I disagree cole been rapping bout these topics since he came out
I've heard 75% of his catalog and you're right; the vanilla, rudimentary and shallow social commentary is on this album as on the same level as his entire catalog.

thecoli is so thirsty for a rapper to talk about black women need to stop wearin' weaves and let a man lead, loving PAWGs, but, being pro-black--ie be a coli poster rapper--that we're willing to make Cole out to be Chuck D.

He's not sayin' anything enlightening. It's just of the "well, atleast he's puttin' it out there" variety.

Kinda how Kanye can make New Slaves, name drop the Corrections Corporation of America, yet still embodies materialism and narcissism.

Sorry, I have higher standards of social commentary. OP calls Forest Hills a "powerful album" :huh:. Be Free ain't even on here.

There's soooooooo much music out there breh. You can literally listen to anything (for free too). You literally should have absolutely nothing to complain about.

I hate the blame music for societal ills argument too. Remember the 80s and metal music? congress actually thought slayer was causing people to sacrifice babies and worship the devil. :mjlol:

Isn't crime down right now? But trap music has increased... Hmmm....:ohhh:

When I saw cops killing nikkas and nikkas looking hella scared and shyt all that gangsta music just became funny to me. nikkas only hard with other nikkas. To everybody else we just jokes.

Funny how these same goons that talk about busting guns, are the same ones that are :hamster: to the police, and only fighting back rarely, are the real cowards.

Yeah, that trap sound is redundant at this point. Its like they trying to make black people to a monolith.

I agree with the OP...if all that is being promoted on the radio is trap artists then the sales numbers will be skewed for them because that is all that the general public will know. So you end up with less MF DOOMs or J Coles and more artists like Gucci Mane. If all that was played on cac radio stations was Nickelback then you will end up with more artists like Nickelback :yeshrug:
You and like three other people are the only ones on topic.

I'm just personally tired of trap music. Tired of nikkas telling us they coke tales, fukking everybody else broad but their own, killing other black men, etc. Just boring at this point, so I do agree. Also tired of these cats having the same flow, hooks, and beats no originality at all. I mean can Ross and Jeezy really make another album talking bout dope dealing the whole album. shyts kind of comical and shows me that they think their fans or listeners are dumb fukks
this:salute:

fukk Are you talking about? when did I say it was a powerful album?? Its a differnt album. Its unique to what wss put out this year same with some of Kendrick shyt. Logic did his thing also. Why are you going so hard body on Cole? When did I say I get my social commentary from J Cole or hiphop?

Why is it so hard for you guys to stay on topic? You're speaking out of your ass breh

And this rite here is the black "community" biggest problem. We think only in "I" & "Me" terms. Do u not care what msgs are bein taken in by the black youth? Fukk wat YOU
want to listen to. Lets start caring about "us". Are u not tired of the black youth only seeing and hearing about violence, negativity,pushing dope, the trap and materialism? You are not seeing the big picture breh. Its MUCH bigger than what me and u want to hear and it has LOTS to do with you whether u know it or not.

If I like Cole or Kendrick, why I give a fukk how much airplay Migos get? shyt has nothin' to with me.

Selfish people will never think of anything above their immediate household.

tell these conscious rappers to step it up then bruh,dont make excuses if these nikkas aint dropping ground breaking though provoking music that also appeals commercially......I know its harder to make that then a club record but we pretending like it cant be done:comeon:? Usually if you can make hits you can make hits of both types,but if trap rappers want to be one dimensional,chances are they just wont get they props in the end of they careers and wont be taken seriously.
