    being on an island is 100% correct. I know this is a "back in my day" response, but for real - back in my day, hip hop had a regional sound which made it exciting to hear other areas' takes on topics. Now everyone is on the same beats with the same flows wearing the same thing. East coast conscious rap like Tribe didn't look or sound like West coast conscious rap like Pharcyde, but they were on the same wavelength. Southern music hitting the main stream didn't sound like anyone else, and that's what made it dope.
    Hell, even white music sounded different. Nowadays white acts have to have a trap beat to be popular. Shit's weird when the majority sounds the same.

    I think Vince is to young to remember Long Beach pre 06 or bro wasn’t outside cuz I was one of the first mf’s in 06 to put on some skinny’s before lb was known as a city where you can dress crazy. all the OGs got locked up on the same day in 06 in a citywide gang injunction. I saw an interview were he said his most active years were 06-2013 and that’s literally when all the big homies were locked up from every hood. The longos main head was a 15 year old ay the time. The hardest foos in the streets were taggers cuz gangbanging was almost non existent after the Jordan high riots in 05

    I remember rapper D.O.C said something very similar. Hes from Houston, TX but met with Dr. DRE and was flown out to LA to write on Straight Outta Compton. D.O.C said when he went back to Houston months later, he saw the whole culture out there changed after NWA blew up. Everybody out there wanted to gang bang now, which is something that was not prevelant in Houston pre NWa. Just goes to show how much influence music DOES hold both negative pr positive.

    • @Notyouwelder

      The D.O.C. Is a wise dude. Also one of the nicest humble dudes you could ever meet. He’s told me some stories that we even recorded to some beats that are incredible from those days. I wish i could share but I promised too because of the consequences and problems that it could lead to.

We need to surrender to God and to what the sacrifice of Jesus Christ has done for us, to show us the way, the truth and the life, and spread that to others. He is risen now. We need that energy, not the energy of violence, pride and destruction. Glory to the Godhead and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Holy Spirit guide us...SBN NATAN

    I agree to a extent because you cant truly pinpoint one guy or “wave” rap as art has been self destructive ever since them labels came in and made it bout profit back in the 80s. So yes modern rappers have some blame but lets not forget the crack era the gangsta/killer era now we in the junkie era where the crowd is fine watching talent kill themselves slowly for fame/money.

      Long beach has always been a melting pot but with our own style/culture. Technically inside of LA county but always our own thing because it was just different. The two biggest albums from the LBC was snoop dogg’s Doggystyle and Warren G’s Regulate. Long beach had street dudes, punks, a huge gay population, rich ppl, hella skaters, and parts of towns mostly having one race (mexicans and cambodians). Nowadays everyone kinda looks and acts the same. Not too much music coming from here either.

Your not subverting the system by finding creative ways to get codeine you buy it from the drug store and get high at home and if you overdose you can do yourself or you can go to a hospital or a safe injection sight

He's right but he's only scratching the surface, its like hes at the wrong starting line to look at things fully. Hes coming into the "movie" of life at the 3rd quarter. He doesnt have the full context but he's on the right path.

      "See what these kids do is hear about us toting our pistols, and they wanna get one cause they think this shits cool. Not knowing we really just protecting ourselves..." music definitely impacts how people act and think. Lil wayne did it with purp drank. The issue isnt the music though, its the people who misinterpret its meaning. "But still you out in these streets thinking you as hot as can be. Making sure you lame swaggers all polished and clean while your favorite rappers like 'Yeah he got it from me.'" Hopsin and many other rappers realize that they have an impact and try to make it positive. Ill mind of hopsin can really put alot of people in place if theyd actually listen to whats being said.

    It's not BECAUSE of the music. It's about not being raised well. Everyone hears stuff in songs or sees things in movies, but there's a difference between a person who listens/watches and leaves it at that, and someone who is unable to grasp the concept of not emulating everything they hear and see. The difference is upbringing, support systems, education etc. Without those things, it becomes easy to see why so many people in our country are so ignorant. They were given little to no guidance. So they don't see ENTERTAINMENT as what it is, they see it as REALITY.

      No he doesn’t feed into negativity. He speaks on his life experiences and struggles. His work is poetry, for him to get on some 80’s “stay in school” shit would not reflect his lived experience. You must not know about it or the history since this the SAME SHIT whyt ppl were coming at Pac for. They said “Don’t u sing about killing cops?! You tell young children to be cop killers!! 🤡” And he said: No I don’t. I sing about self defense and defending myself against police brutality. There’s a difference.” He’s singing about his neighborhood and the realities…i really can’t give you the whole history of hip hop if you aren’t already caught up i swear…people just hop on 3s clips and can’t/won’t even listen to the music. 🙉
