Lakeith Stanfield With A Message About Gangster Rap

[Scustin Bieburr]

When was the last time an Italian actor got pressed/criticized for not actually being in the mafia?

This argument makes no sense, italians arent pushing for actors to be authentic, unlike us who push for rappers to be real in their music.

If people really cared that much about authenticity, when Rick ross was exposed his career would have tanked. It didn't because the majority of people that listen to rap understand that most of these dudes either didn't do that shyt, weren't that deep in it, or are never going back to that lifestyle because they now have a stable source of income that can't be confiscated by law enforcement.

People are smart enough to not give a shyt if push T actually sold cocaine. It doesn't matter if he did, it doesn't suddenly make his production sound worse or his lyrics less clever. We saw that in real time with Rick ross.

If Ye wasn't c00nin then he'd have more support from us

But

Slavery was a choice
Maga
White Lives Matter
Floyd killed by Fentanyl

his c00n ass. But he wasn't lying about that aspect.

I'm not mad at Jewbrehs throwing him in the bushes. I'm more upset at non jews piling on when they didn't do shyt when Ye was c00ning against black people. Jews don't play that shyt., I respect it.

The bolded had the heaviest impacts on black American in the last 25 years.

You respect people for silencing someone speaking the truth about them?

He’s c00n so let it rock.

I listen to ignorant music and listened to it growing up but I have the wherewithal to determine what's real and fake and most people don't seem to be able to do that.

I had Mobb Deep and A Tribe Called Quest in heavy rotation

The rick ross incident should've never happened if people didnt care. And i do think his career suffered from being exposed. Lets not rewrite history and act like there people who push for rappers to live their lyrics dont exist/is just a loud minority.

This like saying you can't be for Italian Americans and watch the sopranos.

Gangsta rap is not as harmful to black people as law enforcement arrest quotas, private prisons, or the sheer number of guns and drugs available on the street.

Gangsta rap is simply a sound track for goons to ride out to. Before they were bumping Dr. Dre, they would've been bumping old school rock and roll or bebop jazz before they started blasting. The music isn't the issue, the incentives to commit crimes and the lack of alternatives are the issue.

You're going to have limited success telling a teenager to work hard at school when he personally knows someone who is making 10k a month moving product (be it guns, drugs, stolen/knockoff goods or all three). In a society that continuously shyts on men that aren't making big money and promotes wealth at any cost, youll have a hard time convincing him to graduate, go into debt and accept the daily humiliation of the corporate world for a fraction of the money that he sees local gangstas making in a fortnight. American culture is a culture that celebrates and pushes violence as a solution to problems, and the pursuit of obscene amounts of wealth. This is bigger than rap. It always has been and always will be.

America is a country founded on theft, aggression, and selfish individualism. Gangsta rap is one of the most American forms of music there is. It's the kind of thing that could only emerge in this kind of social context.

Not the same thing at all. Italian boys are presented far more opportunities in life than Black boys and aren't targeted by the media to view mob life as a successful avenue.


Black boys are blocked from opportunities and resources in America, then the media presents only rapping thug c00ns as viable paths to success. They are brainwashed into thinking thug activities are their only options to succeed

I agree. in general, I'd say most of us have this same perspective. but it's the weak minded and those easily influenced who fall into the tropes of thinking that rap music is more than entertainment only. unfortunately, it seems like too many people fall into the latter category.

You're basically agreeing with what I said.

The issue isn't the music, it's the facts on the ground. We can blame gangsta rap all day but the issue of poverty and the constant messaging about getting money fast and using violence as a solution to problems is still ubiquitous in American entertainment as a whole and the cukture .

Men are shamed constantly for not being wealthy or intimidating and that results in young men feeling like they are failures in life if they aren't making money and can't kill someone who disrespects them. In our culture you're soft if you want to be diplomatic but you're cool if you can beat a man within an inch of his life or end it altogether with a gun. That's been the case before hip hop and will be the case if today all violent music is gone.
