In The 80's Was Crack Really The Cool New Drug To Use?

[Wild self]

i think being in chains for 400 years was a little worse.

After selling poison to ya own black folk, going back in chains isn't so bad after all. Cats were selling shyt to their moms and the aftershocks of that (gangsta rap, b*stard children being the norm, glorification of being a prison bound underachiever) is felt to this day. Now People hate positivity of any form and embrace negativity cause it's "real" and has a edge. Being raised in single mother household in turn created these feminine ass simps that plague the social dating scene and ended true masculinity as you know it.

Crack single handily turned the black community to a matriarchy, as well as other outside forces.

I would not say it was an it drug but it was not something that people would have really looked down on. Crack really effected the 25-34 crowd the most

More like the 28-50 year olds. The 25-34 year old had to grow up in an era where you had to be something with an edge thanks to the oldheads selling that bullshyt for some cars and some p*ssy from hoes.

I wasnt born, but the inspiration of this thread is a tweet I saw from some of my favorite producers




thats sad to think a bunch of teens/college students were using coke/crack casually not knowing it would become one of America's most addictive and dangerous drugs...

what yall think?..did users really have no clue about the drug's danger?

same shyt with this xanax, lean, molly movement. shyt has been going on forever before the 80's nikkaz fukked with other shyt still. The point is kids always feel invincible, like they the first to discover shyt while completely ignoring history as the cycle perpetuates. I don't fukk with nothing but weed and liquor.

I keep seeing these I just tried molly posts all over the net since that song...

u can read stories about how people realized that shyt was getting real when the fiends got turned up and violence exploded.

Crack fukked up the black community more than racism

but crack was the end result of the cia sending coke to the hood...

they used up the black community for profit. It was really just a new tool in a long standing bigot war against the community.

I've never met an Mdma fiend, so it's a shytty comparison. Not to mention the fact that molly isn't a new drug. Smart dumb nikkas strike again

I ran an afterhours club for almost 2 years... I seen shyt I could never imagine and yes they exist.

i dunno why everyone thinks they are the exception lol... before that I was in high-school during the rave scene prime era here in Canada. I know it ain't the same shyt but kids was dying every weekend at some warehouse party and walking around sucking pacifiers all day, shyt was disgusting.



Had a homie that was selling crack, I never thought he was using... But he had this one connect that had the best weed but he would only trade it for crack and not sell. I thought that weird cuz he wouldn't give me the link. Everywhere we went downtown fiends approached him and knew him by name. I lost touch with him for a while and the next time I saw him dude looked like Common after Erykah fukked him up. He was wearing some huggy bear shyt from starsky n hutch and had lost weight. This nikka was asking to come by my crib and smoke and I thought something was off about him. Then one of our friends ran into him on a bus... sitting next to a crack head hoe the nikka tried to hide first then move away from her but she promptly made a scene exposing him. "oh u don't know me now because u seen ya friend, what? u ashamed or me? who puts the slippers by your bed, feeds and clothes u huh?" she was just drilling him on the bus. He never came back from that but it confirmed it, dude was using

No, crack was not "hip".

Crack was for those people from the '70s who liked to do coke at Studio 54 and all those types of clubs, but were getting too old for that shyt in the '80s.

They tried to keep the party going into the '80s with this cheaper high that allowed them to keep up, but it backfired.

Now, selling crack may have been hip, but it's not like Run-DMC and Eric B. & Rakim were gonna be all like, "Hey man, let's smoke some crack" on their records and shyt.

Crack fukked up the black community more than racism

The crack epidemic was a PART of racism.

From the C.I.A. helping Nicaraguans like Oscar Danillo Blandon to help " The Real Rick Ross" flood inner cities with cocaine, while at the same time, handing out Draconian sentences out to people who sold it, to ignoring the fact that 80% of cocaine/crack users at the height of the crack era were White and not using that as an excuse to come down in White communities.

It didn't exist in a bubble outside of racism, it was just another chapter in the 400 year long book of racism.

After selling poison to ya own black folk, going back in chains isn't so bad after all. Cats were selling shyt to their moms and the aftershocks of that (gangsta rap, b*stard children being the norm, glorification of being a prison bound underachiever) is felt to this day.

The black community was already a matriarchy. Crack was different because it took mothers out of the home and kids had to be raised by their grandparents, which led to a lot of the bullshyt we see now.

Obviously when it came out people didn't kno how bad/addictive it was gonna b



Ain't Molly just MDMA? That's the same shyt as ecstasy, rappers talked about poppin E all the time around 2000
