Gangsta rap. We had more balance then. I listened to NWA but I also listened to Tribe and De La.

A question that need answers
People forget a lot of our parents hated rap in general for the same reasons. My parents to this day won’t listen to it and they are in their 60s. So they were in their 30s when gangsta rap became mainstream.

The same church that never wants to listen to young people or their questions about lifeWe followed the rappers and legit abandoned the Civil Rights generation cause everyone was hyped off of curse words, general debauchery, and shock value like violence. Where did that get us 35 years later?
The same church that takes from the community but rarely puts back into them
The same church that hurts and harms vulnerable children and women and tries to hide the “secrets”
The same church and elders that continuously sells us out every election cycle
The same church that gets behind oppressors that murder us in cold blood in the streets and only talk forgiveness
The same church that don’t want to rock the boat anymore because if eyes get on them, they lose power, money and resources
You fake problack nikkas get in this forum and never talk in grey
Always black and white
One could argue that “gangsta rap” is one of the downfalls of black civilization
But let’s not sit here and act like this is just the main reason for community decay
All your elders and church people ain’t as clean as you tried to portray in this nearsighted ass post

I wasn't around back then but in hindsight, people like Calvin Butts and C. Delores Tucker were right.
It's a shame they weren't listened to
