I posted on Reddit a while back that we need to take a stand in preserving Hip-Hop/Rap culture, and we gotta stop accepting this notion that violence needs to be synonymous with it. I got a bunch of clowns saying that I was overreacting, and that's just the way things are. Imagine we're okay with the potential of never hearing someone's favorite rapper ever again because they were KILLED.
I don't give a damn how sensitive I sound; I love hip-hop/rap/trap anything where someone puts 16 bars together over a beat. I'm tired of this, we have the opportunity to make a change. If we don't support the violence, guys will rap about something else. It's economics at this point. No genre gotta go through this. I only knew Trouble through Lupe's "Chopper" song (he BLACKS on that), and a Dave East feature on a mixtape, but bro was talented, and at the end of the day, a human. We gotta do better. Not just everyone, myself included.
People say you need to move from where you're from. That applies to Atlanta also.
Move to Houston, Vegas or Miami.
Those places burnt out too.
Ain't nobody blaming rap, but ya'll acting like J Cole and Kendrick are universally beloved. They're the first two dudes who get written off as boring or corny because they talk about "other stuff".
What's the root issue?
Say he killed him over some p*ssy
I get the general sentiment, but just cuz a rapper dies doesn’t always mean it was related to the music or we gotta talk about violent lyrics…Especially when there’s no real details yet with the latest passingI posted on Reddit a while back that we need to take a stand in preserving Hip-Hop/Rap culture, and we gotta stop accepting this notion that violence needs to be synonymous with it.

Remember all these dudes are ppl and gotta deal with real life ****, most ain’t in rap character 24/7
Pretty much. It's actually rare that cats die cause of "Rap". They're just experiencing **** that every day people go through (home invasions, setup chicks, domestic jealousy cases etc.). The only one that appears to stem from rap may be the Dolph situation.I get the general sentiment, just cuz a rapper dies doesn’t always mean it was related to the music or we gotta talk about violent lyrics…Especially when there’s no real details yet with the latest passing
