shyt's absurd and depressing. Dudes just piss their money away, smh. It's in the music, it's in the culture.

Contrary to popular belief, I don't think most black people want to defeat white supremacy. How many even really believe in black supremacy?

Alot of us don't mind living under it as long as they are comfortable and we feel good. Some even prefer to live under it.

People can say otherwise but if I judge by actions rather than words, that is the picture that has been painted.

Those amongst us that are against us being a lifelong consumers of everybody else's produce... are probably only 5% at max.


It's like a mental shroud we got to get over, its going to take hundreds of years.

It actually predated the culture of hip hop....

HIP HOP only magnified it...

i recall my pops from the disco era getting on my uncles for working so hard during the week only to blow it all on booze and broads during the weekend.....

we as black folk think ENTERTAINMENT over EMPOWERMENT ourselves

How many black people are in a position to "ball till they fall" vs black people who would like the ability to do so?

It's their money they have a right to spend it how they want

 

[MalikX]

FACTS! It boils down to us not having real assets so we have to spend whatever we get to feel important or feel like we have status over each other.

You get ahead by increasing your earning power, living well below your means and letting that extra bread work for you. Then later on you can stunt.

It's hard to do that because people want to look rich when they lower middle class at best.

Not taking WS into account, "YOLO," "Fake it til you make it," "Ball till I fall" and all the like are counter-productive as a whole as it pertains to generational wealth.

Once in a while, cool, but as a way of life,.

Ball till you fall from a grown man has to be a sign of retardation
