This is literally a genre that came up off of glorifying a whole lotta bad s*** in general, like murder, misogynistic lyrics, both using and dealing d****, (I love d**** but in the eye of the general public, they’re “bad”.) rappers that promote scamming, etc., the list literally goes on.

Now none of this bothers me at all, and I love Hip Hop for a reason, but this is a genre where ALL of this flies. Melly killed his “best friend” in cold blood then made a song about it on some real life sicko s***, and mfs are still screaming “FREE MELLY!”.

It’s been shown time and time again that there’s never an actual “Too far” or “Too much”. These artists are real life murderers and rapists, and will still have an entire legion of sheep bowing at their feet. Look at R. Kelly. Convicted and in prison and proven he did that s***, and mfs still kiss his ass.

But yet you gon tell me this is the same culture that will try to cancel an artist because some offensive Tweet from 10 years ago resurfaced? Or because somebody is self loathing/self racist (Doja Cat)? That’s too much but full blown murder and rape isn’t? Mfs tried to cancel Tory over an unconvicted and unproven shooting but they’ll scream every last lyric about smokin on the dead opps. And some are characters sure, but especially in the Drill scene, these mfs are talkin bout real events on record.

Even pedophilia hasn’t buried anybody, shown on full display by 6ix9ine.

Nothing is ever too far, and yet cancel culture is still somehow fully ingrained in Hip Hop.

In first page

If nothing is ever too far then how is cancel culture too ingrained in hip hop?

killing someone and tweeting something stupid are the same actually

YALL GOTTA STOP COMPARING DOMESTIC ABUSE TO GANGS KILLING EACH OTHER!!!

THATS SO STUPID, LIKE OF COURSE GANG VIOLENCE IS TERRIBLE BUT ITS SOMETHING THEY’RE ALL ENGAGED IN THATS NOT THE SAME THING AS DOMESTIC ABUSE

This thread hits different when you realize op a White boy who raps and says nigga

post still to come, watch this space folks

edit:

Like I promise you saying smoking tooka and shooting a girl are not equal

humanity lowkey always been like dis if u think abt it

Nobody ever actually gets cancelled, but people will try it anyways. But the fact the attempts are even happening in the first place is some real picky specific s***, and completely hypocritical.

If nobody ever gets cancelled then why do u care

it’s a function of the new generation coming up having different values than the older ones

the youth generally run hip hop/attribute to the shift in its direction

How often does anyone actually get cancelled in hip-hop though?

Twitter is not and will never be the gatekeepers when it comes to morals in music. People really don’t give af in real life as long as it’s not too severe and 90% of the time it isn’t.

Sorry, which hip hop artists have been cancelled?

i will say though, the idea of cancelling never works

it’s just a twitter activity people partake in for a few days before they find someone else to attack

Stopped reading at “ This is literally a genre that came up off of glorifying a whole lotta bad s*** in general” because that’s a lie.

OP is canceled

bozos taking over man its a damn shame

real

Lmao what? Link

Hypocrisy is the only true democracy OP. Stay Woke

Yes, I rap. I love Hip Hop music. It’s my whole life. I don’t demonize any of the things mentioned in my post. But you can still recognize that something is there and call out the hypocrisy. I hate cancel culture, especially when you consider how truly hypocritical it is.

You tried it tho.
