"Rap Music Is EXTREMELY Influential...I Started Smoking Blunts & Drinking Because Of It...It's DEFINITELY Affecting Ja Morant" - Ja Rule

[Lambent55]

If it's not the music, where did Ja Morant learn to act like that?

There's a reason why suburban privileged black kids try to sound and act hard.

That’s EXACTLY how I described it once!

That shyt has you in a trance if you don’t have the right influences around you!

Yeah it’s influential, especially for the weak. I’ve listened to hip hop since I was 8 or 9, and I’ve never had a desire to smoke a blunt or drink a 40 oz or some Cristal.

Only Coli brehs would deny this. But everything is influential when you’re at a young age unless you have someone there to hammer in and explain to you the actual issues.

I fw his honesty man. Its captain obvious shyt, but he aint wrong.

Was he really a Jehovah’s Witness in Queens?

I disagree with this. Kids used to smoke in bathrooms in the 70s. Back in the day, you could run and fetch your folks a pack of cigs. Coca(ine) Cola, the hippy movement, Budweiser: wuzzzaaaaaahhh!!!, etc etc etc.


I'm all for us being upright and leaving bad behaviors but not everything is hip hop's fault. You run the risk of stamping yourself with "the mark of the beast" with that line of thinking

I dont know you, but maybe you had a support system. The difference is today, alot of these kids are raising themselves. I know folks that are in their late 30's like me that smoke with their kids, they be in the clubs more than their kids. Without a decent parent or parents, most of these are just influenced by what they see and hear.

It's a lot of followers. It's follow culture where nikkas follow each other and mimic behavior

This shyt can only influence the weak. But the weak don’t like to be called weak so they overplay how “influential” something is. Nah champ. You’re just a weak minded and impressionable person. They don’t realize everyone isn’t weak like that.

You have to a hard retard to believe rap doesn't influence youth and black culture.

Hiphop is a fukkin religion. Most of us get most of our life queues from Rappers and Celebrities. Black people follow and imitate artist and celebrities more than we do Jesus. From our clothers, shoes, behavior, "keeping it real". smh

Well if Ja Rule said it I guess I can disregard the hundreds of other examples I have that say otherwise.

dudes who claim you can be tricked into being gay think music doesn't influence you
