Trigger Warning with Killer Mike

Killer Mike broke society down a notch with his blunt, dream shattering sense of humour. Twisting each scenario into some real modern day 2019 truths.

I found the series imaginative, hilarious and informative. Which I am not sure how I learnt something whilst simultaneously feeling uncomfortable whilst also feeling amused.

Laughed out loud often, quote worthy moments and addictive topics seeped in controversy. He understands people and I enjoyed watching.

If you love Killer Mike like I do this show is for you. Sadly some people don't understand what he's trying to teach but the man is brilliant and amazing at breaking down complex themes into real world terms. I love ya man and I hope there's a season 2. FYI I'm not into rap music, classic rock fan here, I'm a fan of Killer Mike as a human being. If you want to make America great again we need a few hundred million more Killer Mikes. Mike talks common sense and common sense blows away political correctness every time.

Prior to this showing up in my Netflix feed, I had no clue who Killer Mike was. So I went into this show with absolutely no preconceived notions of me enjoying it, I didn't go into it with any sort of bias towards or against Mike himself. Now that I've seen the show all the way through twice, I think I'm allowed to say that this show is absolutely hilarious in the way it both presents itself and how Mike goes from real life issues to pure unadulterated satire. Not only does he make 'on the street' satire like Eric Andre, he ACTUALLY goes through with things and sees them through till the end, pushing for something joke-like and actually doing it all the way to the end. It's something that I've never seen done before. Only a 9 out of 10 because I wish the episodes were a touch longer and just a bigger season in general would be nice, the more content the better. Definitely recommend!

Started strong and at first felt a little bit like a successor of the masterpiece that is Nathan for You. Completely fell apart by episode 5 though. There are some of the least likeable people i've ever seen anywhere in these episodes. Literal nazis and narcissists. As the series went on, the hope someone would punch Mario to the face became stronger and stronger. All in all a pretty offputting experience.

And at the end of the day, sadly Killer Mike was a big letdown as well. He raises some great points about racial injustice. But I went to read up on him, and apparently he's an NRA loving gun-nut these days. Pretty pathetic.

This isn't simple satire nor some borat prank upon the low hanging fruit that is the general populace of 'Merica. This is Killer Mike sharing a wealth of perspective on hidden subcultures and how they might interact in an imaginary world... ours. No really, it's a fascinating look at just how unique american cultureS are.. and possibilities for communication and overlap. It's very smart, incredibly brave and funny as hell. I don't know how you don't binge all the episodes in one long day.... but I hope that there are more coming.
