Cocaine rap vs the reality of cocaine use

[JetFueledThoughts]

All good homie. Yes I used to drink alcohol but quit at 33 years old. I have had maybe 2 beers the first year in singles. Other than that I haven't touched alcohol in 7 years 5+ months!

I work, make CDs, did a film of DVD and have a relationship with my girl instead.

I'm still tempted to go back tho when I get brain busy. I do positive things instead tho.

Ok I got you. And good shyt on staying sober.

I was breaking down in my other post that in so many words, rap at its core it’s just a reflection of life. People still doing and selling cocaine in real life, so it’s gonna be talked about in rap. You can fine examples of every type of cocaine song. From bragging about selling it, to talking about doing it, to talking about the downfalls of it.
This is the first non pro cocaine song I could think of. But it’s plenty of examples

It’s a party drug? It takes responsibility and discipline to enjoy it without getting caught up. But it isn’t heroin breh

I drank a few nose cocktails last night and I live just fine, typing this from my couch w/ my morning coffee. Do the drugs don’t let the drugs do you

that just a weekend warrior narrative died with the fent era...

truth is if you are still doing coke today you are not responsible or just partying, that shyt got a hold on you that means you will gamble dealing with a fent overdose.

reality

Promote coke use.

Just don't say anything bad about white people or the gays in your records

I was actually so angry at coke heads back in 2008 I recorded a track about them hoping they overdose! But then forgiving them and hoping they get help in the same breath.

I think the pro coke selling rap is a scary thing. Even triggering on many levels.
I don't fukk with with coke.

But what's the reality of that life that YOU have seen?

I saw
- dudes Warrick their lives by 27
- relationships get ruined
- mental health disintegration
- three dudes I knew who commit suicide - one could have been a murder - but they all involved cocaine use/addiction and sales
- a woman broke her family and destroyed a high paying career. Now she's practically homeless and in and out of mental health facilities.

Coke rap shows this big time image. Coke life can offer a big time image.

But the reality I've seen has all been destructive.

I get coke rap as motivating in that it relates to hustling and working hard regardless.

But then we see a life like DMX, a life long cocaine addict. While a great artist he once had well over 3 million. In the end he had just $50,000 to split with over 5 kids.

The facts are the facts.

What I'm looking for in this thread is what any of you have seen in real life regarding cocaine use.

Your comp is kinda misguided. Coke rap is about the dealers coming up. You’re complaining about coke USERS. I’ve seen people ruin their lives eating fast food every day, but people still talk about running a franchise being a viable business opportunity.

This.

It's all about the come up. That's why it's flashy.

When u broke and don't got nothing then start getting alot fast flash comes...trust me I know.

Coke rap or rap about drug use or sales isn't any more destructive than street rap as a whole. If you want to critique rap music, critique rap music- singling out this topic doesn't tell the whole story.

Narcotics are bad for you, but there's an allure to the lifestyle of those that can afford to partake and those willing to risk so much to profit of it's use.

Coke raps??? Stuck in the 90s ass nikka any Trap rapper worth shyt talking bout Selling Ice and Dog food now a days

 

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

Alchemist isn't a bad comparison, and as long as my current girl feels I'm attractive all is well

Word, I agree. Facts are facts. The harsh realities of life and the good parts.

It's just a trip. Because there's an elite almost safe side to fukk with that drug.

Then there's the street, low level realities.

The first is a slippery slope, the second is hell on earth.

For real. It's easy for anyone to tamper with it.

What?

"I hope you die off a cocaine overdose/ I hope a dealer runs up on you and slits your throat! I hope you get fired from your job/ with peace in my heart, I'm...moving along"
