POLL: Are You Against Black On Black Violence, But Still Listen To Music That Glorifies It?

[Diunx]

Doesn't matter, the fact is rappers are getting killed, actors arent.

yeah it does matter, they aren't getting killed because of their music, they are getting killed because they are into shady shyt.

 

[R=G]

It depends on what someone deserves in any situation.

They're being killed due to the content of the rap music..

They are getting killed because of music though. Nobody is pressing Robert DeNiro because he played a gangster in a movie. nikkas will get pressed for talking tough on a record though.

I enjoy the cautionary tales and street advice. Assists in keeping the head on swivel. Rappers basically giving the whole game away on record.

Rap went from being a product of the environment to shaping the environment. Its lost all of its original creativity and is now just one huge scheme that markets black death and obsessive materialism.

How can rap shape the environment when the same chit been going on in the environment for decades.

Ion wan no nikkas who you catch i want the @Voice of Reason i paid fo

I don’t listen to a lot of that rah rah ass shyt. All this shyt corny. These lil midgets out her scared to fight and terrorizing the streets with hammers while these nikkas who barely touched the streets make the sound track that normalizes and desensitizes our minds to it.

We’re one of the few communities in the whole world that go thru what he go thru when it comes to violence and most of it is by choice.

Rap influences the culture and the culture influences rap.

Rap is not a production of environment anymore?

Again, they aren't, they are getting killed because of the circles they move in, Dre and Snoop are not getting fukking killed because they left the hood and that life behind.

quotable


after drill rap and opioid rap started having real effects on the youth all the excuses went out the window. The comparisons to mafia movies probably made sense in the 90s and early 2000s but now days kids are really being influenced by the music and acting on it in real life

It goes both ways. If it didn't we wouldn't see suburbs dudes coming from good homes trying to emulate hood dudes. Rap has had a profound impact on how black people perceive themselves and the world around them. It started off as an expression of the conditions created from the crack era. Since that time it has become more and more commodified to the point where it appears to be one big marketing ploy for brand names and the black struggle as a form of entertainment.

OP has gotta be an agent or something

How many times are you gonna make this same thread I could've sworn you make this type of thread every 2 to 3 months

 

[GodinDaFlesh]

Yes, I can differentiate art from reality. Might as well not play violent video games or watch violent TV shows and movies if you can't differentiate.
