Kids today have access to way more music than us. They don’t have to just listen to the radio or what cd’s they or their friends had. They literally can stream any song ever recorded and can discover new artist daily.
How long are we gonna keep pretending hip hop culture as it is, is negative and a terrible look for the black community?

and how do they stream? devices dont just pop up under their pillows like the tooth fairy. yall keep trying to avoid the main intervening factors and variables lol
if i have a kid and i come to know they aint wrapped too tight (as if lol), they aren't getting a device with data and they aren't hanging with their friends at any time they want
too many parents have random unplanned kids they aren't ready for for the long haul, get tired, and just end up satisfied with the kid being "happy and healthy" even if that includes having them sit in the house being babysat by thesmart phone and xbox.

I was just responding to bruh that there is more diversity to the music kids consume than we did
What’s the solution , you wanna ban all hip hop since you saying it’s no wiggle room ? You wanna not give people the same choices that we had growing up. Wasn’t the murder rate higher back then.

lil Durk performed at Howard university today. Howard is a prominent hbcu. That how ingrained this shyt is in our culture
Exactly
Colleges weren’t paying Nirvana to perform for new students/homecoming.
Imagine Harvard paying Eminem to perform back in the early 2000s

and? i was piggy backing off the point. that's how conversations work lol. if what i said doesn't apply to you specifically that's ok.
but yeah in these conversations you might see people posting videos or something like that of a little kid rapping or wearing what some may consider hip hop apparel as if they just acquired these thing out of nowhere .... "see guys, i told you rap is influential
".You made zero fukking sense and you quoted me

Eminem was getting played on Rock music stations during his run. The same stations that would never even think to play songs by Black rappers
And cacs of all ages basically lost their minds about Eminem and crowned him the king of music and you had Black rappers being ridiculous and crowning him the best rapper ever.
When if he were Black they'd give him the same respect they gave Canibus. Which is none.
They'd just call him a cornball battle/backpack/punchline rapper and keep it moving.

my guy, with me it's always less about the poster and more about the points made. get over yourself lol

Studious one
Change names, like change clothes; stay a fly girl
How long are we not going to pretend…. Fixed that for you
Basically, parody material.
Stooping to new lows just to remain cool is how you get middle aged gangstas with health problems and grey hair, still talking tough. Started from the Crack Era and the changed values that many black folk had like materialism and attention whoring.
But those tracks are over 30 years old
Show me one positive track, that has gotten popularity, that was made within the last 12 months?
