These people still dont get that the core and heart of Hip Hop are lower middle class and impoverished black kids
They(listeners that dont get this) want all the hypermasculinity and violent street stories that come with it but not the s*** they label as politically incorrect
S*** dont add up
S***s idiotic fr
Honestly yall can foh with this whataboutism bullshit
Also, I like how u pretend gay black people don't exist
Mfs do not realize the problem with SPECIFICALLY targeting an ENTIRE group of people
Man,I have never liked Craig Jenkins as a Hip Hop journalist. He’s exactly the type of guy we don’t need criticizing rap,not discussing his DaBaby article but bruh just follows whatever social media follows.
I’m going to keep saying this. Within hip hop culture, it’s disingenuous and hypocritical to take such an adamant stance on this and then simultaneously not have any moral urgency on the overwhelming content that should be deemed as wrong. If we’re talking right or wrong, it doesn’t make sense. Hip-Hop is very brash and offensive by nature. I’m not going to say how dare dababy say this, when I haven’t taken any stance on him having a lot of lyrics that if you apply the same logic to, you should have equal outrage. S*** is dumb lol.
1000% true which is why I can’t take the “outrage” seriously. Some of the same people who are condemning him are some of the same people who were happy to let him slide with implied actions of murder and misogyny. Everybody is a critic and everyone is a hypocrite. This is the way
If you truly care about black people you’d be against s*** like drill music and homophobia

call me George bush
ppl still trying to compare rappers rapping about violence that they’ll tell you “I’m rapping about life experiences”
to this completely random and ignorant, literally unnecessary rant by this dude
how
That s*** is real life to them too. They all ain’t growing up in progressive communities.
Most of the brash/offensive content in hip hop is given a pass because it’s usually cause the rapper grew up in the streets. Also a good chunk of people ARE against that s***. But just as many find it ok for the reason I just stated.
Dababys rant had nothing to do with any song or anything and was just completely unnecessary. How can you really justify him doing that?
It’s ACTUALLY disingenuous and hypocritical to try and compare his rant to hip hops longstanding violent/offensive lyrics only now, when you can use it to defend homophobia
This dude Craig another one of those dudes that looks at Hip Hop like a wildlife documentary on National Geographic
goes around the mountain just to sound out of touch on what’s really going on in the black/Hip Hop community.
Niggas don't care about rappers rapping about killing other niggas until they can use it as a means to support homophobia. Craziest thing is that many of the dudes who are suddenly fronting like they care are probably listening to everything Griselda puts out.

Tbh that’s the funniest thing about this.

These niggas easier to read than Dr. Seuss b lmao
It’s very hard to take the moral & ethical high ground as a consumer of hip hop/rap. Unless you’re very eclectic about which artist you listen to.
I find it funny how niggas now all of a sudden care about niggas rapping about violence lol. When people on here call out street rap niggas call them white and tell them to find another genre to listen to lol now all of a sudden when mfs are calling out homophobia niggas wanna hide behind that argument. If y’all like that with posters on here who call out street rap, I’m already knowing they’ll dismiss these so call people they want to keep the same energy with violent lyrics. Just say you don’t give a f*** about homophobia without pretending like you actually want people to keep the same with street rap lol.
This where I’m at with all this s***
S*** Lupe was calling out Chief Keef for rapping about and glorifying violence in Chicago and Chief Keef said he'd slap the s*** out him. Niggas loved Chief Keef's response
Idk why everyone so shocked that a street rapper is homophobic lol
Dude killed a guy in Walmart (still debatable if it was justified or not) with ease.
DaBaby is an idiot for all of this but being shocked is laughable

When listening and being a fan of rap,your promoting something morally wrong one way or the other unless you listen exclusively to 80s rap or something. Saying “Hip Hop For Gays”until your tongues dry and then hyping up the next Future release and making excuses for him when he does his several baby mommas wrong makes it hard for rap to make any real progress. It’s an irresponsible culture
felt like i was waiting for the part where he discussed america’s obsession with hyper black masculinity but we never got to it instead we just got s***ty metaphors that compare middle aged black men like boosie to karens
looks like i have to do the work my goddamn self

I don't think that people (well Black people at least) are shocked by him being homophobic. Moreso that he's just so adamant about it, and took such a weird stance in how he is defending it.
Dude is talking about "Y'all come to us when it comes to rapping about killing one another" and the nigga himself makes that music, and at any point he can stop, but he won't cause he knows people will stop listening and he'd rather tap dance for white folk's money.
