If you black and from a post apocalyptic post industrial bombed out city like Baltimore, Philly, Camden, Gary, Newark etc. it’s hard to reason that you some how have the cards stacked in your favor.
There are neighborhoods in Baltimore with a 70%+ unemployment rate. Maybe because free trade made its so you could shut down all the well paying factory jobs and move them overseas and just throw nikkas in prison for using and selling the drugs planted in their environment and become modern slaves of the state in prison working for 25 cents an hour. Some of y’all ain’t never live in the projects or no back blocks or no real gutter ghetto area and it’s obvious.
When I was like 9, where I was at kids my age was all the way off the porch hustling drugs in the street because they had to provide for themselves because their home situation was so fukked up.
The entire genre of Rap exists so black men from the inner city can have a lane to articulate their experiences as well as get it out the proverbial mud. No one wants to hear cacs like the one quoted in the OP rap.
Wonder why? Because no one trying to hear that tone deaf ass white privilege intersecting with came out of the right white vagina at the right time privilege.
