Jack Harlow’s “get darker” comments on the New York Times Popcast led Twitter to rename him with increasingly hilarious alternatives.
Jack Harlow just submitted the craziest hype material to Twitter in months, and it honestly breaks his heart that the internet is at its peak.
The Louisville rapper said during an appearance on The New York Times’ “Popcast” that his music “became more black” while working on his new album, “Monica,” and yes, that’s exactly what you’d imagine.
I blame black women for offending Jack Harlow’s ego😆🤣😂That’s why this fool got away with it. Can we tell the truth 🤔 #JackHarlow #Blacker #Monica

The comment sparked an absolute wildfire of jokes, memes and creative alternative names that made people nervous.
Jack Harlow attempts to explain how he delved deeper into R&B and soul music rather than retreating into what he calls “safer” territory like some of his white rap contemporaries.
He says he’s “very politically sensitive” and understands why other artists make different choices, but he wants to go all-in on the black music he truly loves. question? This phrasing is absolutely disastrous.
Twitter didn’t waste a second. People started renaming Jack Harlow with increasingly hilarious replacements to highlight his whiteness and the whole situation.
We’re talking about “Talcum Motoki! Hunk! “As Tony’s play!” Tony! “Tone!”, “Musiq Rothschild”, “Jew Hill”, “Anthony Scamilton” and “Mos Absolutely Not”

The creativity is unparalleled and honestly wish Jack Harlow had a sense of humor about it as the internet has been going on for over 24 hours.
There’s a conspiracy theory going around now that he named the album Monica because when you say it fast, it sounds like “my n####.”
Whether this is true or just speculation on the internet, this is definitely adding fuel to the fire that’s burning Jack Harlow’s ass.
