Bang Bang
keef and them don't rhyme about the trap or hustling dope. they rhyme specifically about guns and clapping. in a city where young black boys are dropping every fukking day.
no, i don't consider selling drugs anywhere near as bad as what keef and them are promoting in their music. someone is going to buy it, and there aren't any jobs out here for black men. like andre3000 said in 16 bars, how can i get mad at nikkas for selling drugs when there aren't any jobs and racism is still rampant? i could never fault a nikka for becoming a d-boy.
you can't show me a single song by rick ross that promotes reckless gun violence. not one. so miss me with that.
in what way am i stupid????? i'm not hating on keef. get that bread. but at the end of the day, music about catching bodies isn't exactly a hot commodity on the music charts. prove me wrong.
i listen to d-boy rap. jeezy. gotti. clipse. etc. none of those nikkas promote reckless gun clapping the way keef and them do. if they did, i wouldn't listen to them. the closest is maybe that song jeezy did with alleyboy...44 4s. but that wasn't even a jeezy song. black people really need to do better, man.
we are BETTER than this. i really have to question if you fans of this keef music are even black. i suspect a lot of you are white. KIDS are dying in chicago's streets. not over money. not even dope. pretty much over NOTHING. and this music is celebrating it. why would i, a black man, listen to that?
i love my people. i hope keef makes a lot of money and gets out of the hood, but i just can't listen to that music.
he mentions shooting guns in almost every song
he mentions it as part of being a d-boy. that's completely different. it's part of his life. same with someone like cam or jim. they'll mention a gun in their raps all the time, but the context is completely different. if keef and them was on that d-boy shyt, and rhymed about the game in chicago, i would listen to them. that would interest me. same way someone like stack bundles interested me.
unfortunately, i listened to all their tapes, and all it is is gun talk. nothing else. in a city where kids are dying every day. i listen to lep bogus, and they're from chicago. but they're d-boy rappers, and you can tell in their rhymes. they know that gun shyt is stupid and doesn't lead to money.

If you think glamorizing violence doesn't promote violence whilst integrating the cool factor of it into regional cultures you are incorrect and require immediate brain surgery
