RAP-----------is making Blacks look bad

[ninefiveninesix]

What would they think? They would expose these rappers for being the puppets that they are... Let people know that they are not giving back to the hood not just cuz there selfish, but because they are lying bout what they have and how they got it in the first place. You cant build a foundation off lies, and yet thats what young black children are doing everywhere rap music can be heard. The most inspirational song out right now is "O Lets Do It", think about that for a second

lol...that's real talk tho....they lovin' that song right now

True, NWA played a part in that BEFORE Biggie to my dude who blames BIG for the negative state of hip-hop (QA)......everybody is not exposed to 100% positivity so if people want to say that the west coast, in particular NWA, was responsible for bringing in the negativity then that's ok....if you didn't want to hear about people gettin' blasted and all that then you didn't listen to them, but who says that there wasn't room for that at the time. Now it's different tho....its just not negativity like an NWA, it's more of a blatant ignorance and the embracing of it...some bufoon sh*t.....it's all this incoherent slang, catchy hooks, and nothing really being served in a artistic manner.....nothing to make you think.....I can get any dude on the street to do the sh*t that these dudes are doin'

The West Coast Rap brought the Bloods and Crips into it

Now you got Rapper like Snoop Dogg-----throwing up Gang signs on television

Is that what Black kids need to see

i'm gonna have to c/s that nicca Darkskies, yall sound like some House Negroes "oh look how white ppl are looking at us!" Fucc white ppl. It's not rap, it's the kind of rap they're showing you. Yall dont get it. The biggest acts in rap now are not even on that ignorant tip like that, i mean Drake, Kid Cudi, etc. Yall need to see the bigger picture.

Rappers make 1000's of songs about killing N!ggers

You don't see the Rappers making songs speaking against White fokls

So the Rappers are the real HOUSE NEGROS

1. 50 Cents------never have a beef with White people

2. 50 Cents----he only have a beef with other Black people

That's a typical Hosue Negro

Check it tho....white people are the least of the issues, but your rite it's the kind of rap that is being exposed to everyone....the majority of these yougins out here take in what they are being shown to them....they watch 106 everyday, hear about these shows with these bullsh*t artists, listen to the radio like its the authority....the first dude you named is Drake.....Is Drake the only one that is supposed to balance sh*t.....I hear young money all day on the radio.....who else do you hear on the regular through a major media outlet besides Drake......u don't hear or see Cudi like that, Wale, J Cole, J Elect, Fashawn, or anyone else that's different than what's been goin' on in the last few years

Just because white people bring drugs in the community----doesn't mean that Blacks have to sell it and kill their own people

White people control the media-----and for the Love of money, they're able to find some Black people that's willing

to make negative Raps songs that's harmful to the Black community

1. The negative Rappers are the biggest Uncle Tom sellouts ever

2. They value money more than they value their people

That's a typical House Negro all day long

I agree with what you're saying overall......We know who controls the media....All I'm saying is that if we don't control the media, we can at least make more of an effort to bring something different to the table....seems like it's A LOT of the younger generation cosigning on this sh*t out here.... i know everybody wants to dance and have fun and all that but it's too imbalanced still....if people stop watchin' 106 so much, listening to these stations, payin' these promoters.......give the "industry" a reason to look in another direction.....cuz u know what happens when they start losing real doe....

Naw.....First 48 is making us look bad

Black people in the 60's didn't control the media-------but they wasn't making negative songs like Black people today

Black people have one channel on TV that shows us------and thats BET, and it shows us in a negative light

1. White people have over 100 channels that shows them

2. So if 1 channel shows White people doing something negative

3. You might have over 10 other tv channels showing White people doing something positive

So there's BALANCE on television when it comes to White people

There's no balance when it comes to Black people

The media only shows the negative side of Black people

We have TV One and BET Centric.

Exactly......which I why I said that at some point we have to start with us......if we start saying that a lot of this sh*t out here is wack then we might be able to get somewhere.....The folks running these labels and distributors will look when their pockets start taking real hits....they still gettin' mad video/radio play and crazy ringtone money even if albums aren't sellin' like that

You are right as Black people we have to accept responsibilty for our actions

Does BET show Black people in a positive light

 

[Yung_Souf_Money]

rap isnt making blacks look bad if that was the case,that 41 yr old white woman who fucked her son is making white folks look bad

Hip Hop's Change To Negativity Was Intentional

The only ignorant person is the one that sees what a select few are doing and attach that to a whole group. If thats what whites are doing so be it
