But but I thought the older heads was dealers not users

That’s the era I’m from - late 90’s.

****, I wouldn’t even wanted to touch my hands bare.

I thought it was common knowledge that crack and cocaine were both social drugs, just at two completely different price points.

Crack definitely didn't have nearly the stigma it has not back then, and people used it a lot more casually. The way it's looked at has evolved a ton since the 80s. When it first hit the scene, it was a party drug.

When didn't it have a stigma? In 1986?

 

[Magic33]

Yeah, because DMX addiction issues have been glorified and he talked about it promoting it for the past 25 years.

I still don’t understand...why anyone...is using R. Kelly to die on this hill with. Hell...use Bill Cosby or someone. But using Kellz to play the “Dey treatin da black men wrong” card is nasty.

 

[Mark Antony]

There was a def a warming up period to crack before people started fiending out and looking crazy. Like any drug.

Don't you guys have your own thread!

Y'all remind me of the girl who thinks she's fire only because she has a fat butt

Faux elitist attitudes when it comes to rap for absolutely NO REASON

No shade at all, but all major cities got that going on right now. U ride around my city, everybody blasting local rappers and it’s a dozen plus of em bubbling and a few got on. I’m happy ny got some **** going on finally. Y’all went thru a identity crisis for a minute.

Even Bill isn't the best hill either

Imagine smoking heroin as a fashion statement in the golden era. Turk kept it real on what it was.

NYC has ALWAYS blasted local rappers man, people in the city still listen to & want artist who remind them of the city. The radio doesn't really get behind it much and that is understandable because the radio doesn't care what the clubs & "streets" are listening too, they want what's popular to the regular 9-5 person.

NYC is one of the most mixed places in the world & one of the biggest tourist spots in the world, so radio definitely tries to focus more on a global sound as opposed to a smaller market that tries to bring up the up & coming artist.

Griselda been grinding & getting spins for 4-5 years now, same with the NYC drill, Same with Highbridge, A$AP and tons of more underground cats who have built solid and loyal fanbases

Smoke Dza, Flatbush zombies, Bodega Bamz etc etc, The city ****s with them all. But whe your in a city as crowded as this one it's extremely difficult for one artist to capture the entire city at one time.

Do any of you watch Snowfall?

What was social about crack?

 

[Magic33]

I don't get the they abuse women, so we should be able to abuse them too argument.

You should be exposed, embarrassed and shunned.

 

[iamdef]

Sauce Walka gabbich man. Maxo wayyyyyyyyyy better. I would never drive, windows down, jamming his music. Man sucks.

maxo >>>>>>>

Been avoiding listening to that Maxo "Brandon Banks" album but every time a song comes on during my Library shuffle I'm always really enjoying dude. He's def better than Sauce, but Sauce held his on on that "Brazy Crazy". I'd take album with the both of em no questions

Bro they even allude to it on Snowfall, many of those people started getting hooked at a young age after getting introduced at parties & while drinking. **** was viewed as a party drug until people saw the outcome of addiction.

Pills are literally heroin & people routinely pop them in a party atmosphere
