Yaaaassss!!!! They don’t get this yet, but it they didn’t start making art from what they want to happen instead of what they see happening, things would drastically change, but you can’t make people see what they don’t want to see. 🤷🏾♀️
That's misdirection by Trevor Noah... DEMOCRATS use the symptoms for political leverage and to control the black vote. They ab-so-lutely Do Not want the root causes actually discussed and fixed. That's why "pRoGrEsSiVeS" absolutely hate and detest black conservatives... it destroys their power dynamic. Learn you some Thomas Sowell
The best piece of advice that anybody who wants to write (books, movies, music, etc.) is to write what you know. Now you're telling a bunch of artists that the things they know and live are inappropriate for the general public. If that's the case then the question becomes why are they forced to live it when most people aren't even supposed to watch or hear it?
why so many action movies, video games have violence in them but we still watch/play them... glad that Trevor put some history in it. I think Marilyn Manson's music was also targeted back in the day. Oh well.
Best point! Kids are growing up in poverty, war, violence and oppression, but they are not supposed to talk about it? Make art about it? Work through their feelings through music? Coz it might offend. I'm offended that ppl are forced to live in such dangerous situations. evils of capitalism. Again.

Gangs comprising of teenagers who live couple of blocks appart, literally killing eachother at alarming rates, what's even more disturbing is fans / trolls on social media egging these rappers to do reprisals.
Drill is all around the globe right now, USA, France, UK, the Netherlands, Italy, Sweden, Australia, just to name a few countries. It originated in Chicago, but in my opinion the UK (especially London) really made it blow up with their beats. Music wise, the UK got it even worse than the USA, because certain drill rappers have to bleep lines out of their raps because police investigate them and you can actually get arrested because of that. You can find a lot of talent in drill music, but unfortunately a lot of violence as well. It's a real dark world, but also shows you the struggles people live with.

Thank you for videos like this Trevor. As a 30-something year old white guy, even after looking up drill rap I didn’t understand it and only thought that it needed to be gotten under control.

Trevor, things were a lot worse 55 years ago but you had Motown and soul. Positive vibes in music. One thing though. Most families stayed together. That makes a big difference.
This is always been an issue with street rappers know what they're doing. that rap music is not a healthy outlet for them all it is is a way for them to continue to thrive off of the chaos and menacing and violence that they bring to our communities but have money now to establish more power through the hood it's time for us to take back our streets
While none of this is new, thank you for making such a poignant, understandable, and hilarious breakdown of this issue 🙏🏾 Also, Roy’s spittin’ hot fire 🔥
The same thing happened with "gangsta" rap...and the argument is still the same...every action movie is drill rap without rhymes..John Wick,The Transporter etc..to me it's all propaganda until you go after the root.
@@ExplosionChimp YES! You, have seen kids emulate " John Wick!" The most likely ones that are being the best" emulation" of it is ...The, Mass Shootings in the... schools! Remember that, He! Kills, in a rage and many men while searching for the primary purpose and Target!
@@ExplosionChimp exactly! It happens! This rap is just like that! It happened! Actually it happened before that! In 1974 a white kid killed 8 students at his school in Alabama!
People create their own reality and the reality is that if you promote violence then your going to get what you are promoting! Bring back consciousness in Hip Hop!
When it comes to violent/ gangster rap none of us are innocent. The labels (if theyre signed) should be held responsible as well because if it wasnt lucrative it wouldnt have gone mainstream.
It wouldn’t be lucrative if we weren’t listening to it and making it lucrative. Everyone wants to point to some conspiracy while they rock out to a song about dead opps 🤷🏾♂️
I think one issue which is less talked about is the fact that kids who grow up in safe neighborhoods and they start listening to the music start wanting to be part of streets because they think it’s cool. But the reality is that the once you grow up in the streets you don’t want to be there forever. You want out eventually and you lose the opportunity. The kids who grow up in middle class neighborhoods will never know what the songs are really about and they think that gangs are cool do to current pop culture.
This comment is underrated and is exactly the way I feel. This is exactly why you can literally go nowhere to escape violence. It's so mainstream! Movies, video games, music, etc. The issue is that not enough of us truly hate violence.
When Trevor said "the best dis tracks don't even mention names" my mind immediately went to Taylor Swift and then he actually said her name and I just lost it! This was gold!
What? I can't believe this guy had this job, he's never said anything funny. Comedy is so bad now, no wonder comedy central's best ratings are old sitcoms they bought.
I just held a 2-hour learning session on root causes of injustice. It went well, but I'm seriously considering just playing this clip and seeing where the discussion goes.
For a fraction of the artists that may absolutely be true. But there are a lot of artists out there as well who just make up stories, desperately seeking for attention, pity or respect. Simply stating that it’s an expression of what’s going on would be naïve
Thank you for explaining this issue so clearly. I now understand that those fools at large have mixed up cause and effect, because they are not genuinely interested in solving underlying issues.
That's so true. These same things were said when rap started, when rock 'n roll started, and probably when jazz started back in the 1900's The music is not the cause of the problem, the real problems are what have always been societal problems: poverty, racism, lack of access to decent health care, police brutality, sexism, pollution, and others. These have always been the real societal ills, not the music that people have created to express their feelings about it. And rap has been always been connected with violence, since it was invented by black people who grew up in violent areas of the cities they were from. Not all of them, but some.
That rap at the end really brings it home to middle/upper class white people what the whole point of Trevor's dialog was. All those privileges called out that should be available for everyone. Thanks for this! Terrific work.
It’s a faulty argument to say that because violence existed before drillrap, drillrap can’t be the root cause of violence and therefore we shouldn’t fight it. Pretending as if there can only be one cause for violence. Drill rap can without a doubt motivate people to be violent and thereby cause violence. Just like music in general inspires people to do all kinds of things; to study harder, to break records, to help others etc. So banning drillrap from big platforms wouldn’t be that bad of an idea at all. Personally, I don’t mind some amount of violence in music, but when a genre/culture focusses solely on stabbing and shooting others, you might want to protect people who are vulnerable (children) by not giving this type of genre/culture a platform Since the introduction of drillrap in my country children of around 12 years old already start to stab each other with big knives
Oh jeez. Did... did the _mayor of New York_ just use the "I didn't even know about this yesterday but now I've seen a little and it offends me" line? Someone get him a Karen haircut and a half-caff soy latte, STAT.
My local library has a section on banned books, so I started reading the books on the list. I am not into rap music but when they ban drill rap, I may be tempted to sample it.

