When and Why did positivity become corny in urban mainstream music?

[PhonZhi]

Remember, the draining of the love & soul out of black music has been BY DESIGN. Black people are the most "musical" people on the planet. Even back in the slave days, music was used to keep blacks uplifted and even used as a weapon to communicate with each other. Music is now a weapon being used against black peoole and the black image/reputation. Its called psychological warfare. Don't let any of these agents tell you differently. Its BY DESIGN. Systematically.

So just because you like a song it should play and liked by everyone else?

and again for the second time in this thread:

ex·am·ple
iɡˈzampəl/
noun
noun: example; plural noun: examples
1.
a thing characteristic of its kind or illustrating a general rule.

i didn't say a got damned thing about "liking" anything, but a song about being a blue collar working class person ain't cracking the top 40 any more....that's the only thing i'm saying.

but keep pretending you didn't get that the first time though

what's crazy is that ALL music pretty much came from us - bluegrass, rock and roll, the whole 9

but when you start talking like this - BLACK people will give you the

these progressive white liberals will be the first people to acknowledge our shyt - case in point look at what leif garrett says to chuck berry right here



that's right, one of the founding fathers of a multi-trillion dollar global phenomenon is a black man....but ask if we give a shyt

I don't remember anyone calling "Alright" corny

with all due respect, and I know i'm gonna sound prudish and old -

but a song with nikka in it 5,000 times, p*ssy, hoe and motherfukka all up in it isn't what i'd call "positive"

but that only further proves my point; is it corny that "all in the same gang" and "self destruction" didn't have profanity laced all in it?

you're talking about the content of the show...a lot of black people said it wasn't realistic even in the 80's

People straight up said the show was put on the air so white folks could say racism didn't exist.


Fake 'woke' people isn't a new concept at all.
