You know I have been listening to music since I was a child. I also have been listening to hip hop since I was in middle school. Now that I am older,

and a Rapper myself , I often wonder has hip hop did more damage to the community than good, or has hip hop know as generation x grew up and became responsible men and women as a result of the culture ?
As I look out on the greatest civilization known to man, I see a lot of folks who are growing very ignorant by their actions. Is it a result of the community they live in, or could it be the music they are listening too ? Poverty has its placed, but extreme poverty kills the mind and soul of a people. So, I guess we could say the same thing about the rap music, but ignorant rap wit no message can do just as much harm, and kill the mind and the spirit of a people without them even knowing it.
I will touch on this topic in greater detail in the future, but for now I just wanted to leave you wit something to think about ….

The Jackson family has been showing their ass every since Michael died. The family has been fighting over Michael’s money since his death. Janet has been in a constant battle with Michael’s daughter. Tito, Randy and Germaine have been arguing over issues that have pulled the family apart

as well. Why in the hell is the Jackson family acting like animals of Michael Jackson’s Estate ? I guess its true what they say “Money is the root of a family’s evil so we are now getting to see how money can divide a family that was once seen to be so close.
It has later came out through other sources that Mike was the coldest business man of the bunch owning real estate in Japan, and music catalogs of some of the most prominent artist in the world from the Beatles, to Elvis, to Eminem and many others. The Jackson family has been fighting over his estate since his death. The question is how do you or should you protect your assets from your silly ass family members so they don’t squander your money ?

Many people have asked why Marco ! Marco Macmillan was a man on the rise in Mississippi politics. He was running for mayor of Clarksdale Mississippi. Mr. Macmillan was found burned and mutilated just a few short days ago. Many are trying to figure out why this openly gay candidate for mayor would be murdered the way he was. A lot of people believe it was not random, and that he was murdered by folks that may of new him. Police are still trying to put piece together what could of caused the murder.
I know many of you are looking at this post and thinking I’m making a reference to the rappers 2 chains. I am not referring to the rapper, but what I am referring to is the need for a rapper to think he is not cool if he doesn’t have the right jewelry on. Many of today’s younger MC‘s can’t rap, but

seem to want to flash all there lil trinkets as a way of saying “I got some street cred.” I think more MC’s should concentrate on there skills versus how many chains they got or cars they own. Jewelry don’t make the man but lyrics and skills does.

How often do you hear a rapper whose faked it until he made it to really get paid ? Let’s take Rick Ross for example, he according to most sources is not the guy he claims to be. Is it in the best interest of most rappers to lie and create a fake lifestyle of struggle to earn their riches. Some rappers boast about shooting folks, or having a prison record. Does this give him or her a creditable existence among his fans ?
yes i love what 50 said these rappers are just as broke as me and you they dont have all that money and these young kids are going out and selling drugs just to be like these fake ass rappers sad. [Reply] …. that was refreshing. he touched a lot of basis on that and i respect him for that. we all fake it till we make it…but aint a album/distribution deal “making it”? cut the fucking lies. i dont even believe in rap. like i said before, rap concerts are like KISS concerts. makeup, …
Is it okay to fake it till you make if you’re representin’ the hood. What about after you make it, is it still cool to fake it then? How many … Then again, do rappers have to ever have integrity? Plated jewelry, rented whips, staged models, and the lists goes on and on. …they live a lie. I guess some people feel better faking it till they make it. That’s cool with me all they way across the board but why are these the same rappers that hate other rappers for doing the same thing.

Prior to the 90′s many black folks hadn’t seen an image of a black man and a black women living under the same roof and raising children as a family nucleus on TV. In walks Bill Cosby, who decides to push the envelop and create a positive show that portrayed the black family in a way that didn’t show the ignorance that most black folks was use to seeing in the media. Since the emergence of Obama Black People have not really seen the life style of the Huxtables in quite some time. What ever happen to the images of black family staying together, or even trying to work it out there problems so they could stay together ? Do you remember Good Times, and The Jefferson’s those shows portrayed the black family as a unit. I often wonder will the Huxtable life ever come back to Black America in real life and on TV.

Many of the folks in the street are still talking about the Illuminated ones who rule and control thangs in Hip Hop. We have all heard the stories about your favorite rapper doing strange thangs for some change. My question is can this be a distraction to the betterment of your hussel if you still are worrying about what Jayz and Beyonce is doing. I think once you recognize that Hip Hop has been comprised you can get back to planning what you need to make your mark in the hip hop community.
I feel like it is important for you not to get caught out there tripping off what another dude or chick is doing. In order to find success in the Music Industry you got to stay focused on your mission of marketing, promoting, and selling your music.

Many in the Hip Hop Community was rocked, when we found out that Violator Managements CEO Chris Lightly was found dead from an apparent suicide. Chris management company for some of the biggest artist in the game from LL Cool J, 50 cent, Diddy, and Busta Rhymes and many more. Chris seemed to be a very low key behind the scenes dude who just made sure the business was right. He along with others helped manage 50 cent to a 100 million dollar pay day.
Chris killing himself was a real shock to the hip hop community. Now, the question is asked did he kill himself , or did someone else kill Chris, and what would be the reasoning behind the death of one of the music communities raising executives. I’m sure you can remember last year Shakir Stewart, or Shake as he was known to most committed suicide at his home for no apparent reason or so we think. Shakir was a raising executive in the Def Jam family, and would of had no reason to kill himself he had the money, power, family, and fame . The question is why would Chris want to kill himself when he had the whole world in front of him ? We may never know the answers, but speculations remains about why he died.
The conspiracy theories go around like this inside the music industry, you have to pledge your life to the elite powers that control the industry in order to be allowed to reap the financial rewards that you see many having today. Many folks have reported that you have to commit certain acts like ” homosexuality, or a blood sacrifice of someone special. So, did Chris and Shakir pledge their allegiance to the powers that be, and when they were asked to perform certain duties or task they refused. In which case, some of the powers that be planned to expose some of the unethical things that these young men had to do to gain fame, but once again this is all speculation.
The conspiracy theories will always hold some truth and some false, but what we do know is we have lost another great young man.
