Tell that to a 14 year old from a broken home and nobody in the world that gives a fukk about them."It's only entertainment" - Jay-Z
it's sad how many people sometimes get caught up in the music, can't always do everything what rappers say or do.

So you mean to tell me there is a correlation between the decrease in crime and the decrease in the sale of drug useNo; That was because of drugs. Different time, different influence; smart dumb nikka
Why is it that no such correlation exists for rap music
According to you, if rappers simply just rapped about positivity and 401ks like they did in the 80s, shyt would be different
But the 80s were more violent than today by every quantifiable measure,
That nikka knew he was doing crime.....pathetic for another man to hold another man accountability for his own grown damn actions(yea he was a kid when trap or die came out....but buddy been grown a good minute now, trap or do was 05’,it’s 2018)......foh
You just made up a whole story in your mind instead of comprehending exactly what I said...So you mean to tell me there is a correlation between the decrease in crime and the decrease in the sale of drug use

I almost joined a gang in Atlanta because of the music being made in the mid 00s. They made it look so cool and the bytches loved nikkas getting money in the streets too.
Blaming another man for your crimes is some weak-minded shyt. Selling drugs is a choice. Sure Jeezy was more believable than others but nah, he’s a rapper/entertainer. He could never influence me to sell drugs. If anything, he was rapping about my life more than his and he was just background/theme music. There are way bigger factors to a young impressionable man wanting to sell drugs and like another poster said earlier in this thread, it’s usually older heads around you. For me, it was my cousins and uncles. And again, it was a choice, the easy way out. I know a guy who had two older brothers and father all in prison, he went to Yale instead.

I listend to the same nihgas (Jeezy, ross, T. i. )
Guess i knew to take the good out of it and understand it was entertainment

Is that why the murder rate was higher before gangsta rap was ever invented
Strangely I remember NYC was a more dangerous place when Brand Nubian and Public Enemy was kicking that positivity
Crime has dropped since the advent of "Gangsta rap" music.
2300 homicides in NY in 1993
300 homicides in NY in 2017.
I do remember an entire album snitching on self with lames flows over corny pop ass beats
