But there is no problem. This is something you merely conjured up in your imagination.
I like listening to Devin the Dude and Brotha Lynch Hung for example sometimes who have some ignorant ass songs morally speaking but at the same time, I'm not looking to these dudes to provide enlighten social commentary or anything beyond the music. A lot of these dudes, not the two I mention in particular, as you said make this music based on their lifestyle and the problem I see is when people want to excuse and make rationalizations for their real life manifestations of their music that they sometimes engage in. I still think its a problem. Hell, Kodak Black is in prison right now and been in some shyt several times already that if I had any influence or say, he should probably stop doing
There is a third option by the way. You can make these songs but you yourself can realize its about just the music and still lead a moral life, in general. I say in general, because no one is a saint but you know what I mean. There are plenty of dudes like that out there too, if not most. I shake my head at dudes who do get popular and money off the ignorant shyt but STILL continue to live like they never had a dollar in their pocket. Despite what I think of their music, i think that shyt is messed up and just.
How can you rationalize the music of which that real life manifestation inherently comes from and not end up rationalizing the "real life manifestations"? It's either you're for it in some way or you're not.You're trying to remove the 2 which is not really consistent to logic. Infact you're rationalizing your own cognitive dissonance by disregarding the human behind the creation of this music.
But I'm still perplexed as to how the music is "ignorant" to you? Especially as it pertains to Kodak. Kodak Black is a human being with three dimensional feelings and dreams. why does it all get compounded to being a barbarbian buffoon? Because of all the things you secretly enjoy from it?
Are these songs not inherently filled with introspection?

You late fam I'm done with that dude. This stupid shyt derailing the thread. If ole boy want to keep it up outside the thread he can hit up the inbox. Otherwise ain't shyt to talk about. Grown men out here trying to save another dude who claim peace but talking like they some bout that action dude. Straight sucker loser shyt but some of its my fault and I'm done with it if its not about this topic.Oh shyt now it's Phil Vs. ProBlack.
Most people do but it doesn't need to be put on public display how you don't like brown or dark chicks just to say it...just do you...

I agree but why? That's my thing I think the why is born of insecurity. We have threads about dark skin women ain't nobody saying the same "it don't need to be put on public display" The reason y'all don't say that towards dark skin stuff is because y'all feel its an underdog complexion when if you just focus on those who,like,you you wouldn't even notice esp when most on here love to claim they don't even hang around other races. One way or another you are going to get dissed complexion is just another reason. It is what is and helps makes things easier IMO.
Appreciation is one thing and we know dark skin black women are underdogs compared to lighter skin. Just like short men compared to tall men.
For example if a chick likes tall men she doesn't need to go around screaming I hate short men just pursue those men you like. And if she does to me she's an attention whore with her own insecurities.
how is he a c00n because he prefers lightskin black chicks instead of darkskin chicks?
Coli logic crazy.
The man said "i'm already black, don't need no black bytch" - he literally doesn't like his black skin he feels he needs something lighter to make it okay. That's called self hate bro. That's a c00n talk.

Man I look at people in general as "attention whores" or worse if you out here talking the preference stuff in general no matter if you take the popular or unpopular opinion. I guess that's where I differ from you at I don't switch my stance on what is popular/unpopular esp on this issue.
IRL this isn't as much an issue as on social media IMO.
We both know this isn't true. Lets not lie to ourselves here. I've known dudes who grew up in the suburbs, never wanted for anything, and had two loving parents but want to "fit in" and try to live and act like they're from the hood. I wouldn't say the rapper is to blame though. Its the responsibility of the listener to live a certain way. I thought I made that distinction clear. Also in those cases I wouldn't even entirely blame the music. Peer pressure and wanting to fit into an image is the main culprit but at the same time, lets not act like its not at least in SOME part influenced by certain images in our media. I think it would be dishonest to act like it has no effect.
Look breh, I'm not going to go back and forth because I don't want it to turn into one of those things where its just two people going back and forth in the thread and making up most of the thread with a debate.
You called me out and I responded, but you still didn't answer my question as far as applying your logic in regards to my first post which is that just like you want to come at me for having my own personal morals and standards for human behaviors but despite that, listen to some music, not necessarily kodak black, that espouses stuff like that may be counter to my standard and beliefs, I can throw the same logic back to you in the sense that you must advocate for no hypocrisy on this issue and therefore, believe that someone who has moral standards or moral objections to certain things talked about in some music should not listen to said music without committing some sort of sin. Therefore the only people who can listen to such music carry that outlook into their real life which means you have no moral objections about the things that say...Brotha Lynch Hung talks just to use him as an example again, in your real life otherwise you're a cac or some unforgivable hypocrite.
Also finally, while you can cherry pick, if someone says something like I'm already black and don't need some black bytch, then that isn't the most enlightened thing to say is it? To more directly address your post, Never said he was a bad person but he isn't the first dude I'll think of who I want my daughter dating either. I'm not denying the "3-D nature" of these people's personality but at the same time I'm not going to sugar coat and put a thin intellectual veneer over my belief that some behaviors in a real life context are still worthy of being denounced and looked down upon regardless of my musical preference.
The person who I responded to was commenting that despite his disrespect towards black women, that a lot of black women will still go to his shows. All I was saying is that I think everyone acts out on this hypocrisy to some extent. These girls will get on twitter and take a high ground how they find it so disrespectful but still show up at his show. The only issue is when these ideas and actions become part of real life. Not simply ideas and words in a song.

What are you talking about? Are you saying no ladies say they don't prefer light skin men? Maybe not like dude in the Op but never say it I don't believe that at all.
