Reason First: Candace Owens Uses The Game's "Assassination" Song To Shade Eminem

The Game dropped the song "The Assassination Of Candace Owens" on his new album, possibly alluding to Eminem and others' criticisms of her.

Sliding through a metaphorical minefield, rapper Game has used Candace Owens' name in his song. Is this cloutchasing? Click bait? One would hope. This is an all out war on content creators ‘round the world.

Jayceon Taylor felt emboldened to name his song “The Assassination of Candace Owens.” She reacted with wide eyes and a sense of irony and welcomeness but also playful derision.

In the past Eminem had taken shots at Owens for her alleged betrayal of Foundational Black Americans (FBA). While he has been given a pass by blacks for over two decades.

Candace may be one of the worst examples of a human being, but she garners subscribers and views as if her words are manna.

To use the Game’s song is definitely a sarcastic way of giving him a stamp and a slap in the face at the same time.

Anyone who knows the extent that Ownes can go to get a few hundred thousand views in a matter of hours can say she’s in it for the attention. Again, that’s great, but at what cost?

Her sensibility of being on the far right strikes a cord with anyone who wishes to be a YouTube Channel operator. She courts controversy, like a gutter collects rain. She says she’s aware of how the song is a reflection of our current times. Anyone and everyone can be used for publicity or notoriety.

Owens has no moral compass and is completely clueless on most matters such as reason, individual rights and capitalism. The Game and Eminem lack the mental might to engage with these ideas as well.

But it seems as if Owens should know better. She is a pundit who spouts off vitriol that has no lasting effect. She trots out ideas as if to animate them but her words are like grawlixes on a comic strip.

In all of this, there seems no real winner. Owens lives her days praising Ye for his Nazi antics while saying she upholds America and its values. Certainly, they don’t correspond with this nation in any way.

Marshall “Eminem” Mathers might look like a darling here but just like Taylor and Ownes, there is no sense that he knows what America means. Maybe he has a slight understanding of freedom of expression. Maybe. But to break down property rights and the capacity for the individual to know rational thought, he would have to take a seat.

Taylor’s choice to name a song like that is reprehensible. To suggest political violence against anyone is totally out of the question. Yes, the metaphor is apparent, but it doesn’t distract from the title which is obviously flagrant.

Would he like it if Owens released a video where she claimed that Taylor had succumbed to his wounds from a street shooting akin to the one he experienced where five shots rang through his body?

This is why the culture desperately needs the ideas of Ayn Rand. And not anything watered down or reflective of anything subjective. This needs to be a clean, clear example of her words as she wrote and said them.

In this realm of unobjective and ugly actions by people who lack the moral backbone to stand up for what is right, there will be a reckoning of folks wishing to better comprehend a way to uplift thought and banish force in all human relations.

Owens seems poised to become even stronger in the wake of her friend Charlie Kirk’s demise. The Game even recognizes him in the lyrics to the song itself.

Owens is just displaying that she’s going to get even more show time for the song. Because it is so mesmerizing, this current culture of fast dollars for thinner content and thicker skulls, proves that an ethical revolution ought to be on the way.

When rappers make songs hinting at the death of a public figure, that only poisons the well or morality.