It’s a systemic problem, not the individual-based one you are thinking of.
Great discussion and exploration on drill rap - I had seen a couple videos (one by some tweens, sorry don't know the name), never knew it was a new genre. As always, you are spot on with these "if you don't know" series.
@@2face60 not to be picky, but you said it does influence kids. You never stated if that were a positive or negative influence. I'd go so far to say the adage 'stand for something or you'll fall for anything.' Could be implied here. Is that so far to say that Brooklyn had any less of a 'rough' reputation before the confluence of 'gangsta music' and its arrival, or is it a stereotypical stamp to 'make it bad'?
He doesnt care, the Jewish lable owners own Trevor now. Besides black disfunctionality is a billion dollar business, just trivialize it and say white people are sissies and be done with it
@@redwarf8118 no... we DO get it. Drill Rap is both a symptom AND part of the cause of the cycle continuing. Gangst Rap was heavily pushed to fill prisons... politicians were in on it (Biden, Clinton, Kamala etc... and their excessive jailing policies & war on drugs rhetoric. It's celebrated fathers abandoning kids/family and drugs/hookup culture. Hating white people and perpetuated the racist cop trope that ENCOURAGES resisting arrest and/or running. Democrats actively keep black people angry, scared, and voting (D) by creating the problems through horrendous policy that SOUNDS nice- and then promising the "cure" if only they just keep voting (D) Research these: Ill mind of Hospin 5 (music video) Thomas Sowell Larry Elder Coleman Hughs Doc Rich It's all political theater designed to oppress while pretending to help.
*People with rap music: "devil's music! promotes violence" Same people singing along: "All the other kids with the pumped up kicks You better run, better run faster than my bullet"
I understand everything these brothers are saying but let’s be honest the young mind is an impressionable one.. and we can’t deny the fact that some of these kids are influenced by the music..edit: hardest drill song ever at the end
Agreed rap drill or otherwise is an expression of what is happening in their lives. Mostly agree it’s a symptom and not a root cause BUT BUT BUT! It’s also INSPIRATIONAL for anyone wanting to level up out of those negative environments. And that inspiration in turn creates an environment where living violently becomes ASPIRATIONAL if they are to be seen as “authentically” living what is being rap’d about. And therein lies the problem with violent music like drill rap. It creates its own vicious cycle that is spiraling out of control into the larger community.
Having drill rappers say what they want on a podcast is actually a better idea than having the songs available everywhere...we must agree thats why there is a need for censorship in the first place...
Which is why some famous rappers, like Jay Z are trying to ban using rap lyrics in trials of rappers! Meanwhile, you see dudes snitching in raps about how they scam people out of $ and how you can too on Vice's Black Market.

