RIP to black entertainment

[TRY GOD]

I feel where u coming from but even as a older cat (32) i still feel i have a young enough ear to know when bullshyt is bullshyt. Like i really feel the shyt out of Black Hippy.......but that Chiraq shyt . I can tell when someone has charisma, aura, mystique. Most people dont lose all of their senses when they turn 30. I remember riding in the car with my granma around the BluePrint era and flippin the channels in her car, and a Jay song came on and my granma listening to a 4 minute song and saying "i like this guy rappin...........he seems different" She was able to listen to a song, not know who was rapping from Adam, and pick out one of the GOATS. I dont see any GOATS, I dont see anyone out there that embodies blackness. I see Drake, a canadian jew, Robin thicke a white man, and a bunch of assorted nikkas older than me like Ross still being relevant. Its not a good look. Black music will have to destroy itself , reinvent itself and rebuild for it to be vital and of sustenance again.

This right here. More importantly we need to BELIEVE IN OURSELVES, PUT VALUE IN OURSELVES, AND INVEST IN OUR SELLLLVEEES

Once again you hash tag new blacks are proof of what I'm saying

nothing in your post relates to anything I said

my main piont is black artist no longer make black music

black people no longer have rhythm or soul

you let these cacs come in and steal your swag away

this music is is plastic and stale, doesn't have any life in it

the hip hop beats don't have any ride to them, the music has no grove

if you don't understand what I'm saying its because you've already your soul

nikka I groove to Hoes aint loyal everyday fck u talm bout


Sit yo old b b b back in my day ass down

 

[Silver Surfer]

it mos def was a mess....

 

[Master Teacher]

nikka I groove to Hoes aint loyal everyday fck u talm bout


Sit yo old b b b back in my day ass down

Once again, your using grove as a verb, I was using at as a sound

the fact you don't know what a grove is in terms of song, that shows you my exact point

the house wasn't rocking to that shyt,

It's sad, but I'm actually happy this is happening. African Americans need to have a wake up call anyway. Our arts have been a soulless dying form for sometime now. nikkas will do anything for money, just watch interviews of your modern black entertainer and athlete cosigning Justin Beiber.

As for rap music,
It hasn't recovered since Gangsta Rap and the Jiggy Era came on the scene.

MY NEGUS. DO LET THE MAINSTREAM FOOL YOU. Culture is down ALL ACROSS THE BOARD. K-POP anyone?


Blacks even used to listen to ROCK AND ROLL. Nirvana, Black Sabbath, etc. I know yall nikkas used to jam to KORN and Limpbisket too, don't even front. And Korn and Limpbisket are the DEATH of RnR.

We aint the only culture suffering from the GREEDY SOULESS BIG POCKETED DEVIL WORSHIPING WHITE SUPREMACIST blood sucking the LIFE out of us.

WE just have the MELANIN to change the situation for OUR CULTURE wayyyyyy faster the these other cultures.

nikkaz actually surprised at the ramifications once corporations took over and started exploiting black culture...

What you think was gonna happen?

 

[kermit da hustla]

i used to love bet award shows. cant pay me to watch that shyt now. Im could probably have predicted your entire rundown and i aint watch a minute of the EBT awards. Nobody to get me excited. I dont wanna see Jhene Aiko warble about bullshyt, or Chris Brown twirl around the stage lipsynching. Just a bunch of c00ns on stage shucking and jiving, no real love of the craft, no real genius out there. The thing that used to set us apart from cac was soul. Black entertainers like James Brown all the way up to Andre 3000 used to embody soul. Now we gotta a bunch of wannabee superstars trying their best to kiss white asses and be Junior Associate Cacs. Wearing Euro faq droopy leather pants and womens blouses. This is probably the low point for black culture in America........ever

Powerful post.

 

[The_King_of_Everything]

I hate bet and I hate c00ns.

By why make the same thread ever year about how bad it is?

nikkas sitting around circle jerking.

 

[Kaypain]

What's wrong with J Hud?

 

[Kaypain]

I want the late 90s and early 2000s back






I can't fukk with this new shyt anymore....
And this song is the reason why

The last time BET was BLACKEXCELLENCE: Teen Summit, Rap City, Planet Groove, Rachel, and Donnie Simpson were mainstays

...but in 2014 black entertainment is nothing but a minstrel show on Molly

 

[JustCKing]

Basically, if you let shows dictate the culture, the networks aren't the problem. Tuning in gives them the ratings. So by tuning in, you're helping the "travesty" which defeats the purpose of complaining when disappointed with the acts, network, performances, and the antics.
