Removing racist songs is like trying to erase history. Not a good idea

I remember watching a Gangland episode on YT about a Asian gang called ABZ and they just robbed other Asian family business become they knew they kept cash and gold at home lol

“Hang around a lot of gang bangin' ass niggas
Crip, Blood, blue or red, what you bang, nigga?
You might got a pistol but this stick is way bigger
I call it KKK 'cause my choppa hate niggas

Yo I hope you guys aren’t that desensitized to anti black lyrics that bars like this are sub-consciously glossed over.

As a black man, I can’t listen to that song because of the hook lol. It’s the text book definition of anti-black.

I can understand how middle America would keep nodding their heads to it but nah lol

That Jay-Z stereotype is bad and so is this YG line

My Krazy Life a classic

There's actual anti-black songs out here don't muddy the water because 21 Savage wanted to make a weak ass metaphor @YSL_

did i say it wasn't?

YG is underrated in general. Too bad he’s putting out TikTok raps now

Sensationalist journalist takes advantage of media cycle moment. Ever-changing society is increasingly more OK with censoring art.

Beyond me how you could see something like a major rapper (in this situation, Jay-Z) perpetuating that jews hold own all property in America as "insignificant"

That s*** is f***ed up

Calling your choppa KKK because it hates niggas is hate speech bro..

I can’t downplay what that bar insinuates especially given the context of the song and the song title.

Sorry fam 🤷🏾‍♂️

not saying they should remove the song I’m just saying It’s disrespectful to say “asians are doing the most to be oppressed”

I think we could look at real life as a good example. When you commit a crime there's different levels (first degree, second degree, etc) and different punishments for each. It's not black and white and neither should the internet. Blanket bans don't address the issues they just censor them without anyone learning or understanding from them. With that in mind I don't think it's applying rules selectively at all. A human should review the case and judge instead of an AI or automatic system.

Calling an insignificant song by a mediocre artist "history" is embarrassing

you calling yg mediocre?

Find a Chinese neighborhood
'Cause they don't believe in bank accounts

This line is so wild lmao

Transition outro is so good though

True but who are we to speak for Asians?

And to be fair, they spoke out against the skit back in 2014.
I see their take but it’s truly a slippery slope.

But by your argument this song doesn't break TOS since they make an exception for videos that are artistic, which this song falls under.

Wrong

what about this one?
