Kendrick Lamar’s new album, “DAMN.” dropped Friday. On his first track, “Blood,” he samples a “Fox News” segment where Geraldo Rivera and panelists critiqued his performance of “Alright” at the BET Awards. It’s a completely tone-deaf segment that fails to understand Lamar’s goals, audience and context in which he’s delivering his message. But worse, it just warps Fox News into more of a joke, especially among young people, criminal justice reformers and anyone who likes political art. By sampling the segment in his latest track, Lamar rightfully ridicules “Fox News” and reaches millennials quite easily.

Fox should have figured this pattern out by now.
