Taking/Smashing some dude's chick

[mcdivit85]

I don't know if I'm the only who notices this, but it seems that this rhetoric is laced throughout hip hop lyrics and seems to have become a fetish in some ways. Like its the thing to do or worthy of props. And it seems to be more popular amongst black men than any other, which correlates to the rhetoric being laced throughout the music.

Not creating this topic from a moral place so much. Moreso, from a "why is this so popular" place. This rhetoric has permeated pop culture to the point that very few male rappers/singers seem to make songs without referencing trying to get at somebody's chick in one way or another.

It has become some sort of badge of honor or coming of age. As if smashing some chick who's already "committed" to someone else is a feather in the cap. Somehow, dudes seem to think that it says more about them "having game" than the chick "being a ho."

Does anyone else notice this in hip hop and R&B? Does anyone else notice brehs seem to fetishize smashing somebody's girlfriend/wife on some "thing to do" kinda level?



Peace

Because the greater majority of mens' entire universe is built around getting women. What comedian was it that said a man would sleep in a cardboard box if he could still get p*ssy?

it's a hell of an ego boost to have sex with another man's most cherished possession (his woman).

Especially if you "ain't shyt" and that nikka has it all.

I think it depends on your perspective as a listener. When I listen to hip hop I assume the mindstate of the rapper, it might be because I'm a bit of a narcissist which is what drew me to rap in the first place. So when the rapper is saying how much richer he is than his audience or how he can fukk all their bytches, I almost feel like it's a soundtrack for me.

So, when you listen to Rick Ross, you're part of MMG in your mind while listening to that song/album? And living that lifestyle while in that mind space?

Kind of. I don't live vicariously through rappers, but I relate to the lyrics. It's weird, but I'm such a fan of the genre that it seems like part of me

Insecurity and immaturity and not knowing what being a man is all about running rampant.

The idea that you can easily take a nikka's chick is an ego boost to some I guess
But I dunno, cupcaking with the next nikka's broad is a waste of time to me
Not to mention you might have to duck some shells

Destruction of the black family, just another goal of modern hip-hop

a lot of these chicks aren't the most virtuous women to begin with and most are money/fame chasers. it's a whole league of ig chicks that chase around rappers/entertainers/athletes and the same dudes end up running through the same chicks. they use sex as a tool to work their way up from the minor leagues (mixtape rappers and commercial actors) to the big leagues (pro athletes and entertainers). it's usually the same chicks bouncing from one dude to the other.

that said, some cats don't follow the rules by the og too short and then catch feelings when their ho'ish tendencies flare up again.

a lot of these chicks probably don't exist because this is about rappers bragging about how they can steal your girl

I think most people, especially young people, feel the same way. Not that they're millionaires or are smashing models on a regular basis. But that they can relate to aspiring to that lifestyle and hoping to achieve it one day.

Agreed, but I wasn't necessarily talking about the exploits of the rappers themselves. Moreso, how the rappers are representing scenarios that seem to be popular amongst black men....maybe moreso than any other group of men. That because they(rappers/singers) are black that somehow "smashing some dude's chick" is laced in the lyrics. And my curiosity as to why that is such a "thing."

Basically, I was using music as a template for a larger discussion. Why is it such a "thing" to smash somebody else's chick? Why aren't dudes bragging about pulling a chick based on their merit instead of piggybacking off the lack of merit of some other dude. On some "I can smash you better than your dude" instead of just getting at the chick based on how fly you are.

It's to the point that you have dudes who only chill with chicks who are in relationships...on some "yea, I take n#ggas chicks."

I'm curious as to why this seems to be such a compliment amongst black men, especially young black men(entertainers and non-entertainers alike). Where did this come from and why is it so pervasive?

I hope that clarifies.
