i swear hiphop was one of the worse things to ever happen to the overall image of the black man:snoop:

Atleast be spittin some positive, uplifting shyt at 50 years old:snoop:
:gucci:

I usually lurk your threads and agree with you but this is some not so well thought out bullshyt here.

The vehicle has absolutely nothing to do with the destination.

What does rhyming on a beat as it's defined by the genre called hip-hop have to do with how it's currently being used by the artists YOU don't approve of
- mainstream and/or broke w/ no teeth - have to do with the creation of this art form?

Have you heard modern RnB? It's almost as vulgar now, are you crucifying the creation of RnB for the degradation of the Black man's image?

Let's save our most energetic missions, soapboxing, and proselytizing for what taints our methods of expression and behavior instead of the vessel(Hip-hop) it has attached to.

Hip-hop is a tool and an art rolled into one. It's potential is blatant, your job, since you've been so determined to speak on it, should be to help get it in the right hands again.

You've appeared reasonable to me, breh. I'm expecting you to take a deep breath before you attempt an ad hominem attack in reply and realize your comment in this thread was - I'll say it respectfully - some real grade A fukk boy shyt.

Do you realize that one of the most significant and poor decisions in the history of Black America was when the old guard black civil rights leaders joined the status quo response to hip-hop during the late 80s/early90s and publicly drove steamrollers over "gangster" hip hop CDs instead of having a "lightbulb" moment and saying,

:ohhh: Hmm... Even though it's violent and vulgar, this medium has been infectious to the urban youth that seem disconnected from the unity we had in the 60s. Maybe instead of vilifying these artists, we can approach them and show them the potential to use the same reported of the violence and poor decisions by tweaking enough to not appear to glorify it and it could be a game changer. We'd bridge the gap between the wayward youth and the out of touch of guard.:whoo:


Instead, they loved the sound of their own voice by blaming hip-hop for the problems that pre-dated and influenced it.:snoop:

Don't be like them, Breh. You're better than that, right? How about you make another plat thread thanking me for showing how your extremism in the topic is causing wrinkles on your civil rights outfit.

Humbly...Iron that shyt out, brother.

@LinusCaldwell If this dude Phonzi is real, please ask him to speak on your podcast FTESWL.COM . I'd gladly call in and have an unapologetic and spirited discussion.

And Phonzi let's thank @Brooklynzson for creating such a beautiful website, influenced by HIP-HOP that gives a Breh like you the platform and audacity to bad mouth a genre that you probably became who you are because of it.

Some people, man. :dwillhuh:

Exactly that's why I hate to hear nikkas bring up an age limit in hip hop. Cacs don't have that mentality if some other cac pick up a guitar at 40 and start singing.
Do you know of any white singers starting out in their late 40s?
