Honorable Dr. Umar: "Hip Hop hasnt done shyt for community in 50 years!!"

[Pazzy]

Why yall still listening to this scam artist? He needs a foot up his ass for thinking that hes fooling anybody from seeing different.

So what was nikkas crashing out to before this? Look shorty. I'm from East NY Brooklyn. I REMEMBER what the hood used to look like before hip hop turned "gangster". Do u? There's nikkas who u look up to right now who would be prolly dead or in jail without Hip Hop.

Now the hood mentality has spread far and wide instead of festering in the pockets of poor neighborhoods in certain major cities.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Snoop has done more damage to the black community with this his "bytches aint shyt" and "crip" rhetoric that he promoted in his music for 30+years.

Don’t move the goal posts. Umar & bozos like you said they contributed NOTHING to the black community. His football league helped numerous kids stay out of trouble, and in this case a few even made to the professional level with the potential to earn generational wealth.

Movies are movies. We know what's on screen is make believe. Music is more personal. With rap, keeping it real is one of the mantras. They are supposed to be presenting reality. Telling their life stories.

No. All of it is entertainment. One is visual. The other is not. Those movies I mentioned were made to portray what it's really like in those hoods. Those movies actually put the world on to Bloods and Crips. NOT hip hop. U DO know that news and media used to purposely skew and ignore what was going on in the hoods of America right? Which prompted more hip hop artists to tell the story. And bring it to light. People just ain't like that mirror. There's a clear discernment from reality and cartoonish shyt but if u got responsible adults in ur life they can tell u the difference. If u dont have any responsible adults in ur life that's the biggest issue right there. Not the media. The world ain't perfect. The world is filled with fukkery. Without anyone there to guide u in the right path. There's higher potential for setbacks or failure. Hip hop or not.

 

[AAKing23]

He’s right

 

[IVS]

Rap is the new crack. And the drug dealers and strippers have hijacked it and mutated it. And they've taken it and used it to glorify Da Streetz and women who operate in or adjacent to Da Streetz.

Those movies didn't glorify. Kids weren't watching Menace II Society and wanting to be O-Dog. Rap (once gangsta rap took over) glorified the streets and all the crazy shyt that happened. Black kids that weren't raised in those neighborhoods felt compelled to emulate rappers.

Snoop and his gang glorification put those kids in bad situations where they need mentors

 

[JNew]

Is “hip hop” supposed to?

Like was rock supposed to do something for the white community?

Jus shows you his fan base and followers are mindless zombies.

Crack and welfare destroyed the black community well before some hip hop music.

That’s the thing…no. especially not if you are referring to entertainers.

Ask this government agent what the hell the school at ?

Not having a strong family structure put those kids in bad situations...stop neglecting bad parenting.