WHO YOU GONNA BLAME NOW????
I would totally buy Roy's song
I agree with you
Trevor, things were a lot worse 55 years ago but you had Motown and soul. Positive vibes in music. One thing though. Most families stayed together. That makes a big difference.
Yes, people in general are more detached from one another
censorship is never the answer.
Love how we still have people complaining about violence in art instead of the REAL violence happening all around the world
this is the most classic way American tryna cover up the mess in their country
This is always been an issue with street rappers know what they're doing. that rap music is not a healthy outlet for them all it is is a way for them to continue to thrive off of the chaos and menacing and violence that they bring to our communities but have money now to establish more power through the hood it's time for us to take back our streets
While none of this is new, thank you for making such a poignant, understandable, and hilarious breakdown of this issue 🙏🏾 Also, Roy’s spittin’ hot fire 🔥
Trevor. Is handsome. When he comes. His hair and wears a suit.
So glad we have Trevor to put this into perspective! Thanks Bro!!! ❤️
Man that drill verse at the end 😭😂😂. Man i love trevor and the daily show
The music comes from the problems, the problems don’t come from the music
EXACTLY!!!
BRAZILIANS: HOLD MY "FUNK CARIOCA"🤣😂🤣
I BET you guys gonna change your minds after hearing 2 or 3 "songs" of that
Totally 💯
@@Kiyoone I love that music 😂😂. It helped me learn Brazilian Portuguese
Right on
The same thing happened with "gangsta" rap...and the argument is still the same...every action movie is drill rap without rhymes..John Wick,The Transporter etc..to me it's all propaganda until you go after the root.
you know, didn't think of that, but yes, violence is indeed glorified in many art forms. Yeeesh. I mean, why do we have ratings PG, R etc for ?
Profiling Music!
@@ExplosionChimp YES! You, have seen kids emulate " John Wick!" The most likely ones that are being the best" emulation" of it is ...The, Mass Shootings in the... schools!
Remember that, He! Kills, in a rage and many men while searching for the primary purpose and Target!
@@ExplosionChimp exactly! It happens! This rap is just like that! It happened! Actually it happened before that! In 1974 a white kid killed 8 students at his school in Alabama!
I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die...
People create their own reality and the reality is that if you promote violence then your going to get what you are promoting! Bring back consciousness in Hip Hop!

This episode deserves an Emmy.

Great segment! A lot in there, but you're still making it funny and fun to go through this with you. Your style is so dialed in.
If you like this, you'll probably like Amber Ruffin, too. You'll laugh and you'll cry while she tells you the truth. I enjoy Trevor, Roy, and Amber.
You're right
Loved the rhymes Roy. Killed it... we need an extended version.🔥🔥🔥

The way this Man is communicating is ideas and points of vue..... Is Genius :) !
Roy killed it. Let's make conscious drill rap a thing🔥🔥💯
Roy need to drop that heat on Spotify 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
noo not spotify, they'll make 0.0000000000004 of a cent. Might as well put it on this channel for free at that point.
When it comes to violent/ gangster rap none of us are innocent. The labels (if theyre signed) should be held responsible as well because if it wasnt lucrative it wouldnt have gone mainstream.
It wouldn’t be lucrative if we weren’t listening to it and making it lucrative. Everyone wants to point to some conspiracy while they rock out to a song about dead opps 🤷🏾♂️
I think one issue which is less talked about is the fact that kids who grow up in safe neighborhoods and they start listening to the music start wanting to be part of streets because they think it’s cool. But the reality is that the once you grow up in the streets you don’t want to be there forever. You want out eventually and you lose the opportunity. The kids who grow up in middle class neighborhoods will never know what the songs are really about and they think that gangs are cool do to current pop culture.
This comment is underrated and is exactly the way I feel. This is exactly why you can literally go nowhere to escape violence. It's so mainstream! Movies, video games, music, etc. The issue is that not enough of us truly hate violence.
You should listen to sing for the moment by eminem i think he answers your concerns
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
It’s the job of parents to raise their children
When Trevor said "the best dis tracks don't even mention names" my mind immediately went to Taylor Swift and then he actually said her name and I just lost it! This was gold!
great minds think alike
"The best diss tracks don't even mention names"
Well , Jay-Z and Biggie were known for doing that type of stuff ..
What? I can't believe this guy had this job, he's never said anything funny. Comedy is so bad now, no wonder comedy central's best ratings are old sitcoms they bought.

