So because Solange and many others listens to rap and didn't resort to a life of criminality, that means gang banging/violent rap music has no effect on impersonable youth and adults.
The most popular genre in the world seemingly only effects black people in a specific way. Maybe it's not the music

Sosa been making industry / mainstream strides for a while now.
He’s been in his own lane musically and avoided all the shenanigans once leaving Chicago’s gang culture behind. Has had recent producer credits on blockbuster albums.
His biopic / documentary just got greenlit and is being produced by Kenya Barris.
Solange is tapped in culturally and peeps the motion right now.
Also, RocNation (Bey and Hov) have been a kinda cold this year in terms of cultural relevancy.
Looking for that Sosa stimulus to win back some of the younger folks could be a play too.

Yet white communities aren't dealing with the same issues

No, let's not blame a lack of parental support, access to Healthcare, school funding, or overzealous police and the system focused more on punishment and creating career criminals rather than rehabilitation.
We need to reduce a complicated topic like criminology to harsh lyrics sung by entertainers. After all, there were no black gangs prior to the first NWA album and it wasn't Ronald Reagan led neoliberalism that affected crime rates including the literal flooding of neighborhoods with drugs followed by an increased police presence.
Nah.
It was black rappers, rapping about being gang affiliated to talk about how the gang provides security and power to them in a neighborhood which has been purposefully targeted by crooked police and government policies meant to prevent black people from moving past working class.
It's black people's own fault that there's suffering in the neighborhoods these rappers come from. The cause can't be multifactoral without putting focused blame on the few black people who are able to use their skill at making music to escape poverty. No, this complex issue needs to be reduced to "ban gangsta and drill rap".
A lot of people aren't beating those "not black and cosplaying online" allegations whenever the topic of hip hop comes up.

Don’t even read all this babble. No one is pinning all the blame in the black community just on rap. It’s multiple factors, and yes music and its message can affect our youth.
Let that be Lebron or Stephen Jackson, this thread would be full of them "rap is destroying the fabric of time and space" comments.
Solange all on a drill rapper nuts and all of a sudden "oh this is different...she just enjoy his music"

That's too much thinking man. It's easier to look around you to figure stuff out, you shouldn't analyze anything else to see why something is happening.
I mean I think even black people show their anti blackness when this topic comes up. For some reason they think black people are dumb enough to just copy what they hear in music, no other analysis needed on their part. It's the same shyt as conservative black people thinking that black people are in the state we are in because of how we act
He does
