Will Pusha T, 45 years old, ever give up his cocaine gimmick?

Can't quote because The Coli is dying 
But nobody in here arguing that Pusha is versatile, or more versatile than Future. Just that most dudes who knock him for the coke bars turn around and jock rappers who talk about the same shyt 95% the time too. They single out Push strictly because he beefed with rappers they stan
Push rap about jewelry, sports cars, hoes and fashion too, not just coke, guess he versatile

No, he probably won't.
Hip-hop is a large reason why black men are largely viewed as child-like by society.
Just look at what the majority of rap music is about and then look at some of these older rappers and how they carry themselves:
Rap music keeps it's listeners and the image of the black man in a perpetual state of adolescence. Rap music is a large reason the WORLD looks at black men as the least responsible, least likely to be husband/ good father material, etc.
I disagree with people who say "if you grow out of hip-hop, you were never hip-hop in the first place".
That couldn't be more untrue. I'm 38 now and I've been obsessed with rap since I was 10 but now as I've grown as a person , more specifically a black man, I just can't sit and digest the majority of content in rap. Rap music is probably like 10% if my listening now.
I like Pusha for his lyricism / pen game but his content and most content in rap period doesn't sit right with my spirit any longer.
But am I a hypocrite tho? Because if Pusha was to switch up his style and go the Nelly route for example, I would be the first one to laugh, point my fingers at him and say "nah bruh, this ain't it. Go back to ya old style"
Someone has given you a complex about what YOU find entertaining and you felt the need to project that on to ALL Black men. Stop. A lot of the people who you think are looking down on you listen to rap music.
Or if not they're entertained by something that you find vapid.

A lot of deflection in here to avoid acknowledging that Pusha T is the all time worst cocaine duckteller even beyond Rick Ross at this point. Unspeakably corny
It’s really not that good bro.he keeps getting a pass cuz the music is really good
You literally named 2 more things than how many Push ever raps raps. For me the gimmick isn't his age, is that he raps about coke all the damn time. shyt got old for some people.
Hip-hop is still growing. The ish is pushing 50, so for us who would be the hip-hop generation, we are aging with it. There's no pre-set direction to where you go after you are no longer the young kids on the block. Dudes aren't going to turn 40 then all of a sudden start becoming worldly. Oh, he's 45, he should be talking about uplifting the community. If he didn't care before, what's the odds of them caring now? The guys y'all listening to in their 30s now, 20-25 yrs ago would be considering rapping about nonsense and unimportant things to the elders 20 years ago, as well.
Stop trying to put an age-limit on subject matter. Now, if it's no longer for you because your tastes have changed, cool....but everyone tastes doesn't change. Let that man do what he does, and enjoys doing. Hell, educated, successful, 40-year old black women still listen to ratchet music.

Pusha sent a tweet out a few days ago that his music is to be enjoyed like watching a mob movie. It's not real it's just entertainment.

This. The only people that bring this up as a negative are contrarians.
Sounds to me like you don't understand the importance of "image". Seems like black men are the only group who doesn't care about their collective image as a group.
No other group of men are constantly having their image demonized and criminalized to the world like the black man. If you are a black man yourself, you should know this.
The black man's image has been reduced to gangbangers, thugs and drugdealers. That's damn near the DEFAULT SETTING of a black man in this society.
Your post suggests that I care about what others think. I don't. I barely interact with "other's" period. But that's my point .....I have a bigger picture. I think about us as a collective and I ABSOLUTELY DESPISE our collective image.
Sad that I seem to be in the minority.
These whiteboys and Asians who listen to rap don't have the same image problems as the average young black male.
I want you to take a look at this video:
It's a whiteboy prank video of him fukking with people at an ATM.
If a black male did this same prank the cops would be called or he would even be killed due to paranoia by the person he's doing the prank on. The whiteboy can get away with doing pranks like this because he's not viewed by society as a "savage".
Rap music has destroyed our collective image. Crazy that we as black people don't see this.
