real spit breh we got a thread in the booth talking about this. 10 ways to kill a black man or something like that.Sad fukking article breh. But that's why we need more variety. 50, E40, J prince, Jay-Z all own majority stakes in their companies. Nothing stopping them from pushing something different. Props to Jay for putting out the Cole
Go make your own shyt or listen to something else or stfu
Yes there is. Its entertainment. Just like WWE or NFL.
You think if music changes suddenly there will be more jobs and a better economy. Or that the U.S. will no longer oppress the black community. People gonna do what they gonna do regardless. 70% of crime in america is committed by whites, I guess its the trap music.Yes there is. Its entertainment. Just like WWE or NFL.
dapped and rep pendingnevermind... delete thread Mods.
dont give up my G thats what they want. even with everything goin on right in there face nikkas is blind to whats really goin on and would rather stay stupid until it affects them. what you stated is simple as day you didnt say fuk trap/gangsta rap but there should be more options and more intelligence exhibited by us as black males in 2015 especially in our music but its not. if people think music has no influence on peoples mindset and daily behavior they are surely wrong or in denial. the war is on against us but As you see we dont need white people to hold us back anymore they done put us on training wheels to do it ourselves now. they have mentally enslaved the average black male so nikkas dont want to hear shyt they wanna turn up which we all about that but life aint all about that and cacs like @mozichrome for example who roam this site and our culture like the iggy azalia's could care less about us just our music. this thread already mimics real life as u see the worst resistance is from our own
reppedI'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". Be Free ain't even on here.
screenshot where I said it doesn't have a place in hiphop. And if you think labels forcing artist to talk the hood shyt or artist that feel they can't get put on unless they talk about crack isn't holding hiphop back then your delusional. Nothing wrong with trap but that's not the only thing out there. You're makeing a point that has nothing to do with this thread. Next time read the comments and post not just the title before commenting.
lol yeah nikka. Or anything it doesn't have to be just positive rap just a variety of hiphop music. Hiphop is more then just crack no matter how much you think it is. I keep hearing yall saying just bump what you like but I'm not trying to be stuck in a bubble. When I listen to the radio or Google Play music I want to be able to discover new shyt. New artists new Sounds why is this such a problem for you? And why do you keep talking this 90s shyt?? No one has said anything like that this whole thread.
if you still need mainstream radio to spoon feed you music that isn't what you like, when you can go straight to the source (bandcamp, amazon, spotify, soundcloud) and support the artist in question that you like.
