How come Shaq doesnt get flack in the Hip Hop community for being affiliated with police???

[smokeurobinson]

This only applies to crooked police though. Contrary to what you may think not all police are scum. Even Pac said he had no problem with cops who did their job. I

Thats what u say...Thats not what Hip Hop has been saying for 4 deacdes and u know this. I'm not talking about what your opinion of police is...Im talking about the attitude Hip Hop has had towards police for the past 4 decades homie.....U cant bend what it is just because its Shaq.


And please dont bring up Pac.....That destroys ya whole argument.......Dude killed a cop in the song Soulja Story on his first album.

Ok seems like you just want something to argue about, because making a topic about Shaq not being shunned as a hiphop ambassador is one of the most out of left field non issues made into an issue I have ever seen. nikkas aint mentioned Shaq and hiphop together since 97...But you cook though

Dude..u changed the subject. My point was that the cops who killed Fredddie Gray didnt write rhymes about selling drugs yet people are coming in thsi thread saying Shaq gets a pass for associating with police because he doesnt write rhymes about selling drugs like Ross. Stay on the topic...dont go left on me.

OK, I don't agree that Shaq "gets a pass". My point is he doesn't need one. Your stance is basically hip hop hates police, so why does Shaq get a pass for being a cop and I disagree with all of that. You brought up Ross which is a horrible comparison. He's not hated because he was a CO. He received so much backlash because he raps about being a drug dealer and lied about being a CO.

Do you think a non-gangster, non-drug dealer type rapper would receive that kind of backlash if it came out he was a CO at some point. I don't think so.

Again...u are bending the truth to save face for Shaq. U and I know damn well that Hip Hop has never specified like that......I already pointed this out.......Hip Hop never said "Well...these cops are bad but these cops over here are ok".....U and I know damn well that all police get lumped into one when we talking Hip Hop.....Come on man...dont bend the truth.......We aint talking about what goes on behind the scenes...we talking about this "Fukk the police' attitude that has been associated with Hip Hop for decades.

I think your position about the stance hip hop has on police overall is wrong. You're like one of these outsiders who listens to some songs and believes hip hop thinks all women are hos. Also, why are you asking about Shaq? Because he put out a few albums? You are not seriously saying that Shaq is known for his music rather than basketball are you?

Theres nothing wrong with GOOD cops

Star is "hip hop"and aligns himself with police HEAVY

Still can't get over how asinine this thread is

This nikka a bozo

I here u but you know its funny. A lot of people are coming in here saying what Shaq is doing is cool or it gets a pass. But how come Hip Hop dont talk like this when we are dealing with police as a whole and not involving Shaq? Why is the tone changing just because I mentioned Shaq?? outside of Shaq Hip Hop has a "fukk police all day" mentality.




I say its its hypocrisy.....what say you??

Not necessarily hypocrisy...the thing is the "fukk the police" chant is towards racist cops...not every cop is a racist...so how can you say fukk every cop?...there has to be instances where a cop let you off with a traffic warning...though few far and between...I think the focus should be on racist cops and saying "fukk you" to them...not just that...a squad needs to be banded together worldwide...and in america to combat against racist cops...the shyt has to start from the inside out...point blank period...look how this lady became the first black female mayor in missouri...Tyus Byrd...just by her being elected mayor that made 80% of the police force in her town resign...talk about muthafukkin' black power... Now what if that 80% vacancy left by them racist cops were filled with black cops and other ethnicities?...We would then be in power to police ourselves and not shoot nikkas when they're unarmed and with their hands up...check it out breh...

That doesnt answer my question. Every since NWA and 2pac....There has always been this "Us vs Them" thing in Hip Hop when speaking on police and those in the urban community.


.....That makes no sense.

No it doesnt.

Cuz they where speaking on police brutality and po po overstepping their boundaries.

Ive ran into plenty of cool police matter of fact IVE had to work with them/next to them during community events.

All police aint bad..

On top. Nobody cared Shaq was gone be a sheriff. THIS IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION

Nicca was a great b-ball player so rappers was gonna like him regardless, whether he became po po, sheriff, federal agent or navy seal

Your stance is basically hip hop hates police, so why does Shaq get a pass for being a cop and I disagree with all of that.

Then I don't know what kinda hip hop u been listening to becuz I seen four decades of police hate in hip hop. How u can disagree with that is a mystery.

 

[smokeurobinson]

Lol I agree and that's how u and I feel but hiphop never took such a stance and u know this. Again hiphop doesn't specify.

Terrible comparison because u yourself give him flack for being associated with popo. Shaq doesn't get flack.

This sounds cool but again we not talking about my opinion we talking about what hiphop has been saying for decades. Yeah good cops exist but hiphop don't specify all cops get lord together in hiphop and u know this.

 

[Frida Giezman]

And you yourself don't give him flack

Which was my point

And I give him flack for running to police not because he's "hip hop" but because he talks about busting his gun

As far as I know shaq don't talk or act like that

Damn you're slow
