do you think we need more conscious or alternative or backpack rappers in the game ?

[Raheem95]

do you think we need more rappers or rap groups like A Tribe Called Quest, Del La Soul, Brand Nubian, Goodie Mob, Outkast, The Fugees, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, 2004-07 Kanye, Del The Funky Homosapien, PE, etc.

what you thinking ?

Kendrick Lamar is on his pro-black shyt but he seems not serious and just doing it to sell records.

J.Cole apparently is fake deep
Wale is

KRIT is a slept on rapper in The South and mainstream rap in general

 

[Wild self]

We need more, especially when cops are killing black folk. How can anyone ignore racism?

why do you think kendrick/j cole is doing it just to sell records?

 

[BodeineBrazy]

Rappers like that exist. The problem is just since Payola, only certain artist reach higher levels of exposure.

There are actually more than 15 rappers you know.

 

[Lord Mecca]

There's plenty. If you like it, find it. Hip-hop is like fashion, the masses typically do what everyone else does. Unless it makes money already, more of it isn't going to help anything.

 

[Prince Cairo]

The problem with rappers who go down that path is they run the risk of sounding corny or cheesy.

KRIT I feel captured the perfect balance between conscious thought and grit. But sadly he's no where to be found these days.

They'll always have a place in rap though, albeit small.

KRIT does very well for himself and tours regularly. He's doing great. Every rapper ain't gonna be platinum. shyt every rapper never was platinum.

Kendrick i feel like he ain't serious about this pro-black shyt and just wants to make money off of hotep nikkas and the conscious audience.

J Cole i said apparently because everybody hates on him, and say that he is fake deep. i feel like he is a good rapper tbh

Cold deep enough for nikkas who ain't deep.

Kendrick music ain't really pro black. At all... nikkas act like he's PE. I think son is just rapping about himself and his feelings.

He also happens to be black.

I hear that.

I'd welcome more like him.

Others (Cole, et al), not so much.

Does every rapper have a responsibility to address racism directly though?

nah i ain't saying they need to address but i'm just saying these motherfukkers acting like racism ended and that the shyt doesn't happen in today's world.

I'll take a black attorney, doctor or engineer before another damn rapper. No matter the content. I love rap but I can't wait until that shyt implodes on a mainstream level to give us our youth back.
