I have waited tables in Missouri (which is pretty racist) so I want to explain the vicious cycle of racism at restaurants. A black couple comes in. Nobody wants to take their table (because racism/”black people don’t tip”). Someone takes the table, is a shitty server, doesn’t check on them, is barely polite, gets a…

Or—and bear with me on this because it’s a radical concept—she experiences a high level of racism as a Black woman with a bit of change in her pocket and instead of just dealing with it as most of us do on a regular basis, has decided to call it out more often.

I don’t see anything wrong with this situation except the killing statement which is ridiculous and not announcing that he was a police officer.

 “If he wasn’t an officer, just a regular man would they do the same thing? No, he’d be locked up.”

You compared Migos to Rakim. Just wanted to point that out. Surreal.

Joe is very blunt on how he feels about the direction rap is going. It rarely consists of anything seemingly artistic and instead just seems simple and generic at best now. I back him 100% These new mumble rappers are garbage. Their lyrical content and context is nonexistent. All it really is anymore is a catchy…

Oh Lord have mercy, white people jumped on the trap wagon and it has been so so shitty ever since. I also love Snoop Dog’s impression of mumble rap, great stuff.

Migos are the Nickleblack of rap. They have lots of fans, but people who don’t like them keep away like the plague.

WHAT?? Flow is easy, when you legit don’t have any lyrics to flow between!!! It’s like he is scatting his raps... which... is the complete opposite point of rapping, where lyrics have always reigned supreme. Since you do not create your own beat, how in the hell you gonna say his flow is why he the best?? HIS FLOW IS…

you are crazy bro... rap is all beat, flow, n lyrics. what do these new rappers have that you wanna defend? no lyrics, so-so flow (which is sad considering they don’t even have real lyrics), and THEY DONT MAKE THE BEATS THEMSELVES. So what is happening is these amazing producers are making these beats that used to go…

I’m not conflating pop rap with hip-hop. They’ve been two different things since at least the early 90s. Do you honestly believe that ‘Skateboard P’ belongs in the same category as ‘If I Ruled the World’?

So more than 40 Trump supporters then reportedly showed up at the Starbucks, in Dilworth, N.C., to order coffee and talk to the manager and baristas.

Ice Cube said it best when he was on Real Time a few weeks ago: Rap had a political edge to it. It was talking about doing great things in the community and about the government. At a certain point, mainstream media decided lets not promote them. What they are saying is incendiary. Lets deal with escapism rap:…

FUCKING EXACTLY.

Watching that YouTube clip, it finally occurred to me why I’ve rocked with Joey for all these years.

Since it’s birth, hip-hop has had attempts to kill it from within. It survived the Superbowl Shuffle, it will survive this.
For a good laugh google “worst rap songs ever”

“It’s not that Joe is salty, it’s that he can see the degradation of the quality in hip-hop over years, and feels groups like Migos and rappers like Lil Yachty contribute to the dumbing-down of the art form he loves.

So I had it in my head that there was a rumor that Bruno Mars was a Quincy Jones byblow. But apparently the rumor was that Michael Jackson is his father, but that’s been debunked.

Thomas Jefferson had a Black girlfriend too.. Liking Black pussy doesn’t stop you from hating Black people

Newsflash: if interracial dating was the antidote to pervasive white racism towards blacks, the NFL would be a civil rights organiazation. If you’re dating a black woman, and have remained blind to or have refused to acknowledge white racism then you’re either delusional or willfully ignorant.
