disclaimer: I love Snoop... Loved his last album "Bush" (you can search the album thread from a few years back.. and you'll see my old ass all up in it jammin.. it's one of the best albums in one of the best years this decade)
but with that said....
Hip Hop at it's core is a rebellious culture. A culture that thrives off the art of expression and youth. Thanks to the current information age we have the pleasure of being privy to the over exposure of some of our favorite artists..
We get instant access to their lifestyles, gimmicks, personal lives etc etc
Now when the heat was on last year in Cali... and nikkas were ready to burn shyt down again Calvin (and Jayceon) played it safe and decided to use the issue to promote peace with the establishment (the police) and the community on behalf of the establishment......
A lot of coli brehs were taken aback by it but we saw through it... We get that burning shyt down really hasn't solved anything in this country unless the establishment does the burning (Tulsa).. Still seemed odd that "Mr. fukk The Police" put on his Crip garb for a peaceful photo-op
Now fast forward to 2017 and it's back to fukk the police
Now I know I'm getting old.. but what on God's earth changed between the peaceful photo op and now...
