The distortion and degradation of african american culture and image isn't down to rap alone.
i didnt say it happened to rap alone, stop putting words in my mouth, the topic was rap music
There are socio-economic factors that had contributed towards this which you choose to ignore.
those are just code words for blaming white people, which imo is just a form of white supremacy
black people taking responsibility for our own situation is the first step toward solving our issues
The fact you don't care about gender conflict shows how negligent you really are. Black people = black men and black women as a whole. The women were perfectly content destroying the male identity by diminishing the black male as a provider. Men will not build an infasctructure/community if their women are combative and cling on false "independence"
this is gibberish
Job opportunities were being denied before the existence of rap.... this was during the motown era ....so wtf are you talking about ?
yeah, and?
so what?
that is your excuse for black people participating in the degradation of african american culture?
you are waiting for white people to give jobs to black people and for white people to stop being racist and then you think black people will stop participating degrading our culture? thats your plan of action?
Don't you get it ? There is no unity, no economic base and there for no responsibility....all this stuff happened prior to rap/hiphop which is why things are the way they are now.....
yeah i get it, you are waiting for white people to do something about the problem
