Another Rapper Dead… We need to talk about the Culture

[DatNkkaCutty]

It's foul what happened to homie, BUT he was moving sloppy. He's from Philly (Germantown). He's been in street shyt. He's not a slouch, and knows better, than to be moving that wocky. He's in a chicken & waffle spot, in the middle of (the trenches of) Cali, wit 100K+ worth of jewelry on, a nice wheel, a female, no blicky, etc, etc. He was FRONTIN, but for who & what? Get your breakfast, and stay out the way. It just wasn't the time, nor the place, for that. Bad enough, a nkka with no jewels on, and not from around there, is lookin like a lick. What did he perceive himself, to be lookin like?

"But, but....nobody expects to be targeted....blah, blah...."

YES we get it. BUT nggas are broke out here. We're in the midst of a (possible) recession, post-pandemic, post PPE, etc. Folks called this from a mile away. Folks gonna be thirsty, once that PPE well, runs dry. Mind you, this type shyt, BEEN goin on.

You will become an opportunity, if you're not moving responsibly (post pandemic). I'm not gonna take the path, of sayin, "His lady "lined him up", til the facts come out (nor do I believe she did), but at the LEAST, she was another liability. You cannot rely on a bytch to watch your back, nor have it, if shyt goes left. It's possible, but NOT LIKELY. She's not U, NOR YOUR MANS.

How many times, does it need to be reiterated? If you're moving in sus areas, you need to move vigilantly, and militantly. Ultimately, not even be there. But DEFINITELY don't move irresponsibly. PnB (and Pop Smoke for that matter), were sharper than that, to be gettin laid down in LA, like that. That's the really sad part.

 

[Buddy]

shyt won't change til people realize they're not "nikkas"

 

[Seoul Gleou]

If PNB was in Medellin by himself with those jewels on, would he still be alive?

If he was strollin through Mexico City at night by himself with that shyt on his wrist, would he have gotten got?

are you saying america is a poor or developing country?

 

[MasterThought]

"The culture" creates self-hating black klansmen.

I hate everything about "the culture".

I cringe when people say it because I know it does nothing good for us as a collective.

It's literal mental and spiritual poison.

While we think "the culture" is cool and hip, the rest of the world laughs at it and is glad it's not there's and would never allow it to be.

Yea we get it, but nggas is broke out here. We're in the midst of a possible recession, post-pandemic, post PPE, etc. Folks called this from a mile away. You will be an opportunity, if you're not moving responsibly (presently). I'm not gonna take the path of his lady "lining him", til the facts come out (nor do I believe she did), but it's everything else, ON TOP of moving around goofy females, who 9/10, are a liability.

I went to school in Philly and I had an iPod in 2005 when them shyts first hit

I knew exactly where I could rock that shyt when I lived there because I grew up in BK and knew damn well better than to advertise that I was a lick

 

[ba'al]

Ima be honest this conversation is already done amd Umar is the one who found the answer.

"For goooood!"

 

[ExodusNirvana]

are you saying america is a poor or developing country?

I'm saying don't go to where there's poverty and stunt

There are very few places in the world where you WON'T get got

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

We can talk all day but the ones having the discussions aren’t the nikkas dying. They want this lifestyle, the females they make babies with want this lifestyle. You can’t save the world, just live in it. How is it more nikkas dying today that in the Death Row era and them nikkas was looking to kill and be killed?

 

[In The Zone '98]

The culture needs to advocate for the end poverty for black people. So all crime can be lowered in those neighborhoods.

Why is LA still LA in 2022?

Just ANOTHER generation of brothers with flags on they head?

This what we need to talk about.

Nggas will be thirsty once that PPE money run out, and they're pump-fakin, stuntin, etc. Folks don't wanna give that taste of blood up. It's sad...but DUH.

PNB stayed in some beef and I remember him and his boys jumped Lil B. I hate to say it, but nikkas like PNB are not good for our community and he would spit in any of you nikkas faces if you got to close. Spare me the fake sympathy for this nikka.

Its not economics, black men are killing other black men for clout, attention, and due to their own self hatred. Until black men as a collective acknowledge this nothing will ever change.

 

[Tribal Outkast]

He’s right. Every time a rappers dies we have all this dialogue and finger pointing. But what about the countless number of black men that die to violence every year? I know the coli loves to scapegoat the music since that’s a easy way out. But it’s much deeper than that

Somebody posted a video of Kodak Black walking through New York after being told he was banned. It seems like people moved on already. This stuff is rinse and repeat and something has to change.

 

[Cat piss martini]

Some of our youth need to be
put down like rabid dogs.
huSTLin to survive is one
thing but if youre black and
have no regard for black life
you are worst than the most racist cracka.

 

[African Peasant]

If PNB was in Medellin by himself with those jewels on, would he still be alive?

If he was strollin through Mexico City at night by himself with that shyt on his wrist, would he have gotten got?

He wasn't in Medellin.

 

[Fill Collins]

Let's be honest, it isn't like Obama, Neil Degrasse Tyson or George Clinton got murked

No matter how many turkey giveaways/tax writeoffs you do a year, if you're moving like that, all while contributing to this soulless music we got now...you're not a real loss
