Hip Hop is a threat to society

yo,


I just wanna drop a few lines before I leave :


I was growing up with hiphop,rap and basketball. Lots of basketball. and lots of hiphop . A looot. You can not seperate basketball from hip hop . It was hip hop day and night.

Now, thinking back, I realised that hiphop,rap is the biggest piece of sh** to music!!
it is a disgrace and a shame to even use this wonderful technology that we have these days in order to produce this kind of "music" .

. yes the beats are great and you can dance to them very well. But each and every song is all about: making (ilegal) money, about hoes, jewelry, violation, aggression, brutalitity, degrading women .
The message of every song is " I am better than you, you are nothing" or "i got more money, more houses,cars" which is sooo ridiculous!!!
These iliterate rappers need to wake up and see the real enemy within . = The industry which is only supporting such music because it does not stop the flow of money. Because it has no message at all.

Now, as an educated human being who has lifted to veil of duality i know that...
This music only causes seperation, crime, rape, racism, iliteracy, misogyny, divorce etc etc

And as long as people keep listening to it they will remain like the "singers" . = Dump and numb.

I am sooo glad im out of the gutter.

As is the case with most genres of music that have a level of commercial success, they tend to become bloated and a caricature of the formative movement/genre/culture. Rap has always had that flair for boasting but imo, the modern radio (t)rap, doesn't really have much of an edge to it anymore, even when they are rapping about guns and shit. I'm not sure if it has to do with like the auto tuning, how polished the production sounds now or what. Maybe it loosing that edge is just a function of time.

However, I think there is quite a bit of versatility in hip hop lyrics now, it's just that a lot of the other stuff, aside from the themes of separation you mention tend to be underground.

 

I find this amusing...

 

Bust a left nut, right nut in her jaw
Sperm on her cheeks is all ya saw
She could blow more head than a whale blows water
Blowjob Betty was dumb
A fiend for a fuck and a mouth full of cum
But then I shot that fatal nut
Must of knocked that bitch on her butt

 

i agree

hip hop in my opinion got one of the best beats to dance to .
Thanks to great producers like scott storch or timberland.
Think of mystical-shake ya ass, ludacris- southern hospitality, ja rule-put it on me

But the lycrics are garbage.

2pac was becoming politically influential and was about to make a change in the black american community. Thats why they shot him.
But ever since then, hip hop is going downwards. Meaningless

and dont forget out of rap evolved TRAP , that is the electronic version of Rap. Without the vocals. Great bass. Great Beats. We have it all over here in europe. Great pump for workout!

 

lol thats exactly what i mean
i know too short. he was also on my playlist back then... horrible horrible

i was so much so influenced by the image of women they portray in hip hop.
I figured you dont get as many girls when you tell them " ey bitch get down". They kinda dont like that

 

remember bone thugs n harmony?
i was a child in school when listening to them, and i still like their hit "crossroads" . it never gets bored. listen to the lyrics. beautiful. beautiful message. compare with today lol

 

hip hop can be so beautiful

I could listen to this song all day! It was number 1 for many months

 

Nigga all y'all records sound the same
I'm sick of that fake thug, R & B
Rap scenario all day on the radio
Same scenes in the video, monotonous material
Y'all don't hear me though
These record labels slang our tapes like dope
You can be next in line, and signed
And still be writing rhymes and broke
You would rather have a Lexus or justice
A dream or some substance
A Beamer, a necklace or FREEDOM

rap is way better than basketball.

 

Yeah, basketball is whack as fuck.

 

I gotta admit that I really enjoy both rap and hip hop, no shame. Sure, the lyrics can be over the top, materialistic, and vulgar, but I try not to take everything so seriously. And some rappers are truly gifted poets and artists with lyrics that really blow me away.

 

Fuck you...UK rules!!!

 

I'm going to try and defend Too Short here Cause I like some of his music and he's from the Bay Area, where I grew up. When Too Short, as well as some of the other obscene rappers of the time came out, there was a hard push for censoring music from like the PRMC and Nancy Regan and so in some ways, that perhaps are not the most obvious or refined now, I think rappers such as Too Short, in a way, stood for freedom of expression in music.

For social commentary from Too Short checkout:

 

Can't stand most hip hop. It's not music it's a hustle and the rappers will tell you that. It's easier then selling crack with less risk. It's a way out of the hood. But if it did not make money they would not do it. That's not what a musician does. Also they can neither sing or play anything.

 

nice rhyms bro, who wrote em?

 

heidi klum?
uhm, yeah, i was addicted to basketball!! not kidding, can do all kinddzzzzz of dunks , even 360,

but one day i realised how stupid nonsense activity it is, all this sweating just to stuff a little - made in china - rubber ball into a basket. While risking broken noses (happened) , twisting ankles (happened), broken fingers (happened) .
You can make better use of your time by sitting on a toilett bowl than doing that.

 

well, you better take it seriously !!!!!!

it is affecting you subliminally,unconscioulsy trust me ! !!!!!!!!
