    Delores Tucker is owed an apology from the Black Community!! She was 100% right and maybe just maybe if she had more support we could have changed our conditions. This music is disgusting. Mother Delores I apologize for the pushback you received.

      Ms. Delores Tucker I humbly apologize. As young melanated woman at time in my early twenties I was the one she was trying to protect as well as our community as a whole. She was truly an unappreciated visionary. Through grace being a woman in my mid fifties I now honor and appreciate her efforts. I couldn't see it then but I definitely see it now. I knew it was bad but didn't know exactly how bad until a saw a very popular female rapper's video. Instantly, I thought about Ms. Tucker.

I grew up in Atlanta and Chicago during the 90's and I wss heavily influenced by Pac and all the culture and now at age 34 upon reflection she was right. They made her an enemy but when Pac first started out he wasn't calling women bitches or rapping about none of the gangster shit until he played the role of Bishop in Juice and Birdie then that Thuglife album came out then his whole persona changed. How do u disrespect a woman who stood for the same things ur own mama stood for. Her stance wasn't even against Pac it was these white owned, Jewish owned multimedia conglomerates who markeu a product that destroyed a lot of lives. I come from the hood and gangsta rap really wasn't needed. Hip Hop was better before.

      cory carpenter I can totally tell I'm not talking to a mature adult nor am I talking to someone from the culture. You sound like a culture vulture or some very young person that didn't grow up in the 90's when all of this sh*t was going on. You do know 2pac died at age 25. He wasn't even a mature adult yet. He was a very young man that would've changed his views MANY times by now with him having being age 44 if he were alive. Even Jay-Z said when he listens to some of his earlier hardcore material he cringes because of the content. Alot has changed from him because he has a daughter so I'm sure maybe he wished he didn't make songs like Money, Cash, Hoes but he was young and less mature. Further you can't tell me NOTHING about that era. I grew up in Chicago and Atlanta during the 90's in the heart of both cities which and you don't get more GANGSTER than Chicago or more BLACKER than Atlanta fool. I have all the records from that era and she didn't specifically target 2pac. Her mission was against TIME WARNER FOOL! 2pac and Deathrow were just caught in the mix. Even 2pac was nothing but a slave to Interscope records and died without having his publishing or royalties. So it's bigger than rap! But you wouldn't understand judging by your remarks so peace out!

      I kind of felt the same way at the time because rap was Kurtis Blow and when the drugs came into the community it became Public Enemy and most lyrical rappers pointed out the fact that it was outside influence from the government that was tearing their Community down and the powers-that-be was not going to have that and I remember we did a photoshoot for mr. Cheech and at the last moment these little white interns came along and handed all the little seven-year-old boys fake guns. Mrs. Tucker comes from a time where black communities didn't have outside influences Richmond you had a great job poor man you rent at your house and you grew your own food if the neighborhood got out of hand black folks took care of it themselves I was naive in thinking that the conscious rap with get airplay so I felt she was going a little too hard but actually all of us for the first time was getting bombarded with government genocide by Design

    28 years later & popular black music is all about killing each other, getting high, promiscuous sex, & materialistic items. R&B has devolved into the same. Our marriage rates are continuing to plummet, our education rates are reverting back to the lows of the 80s-90s. We have 90s babies & 00s babies glorifying gangs & murder. Our poverty is not even close to what is was then. My older siblings used to pick & sell pecans back in the 90s just for snacks. Now, kids, have $500-1000 phones, $200-300 shoes, & $100 shirts n jeans. Yet, they are glorifying a life that came out of crushing poverty. The music has become a terrible influence. So many of these new rappers are getting killed before they even make it four years into the industry. And, the cycle continues. We have teens that feel like the only way they can become successful in life is to rap, strip, or scam. I don't know what can be done to change things. Social media grabs a hold of these kids at younger & younger ages every year.

      Tupac was my favorite artist in the 90s-00s, but he sold a way of life (like most rappers) that he didn't live.... One that leads to the prison or getting shot.
      Look at your icon, it's a picture of 2pac pointing a gun..... So cool. Before the music industry sold "gangsta rap" to the black community, black leaders were like MLK, Thurgood Marshall, Frederick Douglas....
      Now most young black men have a failed mix-tape, sag their pants, and talk about going to jail. What does it mean to 'be black"? The music industry re-defined that.

He had a child-like mindset in his 20s and most young adults like to be mischievous and do not appreciate admonishment from elders. So, I’m sure Ms Tucker, at the time, didn’t take a 20 year old personally and had no ill feelings towards him.

      On the contrary my man. If Tupac stayed home Sept 13 1996 and kept going with life im sure he and Mrs Tucker would have made amends WAY before the year 2000. Tupac was a hot headed loud mouth with a heart of gold. His mother was a black panther. His father as well; in addition to being a political prisoner. He was a knowledgable man who can review a situation, find his wrong doings. Admit to them & seek to do better. So im certain he would have found a way to sit down with the sister and discuss like humans should.

    All that protesting against gangsta rappers ended up giving them more publicity which helped their sales. Many people bought their music out of curiosity because of the controversy. People protesting against gangsta rappers should have done it in a general way without mentioning the names of specific artists. Doing that only helped their sales.

      Ms tucker is wrong back than and she's even wrong now in her grave.. why not go after conditions that created "gangsta" rap wouldn't exist if poverty the war on drugs and mass incarceration didnt occur in the black community. We have freedom of speech in this country atleast the rappers during the 90s gave back to the community while ms tucker did else

I truly did not understand what the Queen was trying to do and say. I look at the condition of our families, communities and children today and I see directly the damage it has done..smh yet we still defend this garbage we label as entertainment. its sad.

    In order to legally ban gangsta rap, you would have to define what it is. That's easier said than done.
