Mainstream rap is a tool to suppress the conscious blacks. But there is also hip hop that empowers black people. Even back to the beginning with like the last poets.

The only idiot here is you Correa.





I'm aware of the Last Poets and have been since the 90s but unfortunately many many generations are not but that's a completely different discussion.




Mainstream Rap is actually more Positive than most things not.  The worst thing about Mainstream Rap is the corny music and the Egocentric Essence of it.  

But in order to know that you would actually have to know what the Clear Channel Top 50 is but obviously none of you do which is why you made that comment in the first place.  That's not to say people don't use those mediums as sources of entertainment but you're over-inflating it's popularity in everyday life.  There's probably alot of people who haven't bothered to turn on the radio in years





You're also legally blind if you really think folks (of all ages) listen to Radio like that, let alone sit around watching Videos online and on T.V. all day.  That's actually a pretty ignorant statement in 2015

You are correct, at least for the mainstream.

Alicia Keys talked about it and got in big ass trouble and then went back and recanted her statement.

Mainstream rap is really nothing but popping molly, drank, weed, spending your money to go to the club instead of paying for rent, and fucking as many people as possible.

And people emulate it.

Alicia Keys is lightweight anyway.  She doesn't hold any real water in the game; her and Swiss. 


And speaking of Swiss, unless he brings the Digital Game to the very Bottoms of the Trap his shit is irrelevant.




But I commend them for their work over in the East.  More people should be doing that, including people over there in the East

Yeah I do have to say that the Mainstream is just as bad as everything not in it's loop.  


On one side it's not as vulgar but on the other side it completely lacks nutrition therefore making it just as bad.




Tru dat.  But you have to realize that "the underground" is way more explicit.  No side of Hip Hop is really safe except for a few artists/rappers here and there.

If a Nigger is saying "Nigga" in his Raps it really doesn't make it anymore better than a French Montana record

it doesn't make it better but I'm sure that every underground artist is more articulate and wouldn't use the word in the context that french montana may or may not.

That's an assumption.  Regardless of how it's used it's still just as bad.  If you honestly believe/know that words have power (just like I do) then you'd agree that the word casts a spell on one's mind

There's no way a 14 year old regardless of ethnicity should be saying it, let alone know it's a word.


Fuck your life story, nobody should be using it.  It shouldn't be part of anyone's normal vocabulary

Yeah they do.  You can't say becuz you know of 30 EmCees who have a more positive perspective in their music that all of a sudden that's supposed to negate the 10,000,900 others who don't or have that smooth balance between the two sides.  That's ignorant

Go back to finding out a new song by a Southern Rapper so you can post the track and pretend to hate it and spam the Outbound Section with useless threads again like you always do.


You make 20 threads in one day and get 30 views and one response.  



What I'm talkin about is Hip Hop.  If you can't talk about the music then take your lame ass somewhere else.  Hater

Real life parenting doesn't work that way tho.  Once they get past a certain age it's all them (and their friends) at that point.  Hopping the nest as I say

Personally I don't think this is a stricly black cultural problem

Look at miley cyrus. She's out there encouraging very young girls to behave and dress like sluts. And her MOTHER is her manager. It's a white Trash cash grabbing machine.  then u got the kardashians and Paris Hilton sucking dicks on film and still being teen icons and shit on tv. Porn and shit online and this trash celebrity culture doing just as much damage as some rappers

And like Black Excellence said it all stems from bad parenting and a general cultural lack of values. Like a revolution of the mind - out with the old, In with the new. If a teen wants to be a pole dancer she's a feminist! If a mom wants to film herself doing squats to make her booty phat with her toddler in the background she's an empowered female etc etc

No offense bob but I hate when everybody else tries to jump on the bandwagon like somehow everything effects everybody the same.

Fact is, White People have different sources of inspiration and motivation while Black People have few. 


White People have alot of Two Parent households and Black People have few.  Which brings me to Black's "it starts in the home" theory...


Black folks households been fucked up since the late 60s/early 70s.  I mean you had situations here and there before then but the numbers were far less. 




Most images of Blacks in the media are usually Rebel Entertainers and Criminals.  Most black art is a reflection of that.  Hip Hop created a new reality where "baby mamas" are acceptable.  I don't know where y'all are from but it's rare to see Two biological parents raising their child together.  We don't encourage that.


We don't encourage hope, we encourage Savages to keep doin wat they doin just for the sake of feeding themselves and their folks, and we do a horrible job at that.  They don't realize that the art they draw inspiration from perpetuates a certain frame of mind to keep them that way until God smacks them in the head personally, then they have that Moment Of Clarity.  But by then it's mad late in the game and most of the damage is done.



Like it or not Chief Keef has more influence than Common and John Legend.  But even if he came out to do charity work today it would only create a contradiction in the child's mind.
