How can you be from the hood and root for a "culture vulture" to end Meek Mill's career?

I put culture vulture in quotes because thats what rappers have called him, those arent my words.

I wouldnt call him a culture vulture....but blackening up your voice in certain settings and taking slang/style from regions you arent from is what these rappers are referring to i guess. I understand where theyre coming from.

Which is it?

Yes because it is commonly known that starting from the bottom means starting from a privileged position. The logic of a drake stan

Unless metaphors are lost on you entirely as a consumer of music.

You don't have to grow up with a drugged out mother and sharing your bed with roaches to make a song about appreciating the grind to the top.

The struggle AINT beautiful bro.

If you like that shyt, more power to you...and i'll admit, it makes for compelling music, IF DONE WELL...however, if you can't appreciate "Started from the Bottom" without feeling like every time its brought up you have to go into a Poverty Contest, then you lost.
