Barack & Curtis

After watching stanos's post below, I found this vid by the same guy.
Both raise some very interesting points.



When "gangsta" rap started to pervade Hip-Hop, I personally stopped listening to a lot of it because it didn't speak to me about what I believe, although there were exceptions of course.
Lets hope that people can take back Hip-Hop and realise that while if you asked some rappers if they love black people (or people in general) they would say yes, while at the same time talking about killing them and restricting what it is acceptable that they can do.
They are puppets for The Man and they might say "I'm just makin money for my kids", or "if people keep buying it they must want it" etc, but they need to stand up and take responsibility for their words.
If you just go along with it you are part of the problem.
