Maybe they should stop fighting and paint houses and do carpentry in their free time instead of gang bang.

But that would be logical and make too much sense...huh

Where are they learning these trades?

The area where I'm from, where Keef and Fredo is from, is one of the most destitute areas in Chicago.

Where I'm from, the difference between those who turn to the streets, and those who don't is their family upbringing.

We all know hip hop is just entertainment to cacs nothing more nothing less.

But i could post endless rap videos from Chicago teens with lyrics about killing their rap rivals and then doing it in real life.






Preciate the vids however, didn't see how this is the fault of hip-hop. From watching the story was so much deeper than rap music that it was shameful to see that be the focal point of the interview. Not the plethora of issues creating the environment and molding the mindset that its perfectly ok to murder a man based soley on what they said. Its quite possible (probable perhps) young Jojo would hav met an early demise if there were no rap songs in existence.

It had nothing to do with the music, it had to do with his activities in the streets.

I won't be putting out sensitive info however.

So we going to act like there are NO painters, carpenters, plumbers, hvac people in your area anymore?

Well maybe if the teens stop making rap songs about killing people they will come back....

Nothing to debate, argue or have dialog over keep up the excuses for people making rap songs about killing each other like it sounds cool.

No need to put out anything sensitive.
I may not have conveyed my thoughts effectively but I'm in agreement w/u and i have no personal knowledge of the situation. The video alone was evidence that music played very little if any part in the killing

Whose incentivizing them too?

Are they all making songs about killing each other, if not what kind of promotion do those other (positive) records get in comparison ?

Who employs the end users who are making the songs? Surely the songs have to be propagated and marketed in the mainstream to have the impact you claim they do...

Leave my thread brother

do you think the music helped or hurt the situation?

:lupe:

Having seen one of these situations first hand, blood was being spilled with or without records.

Young boys out here real reckless.

The records that come out is basically what MF Doom was describing with Rapp Snitch Knishes.

I'll also say this, the stuff that is put out on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram is far worse.

I won't be posting these accounts however.
