UPDATE:

He heard fivio's verse this morning

The mayor said he asked his son about the music, and he sent him some videos.

LMFAOOO

nah it’s getting bad in ny tho

it’s not the music specifically but the people involved have been going crazy

good decision

This is the right move tbh if you from around NY you know how bad it’s gotten in BK particularly last few years

Free kay flock

thats cool too think but its the NYPD they gonna do some f***shit in the name of 'stopping' crime

The media loves to act like all rappers are gang members when in reality all gang members are rappers. Gangs are the problem, not rap.

Yeah the music’s been fueling this s*** for years. Sucks because it’s great music too

nyc really voted in a cop and now they acting shocked he's behaving like a cop

This literally sounds like he wants to bring stop and frisk back

Did he even hide the fact he’s more of a cop than a liberal

Blame the music and not the community’s resources, brehs

Yeah we blaming the music

The music is a product of it all

But will it be different if theres no drill? They will still kill each other

This type of music goes hand-in-hand with the crimes & murders in NY

Music plays a big part in the way people perceive and carry themselves. Lets stop undermining the impact music has on us. That’s not to say it’s 100% the fault of the music tho

You say the same bout some other violent subgenres of rap?

Drill can def be a problem, but its not THE real problem here

Obviously it starts with community resources, increased funding for community programs, etc. but the music has also had an undeniable effect on setting the culture. Both could be true.

F*** that mayor

Cutting WWE promos in his speeches n s***
