[re'up]

If the people didnt listen to violent rap then violent rap wouldnt be promoted more

yeah but aint it really a money thing? the execs can promote the fk outta of soft shyt if they wanted to, they'd just have to endure taking short-term losses. I feel like record execs could make positive rap poppin again if it sounded good, it's just too easy to promote sliding on opps

They don't want to put the work in it would take to make it popular. They let the public decide what's hot, drown out the rest, then ride that wave until the next one. It's the reason there's 0 balance.

Labels are not consumers

I’ve fought in combat. I shouldn’t be invited to speak on maneuvers and counter insurgency at the War College. So what if he’s lived it. Y’all love giving credence to nikkas for a living a life they chose to indulge in. But at least it’s black folks profiting off black pain and genocide tho right and not folks like Rubin right?

Weird comparison. He's a rapper talking about music content.

 

[BK The Great]

Songs like this flopped for Meek, i guess fans don't want to hear this from him.

Right. Folks would love to blame these peckerwoods as if there's not a demand for that "aggressive content".

A nicca like J. Cole, a nicca like Lupe ......but the world doesn't like when conscious rappers talk intelligently

Meek might be a better messenger because people in that lane will value Meeks opinion more

Whereas, they'll ignore a Cole or Lupe because of what they rap about

so meek is the right messenger

 

[Renegade47]

at the end of the day people are going to listen to what is presented to them.

Drake, Kendrick and Cole have made more money than all of these drill, drug, and gang rappers over the last decade...

Yup, all the drill rappers fell off and don’t have any longevity.

 

[Lord Beasley]

so meek is the right messenger

And nothing will change with meek speaking at an NAACP event. If meek somehow gets back in the fold, expect more violent music from him
