Who is we
Did anyone read the article? Lil Baby makes a song and then he's having meetings with politicians. They took advantage of him and that's what made him fall back. These people use rappers when the artists clearly have a limited understanding of the issues and aren't ready to speak on them outside of the booth.
They made Meek the face of prison reform and it's clear he has no clue how things really work and is an idiot. Killer Mike and TI looked bad trying to stop protests. Celebrities shouldn't be the ones behind these things.
He didn't even say he'd stop making songs but he didn't want to get involved with politics. Fall for click bait headlines.

And now he's doing GQ photoshoots dressed like Andre 3000.
"they" didn't make Meek Mill the face of prison reform, that was Roc Nation PR, along with that documentary they released. That narrative was being pushed...

Integrity and Consistency
and calling that song political is hilarious. maybe we should start calling black genocide music political.
WE know how these labels and execs work by now.
They don't want young Black men and young Black women pumping out messages in their music that inspires young black people to go to college/university and graduate (why do y'all think A Different World got cancelled in the 90s? Cause it was inspiring young black people to go to college...why do y'all think the pro-blck afrocentric movement of the early 90s got taken over by the Gangsta movement then the jiggy/bling movement). They want black men and black women poor and hopeless in the streets, giving their money to white owned corporations and companies so they stay in the ghetto broke. They want Black men selling drugs and getting caught up and doing football numbers in a white owned private prison (and these labels definitely have investments in the prison industrial complex). They want Black women tricking and hoeing. They want us to kill each other off. They don't want us rising up and loving ourselves. And thinking Black is Beautiful. And seeing Black men and Black women with respect and dignity. And value. Cause then as soon as that happens...the BS stops.
And music is reflective of the environment.
They want rappers rapping about BULLshyt! Foreign cars the rest of us can't afford. Racist European designer clothing. Blood Diamonds. Drugs. Violence. The moment they get conscious...nah...
Being black and not wanting to experience racism or be killed by police unprovoked and for no reason is "political" now...okay.

Brooklyn the planet...
These rappers these days are just slaves with shiny chains and rented cars. Nothing new. He saw the recent wave of black lives matter and all these political and social washing towards the “urban community” and decided to make a song towards the current trend. Made his money off of it, saw the pressure behind it, decided to go back to what he actually knows: Black Death and dealing drugs. Next
i don't put that on jews unless you saying nikkaz are helpless pawns instead of sellout opportunists
pick one
I'm willing to bet he realized that speaking on that tip comes with a whole lot of responsibility. once you start talking anything of that nature you gotta be dirt free and damn near a saint or people will pick you apart. it's more haste free to rap about street shyt in terms of criticism and expectations put on you as a role model and leader...
