Wait.
Since you don't listen to music that does not apply to your actual life circumstances..
You just watch movies about people who go to work, get groceries and go back home and then go for a beer and a game in the weekend?
...
Right?
I am both honored and endeared by the creativity of your response
Certainly a call back to the Delores Tucker era of censorship debate
To keep it simple, I don’t watch prison shows - I enjoy crime, sci-fi, comedy and the occasional psychological thriller
Rap braggadocio, good
Prison bravado, bad - I don’t want anything to do with hearing pent up male energy on a track - they literally have those people living like animals and they need therapy, not studio time
There was that dude who was a whole rapper from LA pen … he probably wasn’t rapping about jail, hence and emphasis of creative imagination underlying the work, and the ingenuity of making the song while in prison
But I don’t wanna hear anyone posturing and fake tough guy crap that is only upheld by the man’s innate submissive nature to seek the sense of community that comes from being a piece of a gang rather than an individual
It’s rap from an atmosphere with no women, this environment is only conducive to tough guy posturing
But is the manifestation of all of the influence that he set forth with his work on Death Row - it’s in the name / who is the baddest of the baddest incarcerated … those on Death Row. It’s right in your face and the ethos put forth are the underlying ethos of prison culture
So yeah, C Delores Tucker was right and they were invested in filling up prisons
Movies don’t effect the general public in the same way that music does, music is directly piped into your subconscious - especially for the unconscientious listener
