Birdman Gets Question On What he Is Doing For The Community & The Content Of His Music

Dap? What dap?

Hip hop isn't my culture so I'm not criminalizing my culture. The rappers criminalize the music by rapping about participating in selling drugs, gun violence, and gang affiliations.

Right. Well hip hop isn't my culture either.
Rapping is African culture
Music is African culture


It's used to report, spread knowledge and history, entertain, motivate, serve as a political medium, exercise the brain, war etc... Since. Africa.

We don't make guns. We don't grow Cocoa leaf. Gangs are protection from the police and hate groups.

Gun factories promote gun violence sir.

We use guns we abuse the drugs that are the product of the cocoa leaf. Gangs kill more black men than they do crooked cops. nikkas lost.

Problem is I'm sure if Birdman signed 100 conscious rappers, 99 of them wouldn't make it past the gatekeepers of the soundwaves even with the new internet age. A guy like Chance gets all the underground push in the world but nowhere near the same notoriety as a Future. If We Are The World dropped today with the same allstar lineup, it would be recycling bin jokes by 3PM PST.

Facts, everybody wanna turn up

Gangs do kill more black men than crooked cops.
But cops don't protect black men, so gangs are there for black men to govern and protect themselves.

Amongst guns and drugs that are flooded into the community to create a black market. Literally a market where you can start a business and sale illegal things to people who can't help but want them and make money in a place where you can't make any money, because nobody hires felons...

Of course your a felon. Every law and policy created since 1980 has been made to arrest you for being you.

Your so lost nikka it's sad. Your really brainwashed to think like a white man. You have know idea what your talking about. You have no knowledge of your current surroundings let alone history or culture. I'm trying to learn you tho. So don't get disrespectful.

ask him why he killed yella boy

 

[Rekkapryde]

The balance of hip hop is beginning to readjust itself!!! :PantherBless2:

Notice when the balance left as well.....when a certain group of people took control of it...

Naw bruh you're so lost it's crazy you just used gangs as an example of black men's ability to govern themselves. That makes black men sound incompetent and inferior because gangs do not govern themselves in a civilized manner they kill each other. So holding gangs up as a representation of our culture makes our culture look inferior and incompetent. You think exactly how a white man wants you to think.

If black people are capable of doing better show and prove.
