Post Mike Brown: Hip Hop doesn't feel right to me anymore

[10:31]

It's like pit bulls. Sure there are some lovable pits. If you see one off the chain headed straight for you do you take time to try and snuggle with it? You hop your black ass on a stranger's car. ASAP. If you had a burner you'd pop the dog as soon as it was within 15 feet. Even if it was coming to lick you and have it's belly rubbed. Niqqas have created and championed this thug image. Once you dress up in the thug uniform and start screw facing passer bys, why act all shocked when they assume the worst? Sure there is racism and maniacs and serial killers and all kinds of weirdos but niqqas HAVE to know they are being provocative by tatting AKs on their necks. Pop Rap is perpetuating this idea that young blacks don't give a fukc about nothing... cause those are the lyrics to EVERY song.

What the fukk are you saying breh?

People train pitbulls to be vicious. We see vicious pitbulls on tv. When we see a pitbull we are cautious and scared. This is how people see nikkas, is it right? Yes and no. Is it racist? Not necessarily. It's the same as you see a half naked girl, you think thot. Is she really? Maybe, maybe not, but u thought it. We all have preconceived notions and prejudices. Even "thugs" are cautious when they see "new nikkas".

I could see you make a case for the second one, but please englighten us all on how making music about strippers is somehow "negative" or "bad"?

What if I dressed up as a doctor and started walking around? Motherfukcers would expect me to be able to help of someone passed out. If I tatoo some tears on my face, fly a flag in my back pocket, and start Crip walking, people would expect that I was a gang banger. If they think that, then they react and overreact accordingly. You could say that I have a right to tatoo an AK on my neck without being judged... but hopefully everyone here knows better.

Research the history of minstrel shows in America and how blacks in those times were some of the biggest supporters of these acts. There where even instances where blacks outnumbered whites in the audiences at minstrel shows. There's a chapter that dissects the psychology behind that in the book The New Jim Crow. It also draws a comparison to Hip Hop, the vast majority of what some would now consider a modern day minstrel. I suggest everyone read it for some perspective on the issue.

Just because someone speaks on the reality of a situation does not mean they are being negative. Do you not understand how context is relevant to this debate, and that you can't make blanket statements like that against artists and come off logical?


There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing and be nothing.
