Something I've noticed

[FieldTripsToTheHood]

there's no antagonistic threads from that 2012 clown.

IDK but i bet it has something to do with the white man.

And you'd win the bet every time... sadly.

Well personally I think it's because during the 90's that's what kind of jump started the gangsta rap genre into every household. I know NWA and Ice-T and Cube aftwards started it, and then Snoop, the late Pac, Wu, and Big and all them came through and did it too but it was a dumbed down version of it. It was still some really negative shit but it was flipped and didn't seem as bad. Then fifty in 03 on onward. That's about the time the current generation were teenagers so that's what we came up on. Alot of rappers now are only in their early 20's so they do what they grew up on.

So to me, it's definitely a cultural thing.

The reason it's so appealing to every race is because just about everyone who listens to it is poor. When you poor and you see them on TV living it up, drivin nice cars, the video vixens, making it rain and shit you want that, you want to be the guy at your mansion dinner table eating lobster and shrimp rather than sitting on your couch eating Ramen Noodles on a good day.

You also have your groups of white suburbia who love it too and my belief is that it's entertainment. It gives them a world they haven't experienced before and it's like a movie. The reason they go all out into it, you know, wearin du-rags, carrying guns, trying to get into the dope game, it's the same reason, they see people living a good life and want to be part of it.

Now that it been glorified for so long, you got 10 year olds taking after their older siblings who think it's okay to go to jail and come back, it makes you a hero in the hood now. You gone hear alot of "White Jewish record label owners are making them do gangster rap"... no, they ain't making em do shit. Budden, Lupe, Little Brother, Mos, Talib, Nas, AZ the list goes on and on, they have made great livings on some non-ignorant type shit. The dumb shit sells the most though so of course being someone who is trying to make money for your company you're going to take a Soulja Boy over someone better and more intelligent.

^^Right, I would like to think that if there was a collective movement to support more positive images in our music, the negative aspects would be driven out. It wasnt/hasnt always been like this, but I wonder if we can bring it back a bit?

No...

IMO it has to do with a rich/poor thing. As long as there are more people in poverty rather than wealthy or middle class then the negative music will continue to sell because that is what the people can relate to. If the middle class is ever brought back though I definitely think it can and will turn around. Look at the massive support that Lupe just had when Atlantic was fucking with him. Homie was shelved and not coming out then dude had a 3 million man petition and later on a rally and now the album is a lock to come out.

 

[major pain]

your (black) people gravitate/exalt the negative aspect of rap, because that's all that The Big4 Record Labels allow from niggz Acts...since 1993, real plain to see, seeds sown by our Great Jewish Brothers' deed


there's never been an antagonistic thread
just truth, facts, reality de racist's dread
Instead of debate, they just bid hate
Once their deceitful-traits, I did ate
I did hate white-racists, before the ban
Now I admit 'far beyond that' it span!
man It's more like...love...pity...from Above?
Was my banning, an order? From .gov?

Man! These bars are hot! We are all witnesses to this hot fiyah!

 

[FieldTripsToTheHood]

they banned you because you were so awesome!

 

[ThaChozenWun]

They let her back?!

 

[major pain]

well thank you there, kind sir, as your acknowledgment of truth facts and reality is always appreciated.

Yea man, I mean the lyricism, the word play, the structure, I mean dang you should put this stuff on wax asap. The WORLD doesnt know what its missing.
