This is nothing new in Rap.

Everybody is a gangsta. Everybody has at least 3 bodies. Everybody is a pimp. Everybody movin' mad weight. Everybody got the watch with a real iced out bezel. Everybody got a benz, ferrari etc.

It goes on and on and on. This is all just marketing schemes and exaggerated use. But if you believe he's some drugged out fiend, by all means go ahead and believe him.
Out of all the things you listed, being addicted to drugs is the one that is most likely to be real

Americans definitely love their drugs...

But Its plain to see the influence that popularizing drugs in pop culture has. We've witnessed it in our own lifetimes, theres no denying that.

Drug culture has had a significant influence on pop culture.


But let's stop putting up a front that we actually care that people are consuming drugs and further stigmatize and name all and pat ourselves on the back.

And for the record this country has had problems abusing over the counter drugs for over a decade. This is not new at all.

Chicken or the egg, drug culture influences pop culture, which in turn creates more drug culture.

Me personally idgaf if someone does drugs, i think thats up to individuals.. Im just being real about it. Glamorizing lean thru rap songs has most definitely spread its use around the country. You cant deny that.

And as far as legal drugs go... We actually have a much bigger problem with them, then illegal ones.. White people never wanna talk about that tho. ODs on legal drugs is the single largest cause of accidental death in america.. Easily outnumbering all illegal drugs combined.

600,000 people or so die a year from them, but you never hear a word about it.

Millions Of Young People Have Used Cough Syrup To Get High

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/01/080112181400.htm

This was in 2008. Using cough medicine to get high is not new at all. And to solely blame the cause or uptick in abuse on rap music is so dishonest and cheap.

so what do you think caused an uptick in lean abuse, if not the rappers who reach millions of kids daily?:lupe:

if celebrities arent influential why do they get paid millions to endorse products? :lupe:

How about you ask anyone who does lean and get their insight on why they consume the recreational drug.

Be a person for once.
