Why doesn't Hip Hop "Influence" White People?

[Rawtid]

Boys are more impressionable.

 

[Neuromancer]

White violence has evolved from their savage barbarism to something more systemic. They don't need rap music to be violent, they got a whole play book.

 

[King Poetic]

their influence is rock, heavy metal

U not going to hear about their devilish ways on fox, cbs, abc, etc network or radio that they own..

Throughout the 70s and heavy into the 80s their music was leading them into satanic shyt and rape and murder throughout the country but since they controlled the media u can’t diminish the white man image

So let’s get this out of the way…

This might be old head babble. But I need someone to explain this:

Thanksgiving weekend I’m at a friends house. He’s got relatives over. And one of the kids is 16 or 17 years old and on the tv he’s playing all these Lil Durk videos. Probably some other ones too. But I recognized that Durk kid.

So as we are laughing and drinking and talking I occasionally glance at the tv.

Every video…fukkin EVERY VIDEO this kid played, showed a bunch of guys holding stacks of cash, and making trigger pulling gestures at the camera. Like, this shyt was relentless. It must have been a good hour of music videos. Cash and trigger fingers.

Am I just out of touch here? Because I remember thinking “what the fukk happened to hip hop?”


Obviously it wasn’t all conscious rap and stuff back in the day. But there was definitely more depth than this shyt. You’d think the artists would evolve over the years.

But again. Maybe I just don’t get it.

Idk. You should research what music makes them want to get in party groups and shoot/snort/smoke meth.

it's only entertainment for whit eboys

they know what won't fly around their families & community

the white trash that do live a criminal ratchet lifestyle are pushed into marginalized pockets of society

early 2000 hip-hop music videos had a lot more variety and it's confusing considering how much cheaper it is to make a music video these days.

He is/was a very active member of the Black Disciples gang in Chicago. He just so happen to make it and not die.

They don’t take it seriously. It’s entertainment. So it’s compartmentalized within that context for them. Another reason you don’t see them having hip hop influenced conversations like “how to get to the bag” or some goofy nonsense on youtube or why you don’t see them posting about charleston white

They can separate real, actual conversations from entertainment conversations

If White People are 70% of the listeners of Hip Hop, it stands to reason they should be feeling the biggest effects of the alleged negative effects like crime, misogyny, and ratchet behavior that listening to Hip Hop causes. How has the life of White People been impacted since they jumped on the Hip Hop bandwagon?

What is the 70% based on? When they say white people is it white Europeans or are they grouping everyone together like Hispanics, Arabs, Asians? Or basically everyone that isn't black? Cuz the cultures of all of those are all different and I'm sure it's not the same percentage if grouped together vs whites themselves.

We grow up in bling bling cash money videos with big booty hoes/pool party mansions etc

Rather my kids watch this then dude with guns

It does. I just saw a Netflix documentary about a white dude from San Antonio who was sentenced to death (later commuted to a life sentence) for robbing and killing someone. Dude used to pretend like he was a Crip and wanted to be gangsta so bad because of the music he used to listen to. He looked up to rappers.

I mean, there are impressionable youth in all ethnic groups. Of course for black kids, there's the added factor that oftentimes they can see themselves in the artist due to their background and looks, so the influence is stronger.
