I'm talking about all these non-artist entities trying to be larger than they are. Trying to be larger than life.

Trying to forget that without music...they're no one.

Without the artist, they're just someone selling bullshyt trying to get a check for being a middle man.

Without the artist, they're just party promoters with no real skill

without the artist or the music, their only claim to fame is being on the scene.

without the artist or the music, they're only ambiguous titles full of air like brand consultant, or social media maven or industry executive.

Lets kick this off with Karen Civil

So apparently this girl stole money from Camron AND Joyner Lucas:

You've just actively described 75% of the whites and other non-blacks in hip-hop behind the scenes who just want to blatantly make money from black culture and art without having to do anything musically. They are colonizers. Moths to a flame.

They aren't wanted in the culture and they just use their connections to buy their way in and dictate how it goes.

This thread lowkey is the type of thing that they hate to see. I wonder why :mjpls:

Social Media gave birth to alot of em. But aye man, get ya hustle on. :yeshrug:
I don't like them... :smh:

Ever since around 2005 when alot of these types came out, they really started pissing me off cause it was obvious they didn't give a shyt about the music or the art or the artists.

In all actuality, they have no business being there other than being in the business of the industry.

I feel the same about music critics.
@Art Barr

They weren't talented enough to be musicians or couldn't be taken seriously in the culture cause they had no realistic skill set, so they used their IVY league school connections to become an intern at sony and suddenly they hip-hop? :dahell:

It don't work that way.

Yeah, go in on all of them.

Pretty much anybody that's using hip-hop culture as a means to an end who makes it blatantly obvious they dont' care about the culture. They just want a buck.

This includes
bloggers (and going back to what @SirBiatch said, alot of these types came through from....you guessed it...BLOGGING. They really had no connection to the culture other than as casual listeneres, but because they had connections and internet platforms they could connect to more people than others connected in the industry from a ground up level. People like Byron Crawford, Jaywan, fukk it, Julia Beverly, Miss Info, Nessa, all of them. And I remember around 2004-2006 the direction of hip-hopo changed for the worse around this time because alot of these bloggers started getting positions at magazines like Complex, XXL, Vibe, getting label positions and actually changing the direction of hip-hop. Lots of white people and asians that seem to present this outsider perspective of hip-ho and rap and black culture to mainstream audiences....very few black people in comparison were making those moves except for a choice few).

At this point if you aint' a DJ or a Rapper...you ain't hip-hop to me at all!

Video models and instagram thots are in this too.

People like Jenna Shea, Kat Stacks, Amber Rose, Mellyssa Ford, Superhead. They don't rap. they don't make beats. They just look good and rap nikkas wanna fukk em so they give that V-card up...next thing you know? They're doing an interview with the Breakfast Club with Charlemagne for what? :dahell:

people like Martin Skhreli are here too.

Hip-hop has sadly become a frree for all where everybody who wants in can do so using as little means as possible.
