Black Radio Is Sickening/Poisonous

[3rdWorld]

Who exactly is the architect of the downfall of Black music? We need a name cause this is not good enough.

 

[BedRoomI'z]

This is how they take over black cultures. Get the ones at the top in pocket, only sign off on garbage, then allow the white artists alone to release real shyt. Then history books only show the white artists.

Then little black girls grow up favoring the lyrics of the justin timberlakes over the ushers, Young black men liking the music of the... what's that fat white bytches name? oh yeah adele, the adeles over the black rnb artists making hoodrat anthems and "i love him cause he looks good and got money" records and that shyt transfers into dating habits

This is equivalent to gentrification, just replace land with music. They do it with everything we create. Same shyt happened to country music(black created), rock music(black created), techno(black created), even DJing— name the top 10 earning DJs around the world, all white. Skrillex and shyt. Clean off all the Graffitti in NY but banksy shyt get promoted. I'm tired of this shyt

When I first heard it on the radio, it was and still is cringeworthy. My issue isn't the song itself but the fact that Usher recorded that to begin with. It's like he is too big of a star for something so sleazy. Michael Jackson's team wouldn't let him sing the Neptunes cuts that became JT's Justified so imagine MJ singing this song. You can't! Michael himself would be like now .

I do not believe in the conspiracies just yet. Urban radio is the way it is because black consumers love that shyt. Play something positive and watch you get hit with that . I stay with an 18 year old girl so I know.

So let me ask you: how do u feel about this poison being pushed PURPOSELY on the black community? Does it not make you angry?


Do u fail to see how influential hiphop is to the youth?

If we don't listen to it, they don't play/push it. It's that simple. They can push what they want, but at the end of the day they only care about $$$$$. And this is what the community wants to listen to.

The thing is that we've been CONDITIONED to only want to hear a certain type of music. Music with aggressive hard thumping bass and hi-hats. Content filled with violence, trapping, drug-selling and use, disrespect for women. All of this has been packaged to look cool to the black youth. They see images of Lil Wayne, 2Chainz, Rick Ross and countless other draped in jewelry, surrounded by expensive whips and big booty video chicks and think THATS what a man is. Little girls see these images and think the same. Kids are EASILY influenced and if these rappers suddenly started pushing positivity, knowledge and dressing like REAL grown men then i guarantee the youth would follow. Rap/hiphop is nothing but poison wrapped in fancy christmas wrapping

Somewhere a little girl is soaking this message up, twerking, while her parents are having their friends watch while they all say how cute it is...

The shift is so systematic, cats can't even see it in front of them..

I gave up on hip hop a long time ago.

Most r&b currently is just hip hop with a nikka singing an extended hook. It's not real r&b. shyt is poisoning our community.

Black folks have been conditioned to embrace negativity. It's so demonic.

how is this any different than when drake does it?


usher still GOAT male artist of the decade

Drake doesn't do this though.

He'll smash a hoe, he won't empower her

Personally, I can't listen to a lot of it. I take it in dosage. Your theory is compounded on 2 or 3 generations of this music we call rap. Young kids are exposed to it and now it can't be defended because of the internet. Kids have to be raised to value different things.

Wat do yall think we can realistically do? I think about this CONSTANTLY and it really saddens me. I wish i had a bigger voice to wake ppl up. I listen to the Rickey Smiley Show sometimes and all i can do is shake my head. Every song is negative trash and he has the nerve to throw in a "praise break" in the middle where he plays a gospel song

I was searching old threads and @Christopher browns made a thread bout the effect glorifying strippers has had on r&b/hip hop.

The tricking era is
August Alsina's my nikka but this shyt here


shyt is the reason we got 17 & 18yo chicks on IG claiming to be models. When in fact all them chicks is slored getting tricked on.

And the only reason they continue is because nikkas encourage it and boost they ego.
I dont mind the pics
Whores just need to understand what they are...call a spade a spade

There's nothing that can be done, breh. We're fukked as a community.

It'd take at least two generations to reverse a lot of the negative brainwashing.

Some cac messed up the lyric when he clearly says "get the gwap" and not "hit the ground".

that's like saying they shouldn't sell junk food in mcdonalds because its bad for you, there so many outlets to listen to music these days or to discover new artists if you don't like what's on the radio kim its not for you. As far as kids listening to this teach your kids about common sense and the difference between real life and entertainment imo

Lets be real alot of kids no matter what parents do will be influenced by entertainment. I think we as black people are more influenced by music then any race.

Not sure what ya race is....but growing up my parents did all they could. But I still did what I wanted and had to learn the hard way.
So the teaching can only go so far
