"most people haven't experienced that" But the music is almost inseparably a product created by people that have. I would just like the average hip hop fan to appreciate that. So much of hip hop is about struggle and hardship, even in other countries.



But yeah, Gimme the Loot gives itself to hip hop voyeurism for sure. I do love a song where someone can just be a near-cartoon and talk about all the evil shit they've done and haven't done every now and then.

I mean there definitely is the thing that the record labels pushed gangster rap to perpetuate this negative image of black people but it doesn’t change what people had/have to go through on a daily basis.

And yeah certainly plenty of people listen to rap to relate to especially the more street it is, im not saying no suburban kids listen to moneybagg yo, but compare how many do to how many suburban kids listen to lil uzi vert.

if you look at the population demographics of the places where rap is the most popular it's not shocking that most people listening to it don't actually directly relate to it

I wouldn't say I hate slipknot as much as I hate the assumption that I should love them because I share a state with them

"Youre looking at rap more broadly than i am colton"



because we were discussing it in a broad sense, hence why I said most people can't relate

Where did you "literally" say that? I just resent hearing the word "fantasy" next to hip hop. Idk some rappers definitely glorify or hyperbolize that whole lifestyle and a lot of people that don't get it on that level enjoy it like Star Wars, a costume you can play in and discard, instead of really looking into the culture and loving it and respecting it.



Like good ole' boys in my hometown would drive around in their lifted trucks, listening to Waka Flocka and Gucci Mane, and somehow be whole racists still.