Bro this is the 90’s all over again. This is just the new Gangsta Rap.
My first thought. Drill? OOOOHHHHHH, you mean Gangsta Rap!!! lololol
I just held a 2-hour learning session on root causes of injustice. It went well, but I'm seriously considering just playing this clip and seeing where the discussion goes.
Dang, never heard of drill rap until today. Thanks Trevor, Roy and the Daily Show!
Same😂
Me either! They say you learn something new every day. 😂
I think you probably heard about Chief Keef before. He's one of the og of drill rap
It's 10 years old, it's not a new thing.
Its just another type of Trap really.
I love your take on this Trevor, really topnotch
YOOOOOOOO!!! Roy's track was fire! Roy has BARS! Lol
Music is the expression of what’s going on. Facts!
For a fraction of the artists that may absolutely be true. But there are a lot of artists out there as well who just make up stories, desperately seeking for attention, pity or respect. Simply stating that it’s an expression of what’s going on would be naïve
The *only* people that truly believe that are those weak-minded enough to let the music they hear control their life. Facts!
Str88
Chicken or the egg? Does the rap inspire the murders too?
I think it's the other way around...this music was created to destroy our communities! So what's going on is a reflection of the music! imo
“Anit nobody tryna shoot at me, to many job opportunities” 😮💨😮💨😮💨👑
Roy's rap so fire.🔥🔥too much drip🔥🔥. He could drop an album and win a Grammy.
I would love to see a world without violence.
I agree with Trevor.
You will never stop the youth of this country from expressing themselves
'we are, we are
the youth of a nation'
Like racists 🤣
Dangerously true
THANK YOU TREVOR ✌️🙏
In Kenya all the drill lyrics are about police 😂
Thats because the biggiest and most vicious gang in Kenya are the police.

i using it to chill and book reading cuz it takes anxiety i had out what you guys think to continue using it for study?
its beats of drill not words
Thank you for explaining this issue so clearly. I now understand that those fools at large have mixed up cause and effect, because they are not genuinely interested in solving underlying issues.
That's so true. These same things were said when rap started, when rock 'n roll started, and probably when jazz started back in the 1900's The music is not the cause of the problem, the real problems are what have always been societal problems: poverty, racism, lack of access to decent health care, police brutality, sexism, pollution, and others. These have always been the real societal ills, not the music that people have created to express their feelings about it. And rap has been always been connected with violence, since it was invented by black people who grew up in violent areas of the cities they were from. Not all of them, but some.
That rap at the end really brings it home to middle/upper class white people what the whole point of Trevor's dialog was. All those privileges called out that should be available for everyone. Thanks for this! Terrific work.
It’s a faulty argument to say that because violence existed before drillrap, drillrap can’t be the root cause of violence and therefore we shouldn’t fight it. Pretending as if there can only be one cause for violence. Drill rap can without a doubt motivate people to be violent and thereby cause violence. Just like music in general inspires people to do all kinds of things; to study harder, to break records, to help others etc. So banning drillrap from big platforms wouldn’t be that bad of an idea at all. Personally, I don’t mind some amount of violence in music, but when a genre/culture focusses solely on stabbing and shooting others, you might want to protect people who are vulnerable (children) by not giving this type of genre/culture a platform
Since the introduction of drillrap in my country children of around 12 years old already start to stab each other with big knives
They should treat the underlying condition instead of only the symptoms
@@_love_cats-889 treating the symptoms is also important so the disease doesn’t spread to others.
And once again, I feel it's important to note that old school rap was more about necessity over cloat, now it feels more like cloat over necessity.
I am going to proudly admit that, I WILL be bumpin this jam for at least the next month. Thinking about putting in sub woofers now.
NO QUESTION - attacking the symptom, not the cause!!! You nailed it!!!
😅😅🤣🤣 drill at the end had me rolling
Oh jeez. Did... did the _mayor of New York_ just use the "I didn't even know about this yesterday but now I've seen a little and it offends me" line? Someone get him a Karen haircut and a half-caff soy latte, STAT.
🤣🤣🤣
Not the latte! 😂
Extra hot!
My local library has a section on banned books, so I started reading the books on the list. I am not into rap music but when they ban drill rap, I may be tempted to sample it.
Drill Rap is poison. Why would you sample poison?
Rap video at the end was straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥!!
Hip-Hop has ALWAYS shown ALL sides of life. Violence in rap is not new.
Yep. It started in the 80s and 90s when 2pac was alive
@@MichaelReviews441 it started before that even
Here we go blaming young black men again. How about actual guns and the poverty associated with the words. Wow. Its the words not the guns or the system. Amerikka
But they got money to buy guns,... sounds like priority problems. I was poor,..I always chose food over pistols.
Missed a k lol
@@christopherpierre816 Unfortunately, that’s a talking point from tokenized minority conservatives, especially black conservatives. “I made it out, so anyone can.” Sadly, that’s not how it works, and even though I give you props for escaping being poor, that’s not exactly a reasonable expectation for everyone. It’s a systemic problem, not the individual-based one you are thinking of.

