This is why they constantly feed us distractions, if we're going to be happy in dire straits anyway may as well give us more distractions. It's obvious if we are left to our own devices without their input we will excel. So all the self depreciating music that is the most marketable, white owned sports teams that contain a vast majority of black men, the decline of rnb that display black love the rise of trap music without much competition.
When you add the pieces together it's alot. The more we struggle the more creativity we produce for them to steal and use to market as popular culture which is then mass marketed around the world. Black people in America are culture machines and America would be nowhere without it. But the whites then feel inferior because blacks and other ethnics worldwide create culture and it's the one place they just cannot dominate so they market and profit off it instead.
Meanwhile keeping us churning out that culture. Tom and Fred from accounts will come to a migos concert sing about bytches and hoes and separate themselves and their women because the bytches and hoes are black women not white women.
And the cycle continues.
lots of people put in work but don't feel the need to be arrogant about it. But I agree that it can be a byproduct. And the line between confidence and arrogance is a thin one, and more importantly it's not the same for everyone. Without even mentioning the differences between countries/cultures.
