Funny how Keef fukked up their money, but people still promote Keef like he is something of any worth.
What's scary is Jews use Anti-Semitism to hide from the suffering they have inflicted on black America.
Public Enemy is the last group to really address it.

Well shyt you may just have Travi$ Scott's psyche figured out
He's a known piece of shyt in the industry.. real shallow type dude. But he does have his artistic worth
Exactly, it's a white supremacist dream come true.
I don't even think it's that. I literally mean that he doesn't realize that he's wrong and he's being earnest. I saw a lot of these types in college. What people forget is that we're all still American and still subject to the same programming and lack of education. Race is not taught properly in America despite the fact that we're hanging out with people of different backgrounds. A guy like Travis Scott is from a place where 40% of the households have a median income of over 100,000 and his mother worked for apple and his father owned his old company (if I remember right). You take a kid like that, give him a typical American education and divorce him from the struggles of black america and he ends up looking at African-Americans the way most Americans do--largely responsible for their own problems. They see it as a mentality and that dressing a certain way is an expression of that mentality.
But the thing is, if you notice..he still says "we" are our own problem. The interconnected fate of Black Americans (that has always existed regardless of socioeconomic status) still remains within him. Most people like him are not bad guys, they just don't know any better and it's better to educate someone like him instead of yelling at him. People don't respond well to be yelled at in most cases, and being separated as a minority is senseless. @Boesky this is what I meant by ignorant, I should have said uninformed.

I disagree to a point....if a person's life majority consisted of those events, then that person can express their life through which ever genre of music they feel comfortable in
there are mental levels to music and life. based on that persons core audience...that artist needs to stand up to his responsibilities in regards to his own audience/followers ...carrying on...if an artist raps about his drug dealing days...as a man...not even an artist...as a man who KNOWS his music is being played to an audience..he should also include the past present and future regarding his experiences
rappers now will only tell you their past and their present...i sold crack then and now im rich now...and it's as simple as that...once this becomes a fad in lyricism the shyt needs to be addressed because we started with no rules in regards to music...but look at the shyt we are in now.....
but to sum this shyt up..jayz ross jeezy....are examples of what im talkin about....and i disagree to a point because as long as we have other artist that will give the audience a 360 perspective...eventually if we support them....artist like jayz ross jeezy will lose their power...its comin to a point where we have to say fukk the music and start paying attention to what the fukk these nikkas are saying better yet not saying...the balance is just fukked up
serving a very vital function that helps maintain the system of white supremacy: the glamorization of dysfunctional behaviors
It is and the fact that in 2014 is still a time where c00ns can thrive, just boggles my mind.
The crazy thing about it, is that the images of the media are used to profit from pain. Now a bunch of broke rednecks see that blacks are all thugs or c00ns just fukks up race relations even more.

Travis Scott, like other bum ass rappers, try to brainwash the masses and make the few intellectual rebels feel bad about themselves.

Okay.. What DID he say then? Maybe you can articulate his philosophy better for me...That's not what he said man
They reiterated the exact opposite of what you claim in this title over and over again
Granted I hate Travis Scott and a lot of his music and he's a fukkin idiot and knew he fukked up, this isn't what he said at all, click bait
I been saying, By no means that you gotta wear baggy clothes and act thuggish, but just don't dress to suit white folks only.
