so I gave up negative rap and I urge yall (black ppl only) let this bullshyt die

[Drip Bayless]

I'm white because I find rap filth?

You my friend are just a fukking idiot. This is filth? Diversify your iTunes library nikka

 

[Truth200]

I'm sorry bruh, I just can't see where you're coming from. What you're saying is a slippery slope, once you say rap causes this violence and drug dealing you're saying that these kids are less responsible for their actions because of an art form. Should we ban Catcher in the Rye because a dude was inspired to clap someone by it? Tyler the creator rapped about raping and murdering women for a good 2 years and I saw no tyler the creator inspired rape or murder happen. Have you ever played Grand theft auto? Were you inspired to hit licks and kill innocent people?

Kids in the hood don't listen to Tyler the creator.

That's like saying white kids take Eminem lyrics serious when everyone knows it's all shock value.

I'm talking about the kids that's really on the block, they listen to Meek Mill and wan't to live his lyrics.

"All I know is murder, when it comes to me
I got young nikkas that's rollin' I got nikkas throwin' b's"

This is what the young boys in the hood tweak out to....

 

[untaintedbeats]

It dont matter if u think if ignant rap causes ignorance or not...it aint helping...I use to kick that it aint rap crap when I was a kid too..thank god I matured..

It dont matter if u think if ignant rap causes ignorance or not...it aint helping.

And that is the main point of the thread that most hip hop fans who listen to Jay-Z & Rick Ross will not accept.

"They'll never take me alive, I'm gettin' high with my four-five
Cocked on these suckas, time to die
Even as a youngster causin' ruckus on the back of the bus
I was a fool all through high school kickin' up dust
But now I'm labelled as a trouble maker who can you blame?
Smokin' weed helped me take away the pain
So I'm hopeless rollin' down the freeway swervin, don't worry
I'm about to crash up on the curb cause my visions blurry
Maybe if they tried to understand me, what should I do?
I had to feed my fukkin' family, what else could I do
But be a thug
Out slangin' with the homies
fukk hangin' with them phonies in the club
Got my mind on danger
Never been a stranger to homicide
My cities full of gang bangers and drive bys
Why do we die at an early age
He was so young
But still a victim of the 12 gauge
My memories of a corpse
Mind full of sick thoughts
And I ain't goin back to court
So fukk what you thought I'm drinkin' hennessey
Runnin from my enemies will I live to be 23
There's so much pain"

Pac said it better than I ever could

^ My comments about this song last week speak volumes...

 

[Olu Dara]

I know alot of lil nikkas who's parents are dead or in jail and they are being raised by Jay-Z & Rick Ross foolish lyrics.

The irony in this post . Then shouldn't the focus be on why their parents are dead or in jail, I doubt it's because of rap music breh.

 

[mrken12]

White people listen to Heavy Metal which is relatively more demonic than hip hop, and still function as productive members of society...

They really don't.

 

[No Homo]

ITT: White people impersonating black people, uncles toms and people who created new accounts two weeks ago pretend to care about the black struggle as a means to throw around racial slurs and to denigrate rappers they don't like while in other threads they stan rappers they do like (50 Cent) who can be more readily accused of what they're preaching against than the very emcees they are blaming in this thread. These same people also partake in unsubstantiated nonsense that Hip-Hop is the leading driver of problems in the black community when the crime rate was higher when hip hop was at its most positive. They ignore factors such as poor schooling, lack of access to medicine, lack of access to healthy food, the prison industrial complex, broken homes, easy access to guns, embedded racism that leads to black children being criminalized at an early age even so far as being suspended 3x as long from school for the same offenses, inadequate access to proper housing, lack of job opportunities, etc. Nope, instead we're going to blame Hip Hop which no study can show is a leading factor in any of these issues. If Hip Hop is the leading driver in a kid committing a crime, stop and think about what was around that kid in the first place that led him to that. Middle and upper class kids listen to all the same songs and don't commit crimes. I wonder why.

Conclusion: This thread is stupid, self-righteous drivel that distracts us from addressing real problems. 1 star.

Thank you.

They usually grow up and settle down ppl ....yes its crap now but it's no more dangerous than Call of duty

@zayk35 where did your post go that was real talk?

 

[Tetris v2.0]

As ignorant and deprived as some youth are, and as literal they might take the "tales" of their favorite rapper...

I cant support that notion that rap needs to be censored. I know what I like, and I dont like most of the music the OP is chastizing. But if I wanna bump some Chief Keef shyt after a hard day's work in my ride, no harm done

And truth is, if ignorant dumbass rap ceases to exist.....something else will take its place. Poor, underprivileged, confused people of color will get swindled by someone or something one way or the other...

Hell, white kids are peddled the same bullshyt agenda, and are supporting and keeping it afloat more than black kids ever could. Black youth are just the "reference point" in the bullshyt narrative so people can buy into the "lifestyle"

 

[jilla82]

Preciate the compliment homie, but I'm just shocked that you think dudes rapping about violence is worse than the fact that there isn't a fukking trauma center where these kids live. These people are dehumanized and abused by a system that sets them up to lose, but when they talk about doing dirt, they are destroying are community? Bruh, can you honestly tell me that rap affects their lives at any rate? When you wake up in the house with no food, no one to teach you how to be a man, and everyone is trying to medicate you so you're not angry about how bad your life sucks, do you think these kids really give a fukk what Lil Herb is gonna do when he catches an opp?

rap gives the bullshyt a soundtrack though. It cosigns the fukkery.
Thats something that really isnt needed.

Its a cultural problem. Poor Americans arent poor when you compare them to the rest of the world. And there are countries where their poor dont kill each other.

Hip Hop heads have a hard time accepting the truth but i was once that way also.
