My question to the ones blaming rap is this;
If rap was created in the early 70s. What was influencing black crime before that?

Kids weren't tattooing tear drops on their faces to look cool in the 70s. Gang culture and the violence and disregard for life that comes with it has been normalized by the music.
I'm not that big a fan of the "music causes violence" argument either
but if we're gonna say it has 0 influence at all, then apply that everywhere
Kill the we need more positive images of ourselves on tv argument, stop saying we need more black male teachers as role models etc etc...
Stop cherry picking what has influence over people out here to fit your narrative

This is even more of a reason to call out hip-hop. it's become a parade of negative stereotypes about black pathology for the sake of White Entertainment.
It's all a game. One can say the biggest C00Ns are the ones wanting equality. I never played the White people game nor tried to work outside the lines with it(crime) cause I know I would never be judged like them..so why play the game? You see on IG from even celebs photos of 2 criminals, one white one black, committing same crime and bruh getting larger sentence. No shyt..since before most of y'all we're born I knew that shyt..I get negged alot here cause I think we should do better. We can't win in a game that's designed for us to lose. Young people go to work. Raise your children better than you were. We come from better stock. Cause I'll be damned if I'm ever treated like a white man or teach my boys the same

So there were no young men committing violent crimes in the black community Pre-1970?

There are still grown men to this day that love/idolize the movie Scarface from 1983.
Terminator was literally marketed towards kids.
GTA San Andreas is considered the most iconic game of the franchise
Black kids watch movies too
It's not about what is getting talked about more. Influence is influence.
If you think movies and TVs can't have an effect on back kids the same way music can, then you are either misinformed or choosing to ignore it. Like I said before, rap originated in the 70s, what was causing crime in the black community before that?

my guy I didnt say movies and TVs dont influence them...but in my opinion music is the biggest influence..im telling you from experience working with black children since 2015..
Americans in general love violence and shyt thats why Scarface, Al Capone and them mob movies are still revered to this day. We're already born into a country that loves this shyt, but then you add people who look like you with tons of money and fans, and they influence kids more than anyone else..just a product of being in this country.
Americans in general went from having pastors and community leaders like the panthers as role models to these drugged up rappers, pill addicted cacs, athletes and scammers.
As for what was causing homicides in the 30s, 40s, 50s, and 60s I dont fukking know because I wasnt around back then but I bet it wasnt as much as it has been since the 70s

Basically co-sigining Crime Bill 2.0, because, "it said gang violence, not black people" (the same thing that fooled Black folks in 1992)

40/50 years ago, "Black-On-Black Crime" was considered an important and internal black community issue.
White media did not cover "Black-On-Black" crime. White politicians did not care about crime within the
black community unless its impact crossed over into white areas.

I stay telling people that this is a term and discussion i've heard my entire life and I'm damn near 40
it wasn't until the Obama era that the whole "black on black crime is a myth" argument came to be..
