My theory is if Black americans build an economic base that isn't reliant on drugs or criminal offenses then allusions to said criminal offenses would disappear in our music.

You disagree?
Nope, but remember capitalism has no moral basis just winners and losers.

Your theory is kinda wack then my man because being realistic most black people aren't doing illegal things to make money anyway so I can't agree with this at all.

Feel free to elaborate to legitimately prove your point.
Nothing to expand on its all there. I shouldn't have to explain to you why the development of something like Hip-Hop wouldn't have been possible amongst impoverished asian communities.

Because 95% of hiphop artists came up from "negative" backgrounds.

Drake doesn't rap about shooting nikkas because he never had to shoot a nikka. Lil Wayne, Gucci Mane, Young Thug, Kevin Gates, Future, Migos, and all them other dudes rap about what they know.
so you agree that 95% of mainstream rap is negative right? and you dont have a problem with that, KNOWING the color of the people that controls rap right?

FOH no I wouldn't because only somebody that's white and or stupid as fukk would believe that. I'd believe what I actually see which is regular black people just living not this bullshyt bizarro world you live in where everybody shooting and killing. Can't believe people actually agree with you. Stupid nikka acting like nobody listens to rap and does good. You're lost and hope one day you get it together.

Yup, cause this started with hip-hop not centuries ago and would totally go away if hip-hop didn't exist. :comeon:

You're falling right into the trap of white supremacy whereby the expressions of the few can be used to justify prejudice against the entire race. You're essentially justifying racism as a response to art.
Chris rock put it very well
“Here’s the thing. When we talk about race relations in America or racial progress, it’s all nonsense. There are no race relations. White people were crazy. Now they’re not as crazy. To say that black people have made progress would be to say they deserve what happened to them before.”

nah, imjust not used to conversing with someone that curses and name-calls as much as you. Most of the posters i go back and forth with about this subject comes off as more mature and we're able to have a healthy debate even tho we disagree. You just come off as angry and immature:yeshrug:

YOU wouldnt, but there are people right here in Amerikkka that has little to no contact with black people EVER. The t.v and music are there only impressions of black people. You are too blind to see that there is a war on the image of the black image.

Im never angry you just wish I was because like I said that makes you think you're better than me or some other weird shyt you into. This isn't a professional setting its online going back and forth with a nikka named phonzi. Stop it you just trying to have something to feel you are "better" and more classier than me about. People like you aren't fooling nobody because if you were so fukking mature you wouldn't play obtuse and switch up people's words unless you really are stupid. :yeshrug:
