because artists need to be careful if they want to put out something....games on IG looking like a straight clown right because he's making it a race thing when the only people making it a race things are the racists

if the artist does their homework and has no bias to what happened then some quality material will come out on how you can't be acting like straight fools out there and not expect consequences

It is a race thing. I don't know how one could say it isn't. Are you one of those faux, progressive "New Black" niggas? Or are you just a young nigga that still doesn't know his head from his ass?

It's a race thing, but it's not just a race thing. The police have too much power in general. People who seek to reign the police in only hurt their cause by turning away potential allies. Even if you hate white people, you shouldn't be above using their help if it would contribute to your own success.

I completely agree with that, however, that wasn't what his post said. There are multiple issues going on right now and to over simplify these happenings with rudimentary logic makes people seem like idiots.

i'm 30 years old but not sure what that has to do with it......the only people that think it's a race thing are the people who want it to be a race thing, they are also the ones splattering racist stuff everywhere instead of making people aware of racism

not sure how someone reaching for another persons gun and then suffering the consequence from his own actions is race just because the officer happened to be white...like a black cop would have reacted differently if they felt threatened in that manner

the other guy being huge, not listening to a black female cop, she called for back up and it happened to be a white guy shows up to help her....the guy was resisting as well, maybe because he was on probation and would be in trouble....but had that female cop choked him out if she was bigger or the guy wasn't a tank would this be the story it is? nope

with all of that said cnn also posted findings of white males are killed by cops at a 3/1 clip over black males, so the numbers don't support this race nonsense being spread around

i've also been harassed numerous times by cops as i'm sure most people here have, i just don't act stupid and try and fight with them, i may have choice words but it's never a race thing, the color of the cop doesn't matter

one can argue cops abusing their authority and that may be legit even if not in these situations but it doesn't have anything to do with race at all...look up the stanford study done in a jail when they made some inmates the "cops" of the jail and let the others remained "prisoners", the ones with authority abused their authority every time...color doesn't play a role here or in most situations that people are up in arms about lately

typical response...everyone that thinks it's a race thing can't come back with a legit reason why it's a race thing other than yelling race more....it's cool, i figured coming on here people wouldn't take to the truth, keeping the blindfold on and seeing who can yell race louder doesn't mean it's right...just makes ya look like the real racist

just remember it ain't a black vs all team here...the black people don't have to stick by each other just because of the color of skin when someone does something wrong...it's team america not team black and stick up for team black no matter what

@ladyandthetrampetrez3

I been calling out rappers for not having socially conscious music and calling out niggas who like songs just cause it "goes in the club" or "bangs in the whip".

 
It's not even about silence or fear. It's that everything is aired out on social media. That's what this generation is about: How many people will see what I have to say vs. how many people will hear what I have to say. The angst and the pain isn't being channeled into the music anymore because a lot of the emotion in the music is lost.

It's not even about a culture, because what's happening is bigger than that. Lives are being taken and there's not a soundtrack for it that makes us analyze ourselves and at least want to do something to change the condition.
