I used to listen to this kind of music when I was younger. Some beats are nice and the music gives you that "badass" feeling.
But I stopped. I want to have nothing to do with culture that glorifies crime, violence, disregard for society, glorifies "Gentle Giants" but sings "F the police", is only about "me me me and f everyone else", culture thats about glorifying you-lose-i-win instead of win-win.
I stopped after Zimmerman affair. I saw a man who defended himself vilified and persecuted and a thug glorified and that was the last straw for me. I donated to Zimmerman defense fund and decided never to give another dollar to anyone associated with this culture of depravity.
If you have kids who listen to this garbage, have a serious talk with them and explain to them what this music and culture really stand for and glorify.
P.S. Knock out game this.
Shouldn't this be in the 'Movies Forum?'
Nothing personal, but why is your opinion of rap music controversial or political?
See and hear violence everyday so not interested in listening to it nor paying to see it. You'd think through the music and movies no good thing can happen in black lives and I beg to differ. Rappers some of the wealthiest people on the planet and have the resources to help the needy in their own communities.
Didn't see this coming What you don't understand is that people are not afraid of the labels you throw out anymore. You are the racist. You don't think people should be treated equally. You think people with a certain skin color should be given special treatment.
so then why should we give afician american special treatment, why not just treat them like everybody else. why should color give them a free ride. let them work like white folks

What "special treatment" have i received? What "free ride" have i received? Work like white folks? What's that exactly? I know a bunch of white folks that don't do much of anything at work.
I've received like 10 new reps for this thread, yet only a couple of posts support me. This shows there's fear of speaking out about this, even online. Don't be afraid they'll call you a racist. THEY are the REAL racists.
And they are making a crap ton more cash than you, lol!
Like I said, it is "make work". Urban youth have to spend their welfare dollars somewhere.
