We have to stop praising black rappers that really murder and shoot other black people.

Rappers can’t win

If they on some positive shyt nikkas call them corny

If they talk some street shyt but don’t really do it nikkas call them fake

If they talk some street shyt but actually about it they need to stop killing and being a street rapper

If they talk some love shyt , they get called simp and soft

nikkas complain about everything so at this point rappers are just giving the listeners what they want and support :manny:
Shows their own lack of principles. They wanted poison, so I gave it to them Lol.

Cant we blame both?
Absolutely. The Labels and management winning regardless of whatever happens with their clients, even death. They’re leeches and profiteers, but also the food source. If they faced the same consequences as their clients, including death, they’d straighten up their act and not take risks effectively being a part of the Black market (as in organized crime, specifying because it’s a racialized conversation)

They’re not facing:
Rico charges
Conspiracy charges
Aiding and Embedding
Money Laundering
Racketeering
Drug Trafficking
Tax Evasion
Murder charges
Or Grand Theft charges

Like many artists have.

If we continue to live in an inequitable society where there is poverty placed on us, the issues spoken of, or “promoted,” in the music are naturally going to occur, proliferate, and eventually be commoditized, for what is in all intents and purposes, mutually beneficial for the young Black men creating the music and the old white men promoting it.

Otherwise there are the old adages of
You only make it out the hood through rap, crack, or playin ball.
And
You’re either going to end up dead or in jail.

When those are accepted as realities at any point in life but especially at a young age, it becomes ethical to profit from commodifying that experience. It’s the path with the least harm they can do with potentially the most to gain.

Not only that but Rap in all it’s forms is descendant of Blues which is :merchant: self snitching, Devil worshiping, violent, sexually deviant music itself that follows the EXACT same premises. There’s more to be aside about the links between both genres generationally but the only difference is we’re living through the evolution of one right now.

Then explain the folks who arent even from those types of environments going out of their way to emulate the behavior then :unimpressed:.
Oh dont worry, I have all day to hear the typical, played out excuses, mental gymnastics and reaches. Once again, if youre a big fan of black death music, just say that. All this extra shyt isnt even needed. "Let me c00n in peace:sadbron:" on repeat, with remixes:unimpressed:
What’s your roots breh?

The same dudes who think that images of gay people on tv, and in movies can influence young black men to become gay, are also saying that showing the images glorifying young black men being gang members and killing each other doesn't infuence young black men to follow that same lifestyle. :francis:

If people who arent from that environment influenced as strongly, how you think it influences those who are? Thanks for proving my point :obama:
It's really this simple. You've even got people that don't even speak English in other countries trying to live out what they see in rap videos. It's only the dregs of society in other countries that emulate the happenings of drill and gangster rap culture, but sleeper-koons here are fine with that shyt being the face of our culture.

African american, why?
Interesting. Alot of (not all) black, but non AA‘s tend to not care about the violence that goes on with AA or even some of the roadblocks we face. That response from android 18, seemed like one of those responses. Idk, at times feel like we alone in this. Like you have others that side more with white supremacy, than with us.

Having these discussions on here is like having a discussion with Cacs about racism, a discussion with women about Double standards or a discussion with Republicans about Gun control :francis: . Nothing but deflecting and Juelezing. It’s useless:yeshrug:

Where do y’all think black folks would be if we weren’t singing hymns about being free? That repetition being sung had an effect. Just like the genocidal/fukk these hoes hooks we sing has an effect. Also what we read and watch.

Why do y’all think they gave black enslaved people an edited Bible or didn’t want them reading?

It's pretty sad how this site is supposed to be a a predominantly BM space and yet these type of topics always end up like this.

Let it be about how terrible modern BW are, how down bad simps can be, how trash single moms are, and then it's:
