A couple of weeks ago, the Harvard student paper The Crimson asked students what they thought about a rapper’s performance at the free Yardfest concert.
When the reviews turned out to be lukewarm, the editorial board played the race card.
According to the linked article in their editorial, The Crimson editors make their accusations of “racialized” music judgments based on a grand total of … two students’ less-than-stellar critiques of rapper Jeremih’s concert (all the while three others had positive reviews!)
One of the negative reviewers called Jeremih “Jere-mid” due to his “unfulfilling” performance, while another (who admitted she was unfamiliar with his music) merely said this year’s Yardfest headliner was “worse than last year’s.”
