How different would the black community be if they embraced New Jack Swing over Gangster Rap

[feelosofer]

Gangsta rap blew up cause white people embraced it

People are going to gloss over this.

New Jack Swing had a good say 4 or 5 year run. The era of gangsta rap had came after.

One of the best gfunk beats




To answer the thread's question, i think the main issue is the number of kids being raised by single mothers with no constant male energy in the household. The lyrical content of rap has an impact but not as big.

This was my shyt when I was like 5. .couldn't couldn't tell me and the cuzzos shyt...unless you had that belt

Trash posting @BrothaZay really?

True, but blame Eazy E and NWA from 1991 and Onyx from 1993 for literally transforming the black youth from being regular people to superthugs catching bodies for street cred and being "real nikkas". Mental slavery cranked up to 1000. The Prison Industrial Complex must be laughing all the way to the bank when these rappers said that jail made you into a real man.

What you're saying is right but the OP is implying that the black community rejected New Jack altogether when that's not the case. It had a 5 year run then faded out which is pretty much in line with musical trends.
