While the line was about Andrew Schulz, fellow white comedian Gary Owens takes advantage of Kendrick Lamar’s new track, “wacced out murals,” to gain attention on social media. Following the release of Lamar’s track “wacced out murals” from the new project, Owen shared his thoughts on Instagram, stirring up a wave of backlash online. Kendrick’s song contains the following line: “Don’t let no white comedian talk about no Black women—that’s law.” Owen joked, “If that’s law, that makes me a criminal.” Known for his past marriage to Kenya Duke, a Black woman, Owen’s attempt at humor seemed to draw more ire than laughs.
Naturally, Owens jokes would receive backlash. Social media erupted with criticism. Instagram user @realruebenwood remarked, “He probably shouldn’t have said anything since his name wasn’t mentioned.” Others, like @violapatrice94, dismissed the comment as tone-deaf, writing, “This ain’t the flex he thinks it is.” The sentiment was echoed by @sarkimberly, who added, “Gary Owen truly believes because he married a Black woman he gets a FULL PASS, and it’s concerning.”