Great discussion and exploration on drill rap - I had seen a couple videos (one by some tweens, sorry don't know the name), never knew it was a new genre. As always, you are spot on with these "if you don't know" series.
bro that tune in the end😣🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯
I grew up in the projects in Brooklyn and I agree that gangsta music does influence kids
Where @? What project?
@@theycallme4799 Brownsville, Brooklyn
@@2face60 not to be picky, but you said it does influence kids. You never stated if that were a positive or negative influence.
I'd go so far to say the adage 'stand for something or you'll fall for anything.' Could be implied here. Is that so far to say that Brooklyn had any less of a 'rough' reputation before the confluence of 'gangsta music' and its arrival, or is it a stereotypical stamp to 'make it bad'?
We need a *Beyond the Scenes* for this subject. Please do one!!! Wow. This was excellent. Thanks Trevor and Roy!

Great work. I think Trevor really shines when discussing nuanced issues

As lighthearted as Mr. Noah tried to paint Drill rap in NY. Chicago’s drill scene is no joke.
He doesnt care, the Jewish lable owners own Trevor now.
Besides black disfunctionality is a billion dollar business, just trivialize it and say white people are sissies and be done with it
It's no joke every where look up what's been going on in Brooklyn, the Bronx, Jacksonville and even London
@@JD-ny3vz of course it isn’t. It shouldn’t be joked about period, and he failed miserably
@@d.michael372 he failed by tellung us that drill rap is the symptom not the cause?
You still don´t get it do you?
@@redwarf8118 no... we DO get it.
Drill Rap is both a symptom AND part of the cause of the cycle continuing.
Gangst Rap was heavily pushed to fill prisons... politicians were in on it (Biden, Clinton, Kamala etc... and their excessive jailing policies & war on drugs rhetoric.
It's celebrated fathers abandoning kids/family and drugs/hookup culture.
Hating white people and perpetuated the racist cop trope that ENCOURAGES resisting arrest and/or running.
Democrats actively keep black people angry, scared, and voting (D) by creating the problems through horrendous policy that SOUNDS nice- and then promising the "cure" if only they just keep voting (D)
Research these:
Ill mind of Hospin 5 (music video)
Thomas Sowell
Larry Elder
Coleman Hughs
Doc Rich
It's all political theater designed to oppress while pretending to help.
Violence, just one pillar of your local law enforcement agency.

One of the most logical, rational, and freethinker out there . Thank you Noah
I feel like he didn't talk too much about it, especially how the UK literally influenced the beats in Brooklyn & the Bronx.
Well to be fair the vid was more so about the social response to the music than the music itself
@@frailvoid5844 The UK had this response to the music 5 yrs ago.
Yo Trevor is a master at comedy.."what u gonna do Finland..give me free healthcare?"..lol..🤣🤣🤣
Roy's freestyle needs to become reality in the streets and on streaming plateforms
Drill podcast got me 😂🤣🤣🤣
I love the solutions brought out in this segment. I wish Trevor could run for president. Roy, why aren't you running for office?

Totally agree.
I understand everything these brothers are saying but let’s be honest the young mind is an impressionable one.. and we can’t deny the fact that some of these kids are influenced by the music..edit: hardest drill song ever at the end
Definitely. You got ignorant manchilds teaching kids how to be men
This music is a disgrace. Also not going to act like I don’t listen to it.
Stop arresting their parents and pay them a living wage. Duh.
It says parental advisory it’s not really the rappers fault
Agreed rap drill or otherwise is an expression of what is happening in their lives. Mostly agree it’s a symptom and not a root cause BUT BUT BUT! It’s also INSPIRATIONAL for anyone wanting to level up out of those negative environments. And that inspiration in turn creates an environment where living violently becomes ASPIRATIONAL if they are to be seen as “authentically” living what is being rap’d about. And therein lies the problem with violent music like drill rap. It creates its own vicious cycle that is spiraling out of control into the larger community.
This whole media frenzy just made Drill Rap even more bigger and more cooler.

Having drill rappers say what they want on a podcast is actually a better idea than having the songs available everywhere...we must agree thats why there is a need for censorship in the first place...
Drill rap is technically self snitching. Listen to most of it and you realize they are telling on themselves.
Which is why some famous rappers, like Jay Z are trying to ban using rap lyrics in trials of rappers! Meanwhile, you see dudes snitching in raps about how they scam people out of $ and how you can too on Vice's Black Market.
😂 actually…4 of 4 I listened to fit this catagory
