Tired of bama type hip hop
« Thread Started on Nov 24, 2008, 5:36pm »

This stuff is some trash and I don't like it.
It's like some stuff straight from a coon factory and black people
seem to loving this trashy,ignorant stuff.
Overall it's very mentally destructive to a lot of young black people.
I would never let me kid's bring the trash in my house at all.
I am talking about souljah boy,jeezy and the rest of this
southern style coonery,monkeyshine clown show that so many
black people think is so hip.
It's a disgrace to the legacy of

1. Marcus Garvey
2. Malcolm X
3. Harriet Tubman
4. Denmark Vesey

and many other's who died and suffered so we could live better
on the planet as a race of people.

I agree 100% with problackfist, It's about time black people wake up an start writing and singing about something positive, because with all this negativity and so called HIP-HOP crap, the man is using this to throw back in your face. Yes a lot of them are making money but within ten years more than half will be broke, Either from mismanagement, or one of the Alphabet brothers (FBI, IRS, GOV.) Or Child Support Services will have it all.

Real talk, Shakeman. Check the list of rappers who were hot ten years ago and most of them are broke and on blocks. Eventually, maybe some will see that selling out is a short term avocation.

I agree. I am not a huge fan of hip-hop and the rap world. But we just can't single out rap and not address the images of Black people in the media. We can't down rap music and then laugh our asses off at a Wayans brother movie. We can't find rap lyrics disgusting and then sit in front of the TV and watch Real Chance at Love.
Perception is reality! When non-Blacks, and heck, some of us too, see these programs they believe this is who we are. It's so much more than just "bama" type hip hop. It's a "bama" mentality that some folks seem to be stuck on.
