Why I'm quitting text, listening to rap, and getting right physically, mentally, and spiritually
The lyrics of today perpetuate hate and death. The symbols, the videos, the culture...it's evil. I thought I would never say this. My grandfather who was basically my pops told me this in my teens and I looked at him like he was a crazy old hater lol.
I'm 36 now. The things I've learned.....it's all apart of manifesting the image of the beast in physical form. 666, devil worship, satan. Even the gang signs. It's all occult, all ritualistic. Wish it weren't true but it is. Death, self-destruction, hate, uncleanliness. It's all manifesting at a rate that's just to evident for me to deny anymore. Even the lyrics in text. I've seen it transcend from an expressional art of competing lyrically to just shooting, raping, stabbing blah blah blah...and I was good at it. Sure it was a progression of sorts and I was a participator, an advocate even. Just not in me anymore. I've lived hiphop since like forever. Loved this shit, but I see it for what it is, for what it was always going to be honestly. Nothing starts and ends the same This evil I'm speaking of, it's in everything that you choose to saturate your spirit with. All forms of intake, it's your choice. My choice is to cleanse myself of this wickedness that's infiltrated the music, movies, cultural idealism, blah blah blah. I've been a great father, but I've gotta lead more by example when it comes to this stuff. Not to mention, I know as the biblical narrative plays out and draws near an end, the rate to which evil will begin to manifest itself will be so broad it will feel overwelming, which I've been seeing for a couple years now. I'll still be around to converse in the disc on matters of positivity and betterment but no more text and rap for me.

Likely the same area of disconnect that leads one to believe he was good at text

the part I think you're missing is that most of the negative associations you have with hip hop e.g. violence, drugs, assaults on women are derived from the very real conditions that continue to exist in urban communities which many people are forced into. It began with people just talking about the reality around them for better or worse and eventually turned into a bunch of middle class suburban white kids who spend most of their time online trying to figure out to turn other peoples struggles into trash wordplays

This is hands down the least intellectual and dumbest shit I've read about rap, ever. No joke.
You're making it out to be like NO RAPPER out there talks about politics, positivity, good messages, that there ain't religious rappers speaking the heartwarming words of God or Allah or whatever else is out there. NOPE. You just have to generalize shit. There is no colors in this mindset, only black and white and shades of bullshit which is the only refreshing quality that is amassed in your text block of utter self ridicule. It seems more to me that the problem isn't that you were into rap, but what you took away from it, what you learned and which artists you listened to and how it affected you giving 0 thought of your own actions blaming it on that. Raise your kid well and you could listen to Death Metal from ex-church burners, or will your kid start burning churches because you give a bad example by listening to a certain artist? I live in Norway, a shitload of kids grow up on artists that have done that shit, kids doing this shit isn't a problem for us cus it basically never happens. You would tell your kid to not burn churches if you or them listened to Heavy Metal, right? Or do you really think it affects your kid enough to go ahead and do it regardless cus they did it? In which case, I feel bad for your kid for the neglect he must have went through to reach that stage. gtfo, this is fucking bullshit. Seems to me you're concerned you won't raise your kid right and blame it on hiphop. Or as Ice Cube said in terms of gangsta rap: Usually I like your ramblings because the majority of the time they have some thoughts to them that are interesting to either think about, or delve deeper into even if I don't agree with it. This, however, completely exposed your lack of self awareness and logical thinking in a way I didn't think members of a hiphop board could ever do. And me along with a bunch of others here have survived at least two prolonged episodes with Dia so it speaks volumes. Not only did you throw hiphop under the bus, but your thoughts about your own parenting skills as well. Teach the kid to think for himself and you got nothing to worry about, if anything, you not listening/liking rap will probably draw them towards it, lol. Do whatever gives you joy and write good shit fueled with positivity. A good role model don't just speak words but become the change they wants to see for their kids when it comes down to it. Write shit, listen to other artists that ain't satanists or heathens or whatever you have issues with and you're golden. What's the purpose of this post anyways? To say that some rappers are violent or glorifies crime? No fucking shit but it's far from all of them.

I honestly think rap started going downhill when the Afro Centrism undertones where abandoned. Without any cultural symbolism it became a machine. The Artist(like the executives) began to focus on making profits.
Backpacker rap music has more heart but its lacking a culture. That's just my opinion. |
