Dudes in here making excuses and saying it's no different than white kids dikkriding GDs or bloods or whatever:mjlol:. The main difference is the mafia where (is) racist af against black people. John gotti is literally on video calling black people n1ggers. They used to purposely sell drugs to mainly black people to keep us subjugated while they thrived. There were literally mobsters who used to drive around and kill random black people they came across. Alot of black men have no sense of pride and it's truly embarrassing when you break it down:francis:.
And Christianity be having Black ppl fall under white men from Italy.

The mafia was a Hollywood invention

its semi true...
...but thats also the account of someone that would never speak highly of them because of the world he comes from.

the mob also had their paws all up in the early days of hollywood...
...they were shaking down a lot of those people

because youre reading way too much in it...
...its really not that serious.

a large part of hip hop culture revolves around making your money in the black market...
...so its only logical they are going to take their cues from people that are well known for it.

has nothing to do with racial pride or lack thereof

Even though Meyer Lansky blackmailed the fbi into going after black people instead of them

Racist motherfukkers

Worshipping criminals is stupid. They used to push their own people out of their own businesses. They had hit squads that practiced on Black people like they were deer

They got whitewashed just like Samurais did

Its more than taking cues.

There's definite idol worship. The racial issues come in when you idolize a group who actively and verbally express their disdain for a people.

The Italians are historically one of the most racially hostile white etnic groups towards black Americans.

Theres a clip of a reporter interviewing John fukking Amos outside of the courthouse at Gotti's trial. He said he didnt know him but really liked the way Gotti handles himself.

James fukking Evans Sr.

Decades later theres footage of Gotti screaming at his grandkids for "acting like ******s" as casually as he would if they forgot to take out the trash.

Its okay to respect someone for how they handle themselves. Idiolize a group who think you're simple, degenerate two bit crooks is another thing.

New York rappers get vicarious thrills through mobsters like everyday people get vicarious thrill through rappers.
.
Its all fantasy and escapism.

Yo. What the fukk?

The way Math was talking to her, its like he was regressing to his "hobosexual" days and looking for a place to crash.


I just think he need to keep it hip hop…..or at least centered around black issues or our community…… what don’t we know about chick, they had a whole show that bio’d them…..what’s the point

Everybody loves organized crime in America because most of our communities are rooted in organized crime, even the white ones.

The Jewish gangsters just got smart and made all the best movies about the Italian gangsters to make them the face of organized crime and take the pressure off the Jewish gangsters that made all the real money off the crimes themselves as the top of the pyramid, and they also made all the real money on the back end selling the stories.
