How come Arrested Development is just a footnote in alternative hip-hop?

They were different, refreshing, bold, and conscious which makes a lot of Black people feel uncomfortable because it forces them to notice certain things theyd rather not.

Groups like AD, Dead Prez etc will be called wack, preachy etc because the safe space Blacks fear the system and will condemn anything that challenges them to confront or even call it out.
People are too p*ssy, and shun these type acts.

The c00n 50 Cent the tried attacking Dead Prez because DP was scaring White rap fans

50 liked Dead Prez but as he stated, they aren’t selling Anything.

Ironically, Dead Prez has a bunch of cacs in their audience.


Dead Prez didn’t sell out and thnk god that they didn’t end up turning weird like a lot of rappers in the Soulquarians Neo Soul backpack era:

Mos Def got exposed for being a trick

Common ended up being the spokesperson for Crochet pants

Kanye ended up becoming a full blown k00n to the point where he’s wearing a KKK robe

Questlove and The Roots got exposed for being fukk nikkas

Talib out here smashing a pornstar with a face only a mother can love

To do their type of rap and be commercially successful, you have to be SUPER dope. Speech is not. They got lucky on the big singles on the first album. People Everyday, it was the sample. Tennesee, no idea. Two hit wonders.


EDIT: Mr. Wendel is arguably the gayest rap song ever
