I wish i had time to really go in on this, but I have to head out in a sec, I will say that the whole Chief Keef vs Common is a fallacy because in american society of course people are going to gravitate towards negativity. Who is Keefs influence? Gucci and them. There is nothing to indicate that Keef has an ounce of positivity in him. If everyone was rapping like Common they would literally invent a Keef. Thats the way things are. No one wants to emulate introspective kind hearted people when they are 15-17 years old. Most young ass ppl are going to gravitate to what they think is "real". Pushin dope and murdering nikkas. In a ideal world, kids would look up to people who are trying to do go in the world, but they dont. The coli and most websites eat up this Chiraq type shyt because at the end of the day they either are detached economically or have enough sense to not take the shyt serious......and least be honest, most are cacs. Cacs been entertained by "savages" since they started robbing Africa. The kids that are in the trap is the ones that are suffering, they have zero margin for era and cant fall back on white privilege. They rather listen to demonic music by nikkas old enough to be they pops.......We got a multi millionaire been filthy rich for two decades 40 year old nikka, and a 37 year old millionaire on a song with another 30 year old millionaire talkin about "young nikka move that dope" ......negativity sells and these old ass nikkas should be ashamed of themselves. Grow up, they poison. Yea economic factors and society has dealt a awful hand to some young blk kids, but you cant tell me this music is helping.
This is the shyt that's made it difficult for me to enjoy rap like I used to. I still bump street shyt I grew up on but the older I get, I'm too aware of how ridiculous it is to have someone like Pharell or Nicki Minaj use their massive platform to promote selling drugs and violence. Its a slippery slope because on one hand, you wouldn't knock actors in movies or other forms of entertainment for portraying roles of that nature to a tee. The difference is, in rap everyone sells this image and then insists that its real. This is what i really do!....until they get indicted for some shyt. Do Nicki really gotta make a record like Chiraq? What for? Why is Wayne a blood
after he's sold millions of records and made millions of dollars? nikkas out here dying for that. Why Jay gotta keep reiterating he was really good at selling crack in interviews about his sports agency? Why every breakfast club or juan epstein interview, these guys hand out props for how much "work" nikkas put in on the streets? This nikka Rosenberg was like

when Ghostface was telling him about all the bids the WU had to serve. And I know rappers get knocked for going the other way. If Hov talks about real life, its going to be about paintings, beyonce, blu, and the money he sitting on. And people gone hate him for it. Idk. That keeping it real shyt really destroyed a lot creative licenses in hip hop to just paint pictures and leave it at that. But there has to be some semblance of creativity to be able to move past the cliche street shyt once you reach a certain status and have seen some shyt. I'm not saying make some save the whale shyt cause really, who wanna hear that?...but you ain't gotta tell me you gone pop me with the mac if I act up for the umpteenth time. You aint gotta go sit on the corner of your block with cameras to prove you ...whatever the fukk you trying prove... Just make some jammin shyt that fits who you are currently. I get why Chief Keef make the music he do. I don't get why 50 clinging to his aggressive content and all that
fuuuucccccccck, im getting old

I wish I could just bump the music like the good ole days...now im all..thinking and shyt
