Who?

Commercial rap has been negative since the late 80’s

And “get money and get fly” music is shallow as well

True but she gonna come across as a old rapper hating because she has no motion.

She doesn’t have the current clout to really effect change.

The reality is now you have murderers making music on the side and it’s not the other way around.

it's called life. if you ever watch the 2 min intro to the news all you will hear is death and oppression.
unfortunately a lot of black people have been duped into pathologizing it when black people speak on it/seeing it as a "bad black rapper" thing
a lot of simple minded folks out here.

That's the problem though.

Artists can't express their opinions on the state of the game, without being written off as "old", bitter or "haters". Or if you're not selling mad records, then your opinion doesn't matter. It wasn't like that back in the day. Better believe that ignorance was manufactured by labels to protect the money they make off the negativity and ageism.
