Like a Super Bowl performance could just be “ aight I’m a major artist I’m going to do a concert that night and live stream “ you don’t owe those white eyes or corporate sponsors nothing

Don’t bite the hand that feeds u

This is nothing new and nothing crazy

Meh

Wanting actual progress from black or non white leaders who care about more than money isn’t a bad thing

Whole country full of the blind leading the blind as we march into a fiery damnation (LATESTAGECAPITALISM)

a. I never disagreed
b. Why bring it up when it has nothing to do with my statement
c. You thought you’d see progress in the halls of corporatism?

C . No

So why engage with the clown show at all

Because this is music sxn not social progress sxn

It shouldn’t take world war 3 for people to move differently

Hip hop used to be about progress not just money touching black hands but progress for us all

Ain’t that the true culture ?

Why I’m letting an Afghani tell me about my investment in my culture I don’t know

Wanting hip hop or rap to still speak truth to power rather than sign deals with power isn’t a bad thing

Rocnation will crumbleeeeeeeee!!!!!

a minor

When you block Condom eyes so you can enjoy things without him telling you why you’re the worst person on the planet for doing so.

That’s really not what I said at all

I will be watching

Me not liking Jay Z and calling watch the party die eye rolling doesn’t change that it won’t be on your Apple Music replay because it’s not even on streaming

Ignorance is bliss to all of us even myself
I got no problem with you blocking me

Feeling the need to gloat about it as if im personally attacking you for having a different opinion

Money is part of the equation of what pulls people out of poverty

The success of a rapper positively impacts a village that most don’t see

One successful artist has the potential to employ dozens of individuals in need from their neighborhood and this does happen

That one individual they helped can then raise their families comfortably.

That’s exponential growth and progress no?

I know whose feet the wind didn't sweep off of

Look at jayz capitalizing on racial tensions within the NFL.

For the guy who once rapped "I'm not black I'm O.J.....okay"

He sure jumped at the chance to bail the NFL out when the kaepernick saga was going on

So when Jay Z opened an arena that lead to greater gentrification what was that fammo

Then singing gentrify your own hood lol

Clown ass s***

Exactly

The success of Jay Z gentrifying a neighborhood helps people priced out of that neighborhood ?

Respectfully bro im not sure what that has to do with your original question regarding money and hip-hop?

My post was more of a general response of your question and not towards Hov specifically

Im sure the homeless rate didn’t increase drastically after Barclays center creation

I’m sure like the Obama center coming to us yes great for black peoples to be priced out of their homes
