Meek Mill Billboard Interview: "I'm scared to be political"

[Axum Ezana]

cause he's not a true hip hop artist.

people lump these sub rap genres into hip hop.

hip hop gave black people a platform to speak on society and political issues of their surroundings.

yall expect trap,gang,mafioso,braggadocio and pop-rap guys to give u real hip hop. thats like asking a drying machine to cook ur food.

but i don't believe most cause they don't seek out those consious hip hop artist, they just wanna criticize mainstream rappers when they already know what its about .

the corporate record companies can push pop rap all day but its up to you/or u letting ur children, to accept it.

Why, because i think Eminem rhymes words well? Yall are reachin like a mothafukka. If u think im white, ive been tryna put together a big "ban bet" thread. Loser gets banned for an agreed upon amount of time. I need more participants. Everybody is turning my offer down. Do u want to take my offer since u think im white?

What do you produce for black people?

 

[KOohbt]

Double

I've always said that he should stick to music and maximum instagram without any captions. It has not done shyt for him but got him locked up, been labelled a p*ssy by millions of fans and on.

He has said some real shyt in interviews, he was talking real shyt on the one with Sway. It was about how you can't judge street dudes strictly from their actions. How most street dudes are mentally unstable just like what they label crazy white people that murder people and shyt like that. That's the type of shyt he can talk about, cause he's obviously got a lot of realness in him.

But his sensitivity and social media fukkboy shyt

Artwork. I draw and sell pencil-drawn portraits of black historic figures from time to time. Is that a good answer? That was my my main side hustle b4 i started driving trucks. People loved it. Is that a good enough "production" for ya?

you know exactly where rap comes from and the subject matter that some rappers bring to the genre
you act like every rapper has to be on some militant shyt
latching this new armchair "pro black" shyt that millenials are on nowadays to every rapper is so lame and lazy, you're basically saying, since you are a black entertainer, your job is to be a puppet to whatever political agenda I'm feeling at the moment
if it isn't other races putting us into some thug box, it's underachieving nikkas dumping all the responsibility for their communities on what is the black equivalant of Taylor Swift or Ed Sheran

Lol@ comparing meek millz to Taylor swift and ed Sheran ...

You act as if there is no in between the polarity of black upliftment and black genocide, what a foolish mentality you have

Can you name me 10 white rappers ,singers, or DJ's that promote white on white genocide pls?

Why dont you just cut to the chase and say you are ok and support hearing about black genocide , I would respect you for that

I dont care what white people think but you're worst than the white people who put all blacks into the thug box, you support the music that plays a part in the cycle of us killing our selves, and somehow you feel comfortable arguing with me about it

As if I'm in the wrong for meek admitting he's scared to be assisinated for political awareness in his music. Imagine if he was held accountable and showed that same fear for spitting about black genocide

Oh look, it's one of these guys.

Yep. Just wanted to know if you were doing tangible shyt to help the community and you're not, like I thought. I feed people. You should do the same and really help. There's food deserts all around the countries hoods and I grew up in one of them and want to change that. I can provide info if you wanna really do some shyt, then your posts will change from hip hop hate to "what can we produce as black folks to keep make ourselves less depending of cacs."

 

[KOohbt]

Ban bet accepted or no

Naw. You could just be a raving black lunatic. Wouldn't say c00n cause your not c00ning your just wasting all of this time debating on obvious negative effects of music but never see you in any threads talking about tangible solutions to our problems. It looks super suspect.

@cloudbox is gonna post songs from the 70s and 80s

I dont understand the hate for Kendrick, I really dont. Future is the second coming tho, wtf

Who hates Kendrick? I'm simply stating that Cole is more on the conscious wave than Kendrick is.

 

[pon]

When has he ever tried to be anything else? He basically admitted he's a pop rapper and is still getting shyt on.

Y'all say dude is looked up to by all these cats for speaking street shyt, then you criticize him as being a puppet for Jews. Which one is it? At least y'all could be consistent with your bad arguments.



Funny though, because you and other no reading, no attention span, ADD lames like you, skip right over all of the legitimate political discourse on how blacks are treated in American society. You skip over it in order to be entertained, then complain when the entertainer fails to acknowledge the larger struggle.

Most people have no depth to them and look to parrot the opinions of others.

Don't get mad when your rapper heroes don't provide you with an opinion.

Stop the foolishness b, what political discourse am I skipping over that makes it ok for me to be ok with and for you to be ok with the agenda of black genocide that continues to prevail in our music?

Are you really arguing this?

As if I'm in the wrong for meek admitting he's scared to be assassinated for political awareness in his music. Imagine if he was held accountable and showed that same fear for spitting about black genocide

Dude, you're basing a part of your opinion about me on the fact that i think Eminem rhymes words well. I really cant take YOU serious.

And besides:

So I'm curious. How were black people living when rappers were more politically engaged?

Like, lets say, during the Public Enemy/Ice Cube era, or even taking it back to "The Message."

Following your logic, I'm imagining that blacks were living in these inner-city utopias. Enlighten me.
