Yea. Folks gotta stop blaming music. There are just wicked human beings out there.

jesus christ

he's signed to rap-a-lot so yea that's implied

the people involved in it dont want it changed anyway so its a pointless argument really

Damn that’s some cold heart s*** Jesus

I hate ya’ll

wow

Damn watch what u speak into existence fr

@ 6:57

Wow lol.......

first 20 seconds

s*** crazy

Just found out I’m related to this dude.

You related to the grandparents as well?

Eh, I agree that accountability has to be brought to the forefront but at the same time, it's hard as hell to start when the powers that be are STILL pushing this s*** though through bullshit police policies and imprisoning all the elders that would've kept these gangs and factions in check tho.

• about chicago's "black on black" violence.

"Of course crime and violence always gon be there to a degree with any demographic"

yeah, THAT's what we trying to change. Once you change that, the music will change by default.

Rap has always been a reflection of what society is at large since Kool Herc threw that party lol. When the 70s everyone was doing coke and 'ludes and turning tf up. So, you had a bunch of party music. When the Message came out in the 80s, we was fresh into the crack epidemic and cities like the Bronx still dealing with the aftereffects of the 70s. And so on and so forth.

And idk, after watching Judas and the Black Messiah. I just find it a lil dishonest that when we've seen black leaders ACTIVELY try to make a change in the hood and do everything yall say black people don't do, get taken out by the government....

to turn around and say black people gotta do more lol.

"Yo Mos, what's gettin ready to happen with Hip-Hop?"
I tell em, "You know what's gonna happen with Hip-Hop?
Whatever's happening with us"
If we smoked out, Hip-Hop is gonna be smoked out
If we doin alright, Hip-Hop is gonna be doin alright

Are niggas alright in 2021?

Y’all keep bringing up crime in the 70’s and s*** but it was codes to whatever niggas was doing they wasn’t killing black grandmothers and kids lol

I’ve already posted them on this page so scroll up but Brazy was out here talking about waking niggas grandmas up with the chopper on multiple instances lol

I don’t want it to get misconstrued like I’m just ignoring the 100+ years of f***ery from the powers that be leading up to right now but lol I’m just saying we gotta decide as a culture whether we like gangsta s*** or not. It was cool when brazy was popping that hot s*** and that propelled him to this level but when it actually happens niggas turn into Al Sharpton lol.

Skip to 16:20 here a dude actually 8 miles away from where this happened does a great breakdown of the f***ery surrounding this s***.

Except it wasn't codes to s*** in the 70s either.

Remember Huey Newton confessed he ordered the hit on Van Patter (a white woman that Elaine had hired as a bookkeeper for the BPP) and before they killed her she was beaten and raped.

Maulana Karenga kidnapped and tortured a woman in '71 my nigga.

Tookie and Raymond Washington was both 18 when they formed the crip alliance so kids was banging/dying back then too. Even if at first there was structure to who was being hit. And you acknowledge the reason there's no structure is because all the elders and leaders are either dead or in jail.

Brazy was in off record beef that he brought on wax. If he never said none of that s*** on wax and this still happens, will you blame the audience?

Yes. His grandma is my father’s cousin. She actually used to babysit my older sister. Her & my dad actually used to live together in New Jersey.

this type of rap aint even the biggest selling type of rap anymore. As soon as Kendrick, Drake, and Cole even THINK of dropping an album, all that "hip hop promotes this as the popular" narrative aint gonna be able to exist.

@AeezusYe my condolences man.

Thanks my g.

what the hell

I don’t condone what you say Huey did but him doing that to a white woman who presumably was an outsider/informant (not familiar with the situation so IDK why else he would go to those lengths or if the dudes he sent to do whatever did the extra s*** on their own) is not the same as not touching black kids and grandmothers.

Isolated kidnappings, rapings and torturings is a separate convo from having a code when engaging in “street s***” in the black community at the time.

When I say kids I’m talking about actual children not pre teens who jumped out there and started banging. And moreso the concept of they not finna shoot up this cookout with women and children to get one dude or a group of dudes. Niggas don’t think like that now.

As far as the rap s*** being a factor, yes I’m sure these niggas would still be into it without the rap music but it gets different when you start talking local disrespect on records that white kids make Tik Toks too and the world doesn’t know that a hook or saying or whatever is actually disrespect. That fuels the hate from “oh I’ll catch ol boy when I see him” when u just some regular street nigga to “by any means we gotta stop this nigga from shining regardless”

Of course niggas would still be beefing but the rap s*** give it a stage and just like anytime niggas get in front of an audience the stakes get higher and niggas act crazier.

Again dude in the video I linked up there is from the area and speaks on this exact thing.
