he’s performing at the Super Bowl—the Super Bowl of beating the sh** out of women!”
The Hypocrisy Problem
The podcast also touched on Kendrick’s past collaborations with controversial artists. Schultz accused Kendrick of selective morality, calling out his willingness to work with figures like Chris Brown while positioning himself as a protector of Black women in his lyrics.
“Being on top is hard,” Schultz admitted. “You’re always under scrutiny. But if you want to call the shots, you have to be consistent—or people will call you out.”
A Love-Hate Finale
Despite the relentless roasting, the crew ended the episode with a mix of humor and genuine admiration for Kendrick. “We love Kendrick,” Schultz concluded. “We just hope he understands that comedy isn’t about malice—it’s about connection.”
