Can't even say what I wanna say to you because I'll get banned so I'ma go ahead and block ya

Well 1) when crack hit rap wasn’t even a big genre like that the way it was when lean got popularized. R&B and other genres were deff still bigger

2) back then s*** like that spread through word of mouth and s***. Mad people were already doing coke and s*** and they assumed crack was similar to that in that regard.

You’re trying to compare two different eras without using proper context LOL

but is it the fault of rap or because of the tons of compounding factors in the black American experience

You just as dumb as him

Go ahead snowflake

yall really have people like this on here?

I'm bout to leave I just made this

"Check yourself"

Lil boy go tf on somewhere lmao

OP thinks starving a child is fine but thinks rap music is going too far

This is not a bold take, but it's a stupid one because it severely undermines more tangible and plausible reasons as to why things are the way they are.

I think rappers glamorizing street culture is bad becsuse it f***s up our public perception

but acting like it causes that type of behavior is ridiculous

if anything rap is just an accessory to an already complex problem lmao

Both can be true man is a cycle that feeds eachother

there’s a billion more productive ways to uplift black culture than to tackle an intricately creative and productive cornerstone of it

people are fixated on the belief that music can have that much of a big impact on your life

These niggas are dumb and have done ZERO research

I mean it don't help lol

Still talking s*** smh
Grow up

Nah not rap's fault, maybe its contributing like 5% to the problem but very minor

Yes it does

there is causation within the cycle that isn’t sourced in rap.

So was young thugs. Never heard of kids coming out wearing skirts and calling eachother hubby when he came in the game lol

Raised has raised more people out of poverty than it's killed people

Op always has s***tt opinions i stg
