That video you posted is a good video as well. Lupe's comments went over a lot of people's heads. Word to plants.

He's trying to hard IMO, These guys are like this because they want to be, Just because someone looks at these guys or listens to them doesn't mean you have to act like them. But yes, it ruins it everyone, So most people that look at African-Americans like these they'll think all of them are like that.

I don't agree with that either

, Just agree with Bun B. There was a video of Bun B by himself but I couldn't find it so I just posted that one.

I don't think the point of the video is to speak about how people do and repeat things they have seen/heard. He is more so focused on the degradation of black masculinity. I think you might want to watch a little more (if you want) because you kind of came to that conclusion pretty quickly.

When I finish watching this prepare for a good debate.
