Obama wants to see social issues address in hip hop. I agree 100%

Social issues are addressed but sadly they won't get radio play. Take NaS's "Daughters" as the perfect example. The song barely charted and didn't get the airplay it deserved. Also just cause a rapper spits some street sh!t doesn't mean it's not conscious. "F*ck The police" and "Cop Killer" both had conscious messages behind them even though they were violent songs. But to Obama's point, I think in the mainstream yes, more social issues need to get airplay. There was way more balance in the radio in the 90's.

this nikka can't be listening to the same shyt i am. nobody wants to hear about the ills of society for entertainment on the radio all day.
Didn't Killer Mike just drop RAP Music? didn't that fake political activist fakkit Lupe not put out FNL2?
all we need is more balance, and shyt like clear channel to stop deciding what gets played on the radio.

Nobody listens to the radio?
this is the biggest myth ever...if nobody listens to the radio, why do funk flex,Rosenberg,The Breakfast Club and Big Boy all have top rated radio shows?
you might not listen to the radio, but there are more folks out there that do listen to it than ones that dont.
WorldStar took the place of MTV, nobody checks for new videos on the TV anymore.

Kendrick Lamar
Frank Ocean
Both album of the year in their genre
Channel Orange was NOT that great... people are just scared to admit the truth about the album cause they don't wanna get into any arguments about not liking it cause he came out as a gay man.
dude literally said he was gay as a publicity stunt to sell records.
Which RnB album was better?? Miguel and trey came close but not better not channel orange

I would like rap to be more self conscious rap, not mere conscious about everything except you.
Im tired of the pious self righteous music from guys like Lupe, Talib Kwali, Mos def and the like.
We need more people liek the Kendrick's and the Lecraes, and the Big Krit's etc. that instead of makin themselves to be some sort of people above the problems they complain about they are conscious about they're own problems and they expose that so they can allow the listeners to walk with them and find the "solution" together
Fck these other self righteous ass rappers... Conscious rappers are lame
Give me some self conscious rappers plz :D
