Should 2pac have took the advice of Delores Tucker and stayed alive?

Well she could attack the root of the problem instead of trying to silence the voice that makes people aware of it. Politicians like this always criticize people for documenting the hell they're living in yet it never crosses their mind that they can prevent these people from turning into who they become. If the Southside was not so segregated, we would have less Chief Keef's running around, but people don't care about the violence being perpetrated, they just want to stop hearing it.

I didn't know she was in a position to change things for black people in America.

She wanted black men to stop calling black females hoes in rap songs.

There is absolutely no reason for black people to make rap songs about killing each other.

I never heard one diss record from a nikka about the Jews who owned the slave ships.

Nah, it was more like she talked to us. It wasn't a daily lecture or something but one day she called my friends and I into her office to help with something and she talked to us about the dangers of gangsta rap and showed a picture of herself, AI, and david stern and told us about how she got him to not released his rap album. That pissed me off cuz personally I thought AI would be one of the sickest rappers ever at the time. :ehh:


She played right into their agenda, and I'll leave it at that.

:laff: And the gangsta rap she was criticizing didn't?

Young fans effectively calling a civil rights activist a sellout because she objected to the damaging gangsta rap culture in the 90's was just very naive, but they were young and impressionable, mislead by rappers protecting their own interests & hiphop journalists doing the same by dikkriding said rappers, but grown fans still doing this in 2014? That's just plain stupid.

Not wanting black people to make rap songs about killing each other played into who's agenda?

Not wanting black men to call sisters hoes on records played into what agenda.

I'll leave it at that....

I'm not talking about directly changing the hood because I doubt she had the power to do that, but why didn't she promote what they were saying in a more eloquent fashion than denounce the message entirely. As other guys said previously, she had ulterior motives. So nikkas can kill each other, but when they rap about it, it becomes a problem? You're missing the point If the killing wasn't happening then these violent lyrics wouldn't exists. It was hell on earth in hoods across America in the 90s, nikkas was just rapping about what they see. I agree with her about the misogyny though, there really is no reason for that.

Not to the Jews that owned the labels it wasn't but to a civil right's leader sure it was a problem.
So I suppose it would make for sense for somebody to see their homie get killed in front of them and rap about how much faith they have in mankind?

They were not making songs about painting homes and rebuilding the ghetto.

Millions of people of all ethnicity's live in far worse 3rd world poverty and don't make rap songs about killing each other.

People are living peacefully in grass huts held together with mud and little shacks on this earth.

So that argument about Hell in the hood will never get people anywhere.
