I've been saying this for 30 years. I was a young teenager when gangster rap blew up, and I could immediately recognize that it was intended to corrode and divide our culture like psychedelic music did in the 60's. I hated being around it in the 90's, but my friends wouldn't stop playing it. It made them feel strong and confident, but it quickly took over their personalities. I knew many kids who ended up dead or in jail after adopting the gangster lifestyle. I had a schoolmate who was 16 when he got himself shot in the head and killed after a dispute over a drug deal. I had a childhood friend from church who got himself sniped and killed by the SWAT team after breaking into a house and wouldn't surrender. I was friends with one who joined a gang at 18 then later imprisoned for life for executing a rival gang member in cold blood. I knew another kid who at 18 went to jail for drug dealing, then got out at 21 and chose to get suicided by cop instead of going back to jail. All except one of these kids were white, and they all came from middle to upper class families.
But what this music did to inner city black culture was worse. Before gangster rap, black music was funk and R&B, which were fun and beautiful. Gangster rap took that culture down a dark path that arrived at this current point where over 50% of all murders are committed by less than 2% of the US population which are young black men in the city. It's the largest contributor of the decline of black culture after government welfare programs.
And all this runs through my head whenever I see that amoral piece of shit Snoop Dog doing Corona commercials.
It's infuriating when I see good people jamming out to gangster rap and reciting the lyrics. Of all the revelations that come out of the Great Awakening, I want the true intentions of gangster rap to be popularly known.
Contender for post of the day and it's only 8.30am in the morning here. 'Gangsta rap' and all its subsequent offshoots are protozoic sewage - when something is aurally alone so ugly, aggressive and inculcatingly tribal, there's not much hope for its contribution to culture.
I also felt this way about what I call 'angry white boy music'. They're both garbage.
Someone pointed out a few years ago that one of the reasons rap, particularly gangsta rap took off with whites is because it was the only masculine thing they were allowed to like.
The angry white boy stuff doesn't glorify murder like gangster rap. That's what made gangster rap especially evil: Kids suddenly believed murdering someone was admirable. I saw that and couldn't believe the culture I was living in.
Grunge was good. It stemmed from Gen X'ers dealing with the fallout of their Boomer parents doing drugs and divorcing. It was honest music with masculine grit that flushed away the party music that was hair metal.
There will always be Kool-Aid. Nobody drinks it who doesn't want to in the first place. The gateway is always at the lips.
If the people understood, would they care? How many people still smoke? How many people take drugs? We are not victims if we walk off the cliff under our own power.
JINOS -- Jews In Name Only -- I love it. I remember seeing somebody suggest it on the board a few weeks ago and was like, "Right on". Happy to see somebody use it. It's an excellent easy way to get across a complex reality.
This topic directly relates to a point that Alan Watt made repeatedly in his broadcasts. All of our entertainment comes from the top down, not organically from the ground up. Our governments and entertainment industries are controlled by the same people (no, not the Jews), and these people must maintain control of the culture at every facet.
Watt worked in the music industry and wrote songs that ended up being hits, though he couldn't reveal them under NDA. But he knew members of Led Zeplin and other big names, and he witnessed these entertainers at parties as they honored and acted deferentially toward the cabal members and their priests.
It's what they always do. They take something fringe, which is fringe because it's essentially societal degradation if it becomes mainstream.
They then hijack it, promote it using all the channels available to them {which is every channel}, call it truth, or street knowledge, or the unheard voices of the underground, promote it through a white "star" a free years in, and cash in.
The 80s contained a fair amount of gangsta rap, but it was maybe 10 percent of all records released. Ice T, too short, even the Beastie boys spoke about having guns drugs and things like that in 86. There was lots of rapping about being in the streets with gangs because the 80s saw the biggest increase in gang violence in history. {Because if drug dealing on a massive scale, but that's another topic} Even grandmaster Melle Mel as early as'82 touched on that stuff.
However the tIipping point was NWA in 88-89. Their ascent was no accident. No radio play yet the record begins to sell? due to the massive underground "grass roots" movement?
Around the same time, you had Kool G rap and the Geto Boys on the east coast with perhaps the filthiest and ugliest rap to ever come out. Go listen to it and be amazed how utterly depraved the albums from Kool G Rap are.
And they also sold well.
And who were the main buyers of the filth? The majority were white people, teens specifically.
That's the target audience. Why do you think that is?
Ghetto Boys came from Houston, which was the source of some of the ugliest underground gangster rap.
You're right about NWA. They were promoted in the music magazines like Spin and Rolling Stone, and also at the record stores. These were controlled/influenced by the record industry. Parents had no way to detect it since it was not on the radio.
The first Beastie Boys song mentioning a gun is Paul Revere.
"Quick on the draw, I thought I'd be dead
He put the gun to my head and this is what he said
"Now my name is MCA, I got a license to kill
I think you know what time it is, it's time to get ill"
All sorts of shit happened to blacks around that time frame. They had the highest rate for marriages staying together over any other race. The crack epidemic hits. Gansta rap. Incentives to be welfare queens. Getting arrested at higher rates to break up the family unit(I know they commit crimes at a higher rate, but some of the arrests are horseshit).
And that's just what I know. If I was alive back then I probably would have caught other things that contributed to their demise.
They're doing the same shit to white people. Opioid epidemic. Turning women against men and brainwashing people into not having kids. Worshiping hookup culture so a whole bunch of single moms raise their boys(91% of violent criminals lack a father figure). Trying to turn the population against whites.
And going back to the black issue. I refuse to believe mumble rap is liked by them or organic.

Spot on!!!
I wish more people understood how engineered our culture is.
This came about at the same time private prisons were built, the prisons had no customers so gangsta rap was invented to provide them.
Much the same reason as why the insane asylums were closed, to provide an industry with customers

JINO?
Jews In Name Only?
Yeah. My new favorite acronym.

Nah, "I got a jammy in my pocket so you better stay cautious, flying around the world kind of makes me nauseous"
Correct about Geto Boys I always equate them with East Coast.. I guess because they weren't west
It is indeed license to Ill, and to an extent Paul's boutique. {Both are great by the way}
They spoke of jammy{gun} in the pocket, angel dust and that sort of stuff.
And that's what I'm saying though, it was all being mentioned, sometimes spoofing, sometimes not, before the big gangsta rap explosion
Rick Rubin+three Jewish kids who played punk to that point=
Don't forget Russell Simmons who is referenced doing dust in the back of the bus.
They left def jam after license to Ill

New Jack Swing was probably the last organic black music genre, and they killed that quick.
Yep. Good stuff. It was a natural evolution of R&B, but they had to kill it.
And look at what r&b became.
