The Great Dr Boyce Watkins goes IN on Future and c00n rappers

[Made Myself A Boss]

In my opinion if you let music dictate how you live your life you're weak minded. I am 27 years and have been listening to Rap for over 20 years and not once have I ever thought about being a gangsta, a thug or a criminal. I don't get how some people let music or any other type of entertainment dictate who they are.

Basically

The onus should be on parents to parent their children not on Future.

One second its "future is broke and on the verge of bankruptcy"...

Next its he make garbage music...

Now he needs to make music to better the children



Man if these nikkas don't get off that mans nuts and stop worrying about OPP(other peoples pockets)

 

[Made Myself A Boss]

Put things into perspective brother. What is truly more pathetic - A 34 year old black man creating a 60+ min album backed by a rich Jew AND is laced with black genocidal propaganda AND that is being marketed toward black kids or black man spending 40 minutes taking a stand against this nonsense?

So you on that rap music is the reason the murder rate it so high tip huh

Again its not futures job to raise your kids..stop looking to Future to give you inspiration

Cam'ron already explained all of this during his Bill O'Reilly interview and here you guys are still bringing up the same cac talking points 20 years later... Disgusting

that 34 year old man just came from the ghetto and grossed 8 million in about 5 years...I don't see anything "pathetic" about that at all.

There is a parental advisory note on the song/album. Parents need to take accountability of what they are listening to especially around young children.
Of course it's impossible for kids not to hear or listen to some of this lyrics be it at school or friends or basketball games/ school dances but if you can teach you kids that this is strictly entertainment and that it; then your kids will be straight.
If your kids have a sense of identity and belonging they won't feel the need to "follow the crowd"

So basically you don't have any kids, or never reproduced in your life?

No I don't have kids. But my father did. We didn't listen to the much music growing up We listened to bob Marley and some traditional Nigerian music whenever he was in the car. My mother played micheal Jackson and some other stuff I can't really remember. But as my brothers and I got older and started listening hip hop/rap we knew it was entertainment nothing more nothing less. Music I believe plays a huge role In a kids psychology when they grow up. Those ages where the brain is constantly expanding and growing and logic/ comprehension cognition is being developed they shouldn't be listening to many types of music not just rap/ hip hop

Growing up,, We had lyricist like Rakim, Kane, The Native Tongues, X Clan, Poor Righteous Teachers, Brand Nubian, Public Enemy,,, I learned many of things from them, than what was being taught in school... During that era, there was black empowerment. We had our leather Afrikan medallions, X hats, shirts, and etc...

What do these rappers today teach our children, other than to be drug fiends, talking about percocet, lean, and encourage our youth to be nothing but addicts and encourage ******dom.

Real shyt. I remember being in the 10th grade and getting "lets get free" by dead prez. I remember i got home and had to go out with my mom but still had some time before we left, so i decided to listen to the album for a few minutes.

My man........to tell you i was shocked by what i was hearing, would be an understatement. That album single handedly woke me up. I played the intro and i just remember smirking like "ok ok" to that beat...that eery ass infectious beat and then hearing the words that man was speaking, "....you dont blame the person the victim. You blame the oppressor. Imperialism, white power is the enemy. Was the enemy when it first came to africa and snatched up the first african and brought us here against our will...iiiiiiiiis the enemy today....and that's what you have to understand today".

10th grader



Then track 2 comes on...."im a african, im a african and i know what's happenin"



My mom's telling me we gotta go and track 3 comes ...."i went to school with some redneck crackers"



I did not want to leave and when i did, i couldn't wait to get back home to listen to that album. I cant imagine that type of album getting released today. I don't think kids today would even fukk with it like that. Whole bunch of bojangling ass lil boogers just want to dance and THAT'S IT.

But that album had such a profound influence on me and my mind state. I felt different. I couldn't listen to juvenile and dmx the same anymore cause it was like "wtf am i listening to?". Next day, went to the bookstore and bought Black Power by Kwame Ture and The Debt by Randall Robinson. These teachers couldn't teach me shyt after that. Thomas jefferson....muthafukk thomas jefferson

 

[SuperGrizzy]

Why y'all still fukking with Future?

 

[Somebody]

im inspired by both boyce and future

 

[ORDER_66]

I fukk with Boyce like that... alot of rappers stunting for the gram with that money shyt is corny like jayz said. In this economy where millions of people are struggling that shyt with the money phone is like a slap in the face to me...

Alot of rappers need to grow the fukk up and start doing real business like Ross did. Grow up!!!

Damn, dude went in at the beginning.

Children are impressionable whether you want to believe it or not.
Maybe you had a sense of identity and purpose early on, but a lot of black kids dont, especially AA. He explained why in the video.

If we were breaking it down percentage wise

What percentage would you attribute raising your children on to
Future and what percent would you put on the parents of said child?

Parents are responsible for raising their own kids, Future 0%
The black community as a whole has a responsibility to reject poison when its being pushed on them tho. Some black people can listen to drug and black murder chants unscathed, then go on to be successful but overall AA have become mentally fragile, and its a systematic thing that happened over centuries it didn't start with rap music.

I hear you but wouldn't one find it strange that no other culture does this with their choice of music?

It started out as keeping it real and honest from Ice T and NWA. Blacks were really going through it back then for such a liberal place.

Over 30 years later, nothing as changed? That's a beaming problem. Are artists being influenced or influential? I'd say influential.

Ok but life don't work like that. There's people out here who work 2, 8 hour shifts they don't have time to monitor what kids listen to.

Even if I raise my children right. That doesn't mean shyt, if there's millions of other children who aren't raised right or parents to monitor what they're children listen too or how they act.
