Ok, so you jumped the gun. You made it seem like people in here were solely blaming hip-hop for the problems in society. It's common knowledge the media has been biased and against hip-hop and black people as a whole. Everyone in this thread is a fan of the genre, the more interesting question a blinkin posed is will hip-hop ever stop mostly glorifying violence and drugs. I think it's possible, people like Nipsey and Kendrick became profilic artists with an overall positive message despite being a part of gang culture. You can already see subject matter changing to ownership and business ventures outside of drug dealing etc over the past two decades. If you look at the most popular artists of this decade vs the 2000s, it's a much different landscape.Don’t know if you’ve lived under a rock but the media and journalists have criticized and blamed hip hop for violence since the late 1980s. I’m not even talking about Niketalk members at this point. If you feel some kind of way or I’m “going somewhere else” well, indeed. My job was done
