You ever wonder why every major rapper sounds like a broken record about death, drugs, and fake flexing?
Because that's what's cool, right?
Nah, fella, it's conditioning. It's engineered destruction.
Here we go, conspiracy alert!
Fact alert, you dirty mutt. In 1991, a private meeting happened. Executives from record labels, investors in private prisons, and silent government liaisons. One goal: make chaos profitable.
Wait, what?
They realized the more you glorify crime, drugs, self-destruction through music, the more broken kids you create, and broken kids fill up the private prison system. More prisoners, more dollars.
That's just business, not brainwashing.
Is it? Then why did conscious rap, the stuff that empowered people, get blacklisted? Why did gangsta rap suddenly explode in the 90s with full corporate sponsorship?
Maybe it just sold better?
It sold better because they fed it non-stop. Every radio station, every award show, every top chart designed to sell a vision of life that's short, violent, and hopeless.
But some artists are independent, right?
Very few. And most of them get buried by the algorithm. You won't hear the ones telling the truth, because truth doesn't sell chains or fill [jail] cells.
So what about all the self-made rappers flexing?
Flexing debt, flexing leased cars, flexing record deals that own their masters and their future. They sell Rebellion but only Rebellion that leads to profit for the same system they claim to hate.
That's depressing.
It's beyond depressing, Mutt. It's deliberate. Rap was weaponized to destroy a generation from inside. You think it's art? It's artillery? You think it's success? It's sabotage dressed in chains.
Then what can we even trust anymore?
Trust the ones they silence. Trust the ones who lose deals. [Or, trust no one.]
Then why does it only affect black kids though?
