    Social media is just busted as a whole. I could go from watching a reel on IG of a guy dropping a grenade in a room filled with people to a women shaking ass. Even on meme pages, every video has a mf in the comments say “I POST GORE CONTENT” and other shit like that and it’s really is just insane how things like this is just “normal” in modern day

    Newer rap fans don’t treat rappers like they’re human beings with issues, they’re treated like a form of entertainment, even death has become apart of the entertainment, it’s spectacle, and that’s not normal, there’s no reason why ppl should have access to king vons autopsy photos, why is there countless videos of these ppls deaths caught LIVE on camera, I don’t want to see a dead body lying in the middle of the street, that’s disturbing imagery and ppl treat it like it’s normal, why’re ppl using rappers corpses as profile photos, THATS SICK, and it doesn’t help when some of these rappers engage in that behavior to posture how “tough” they are, why is there a video of this guy crying over his friend dying and his opps are mocking him??? when did it become normal to disrespect dead ppl and mock ppl mourning, its all sick behavior

    I was just talking to someone today explaining why I can't listen to Chicago drill. I know there's a lot of rappers that talk street shit or live that life but it's way different hearing actual names of dead people being used in songs.
    As I white man who grew up in the suburbs and has been listening to hip hop for 15 years and loves it to the core; I have to deal with the fact that I am part of an industry based around the consumption of black trauma.

    When you separate from the crowd of non-thinkers and really take a moment to think about these rappers deaths, its depressing and dystopian. When Pop smoke died, there were people laughing about it in my school. For me, it was a dark moment because I got into his music heavily those 2-3 months before. I feel like some fans act like the rap game is a mall and go about as they please. I think of it as a museum where youre supposed to respect whats being presented. I just cant fathom that people are waiting for rappers to die as a gotcha moment, its sickening.

    Good video, man! So many topics in this could be a different conversation to different points and problems we have today in rap and even society. I got into hip-hop around the 50 cent, lil wayne era. when i was in like middle school. Then, when i was in high school, someone showed me chicago drill. It was almost like a different new fresh genre to me at the time. I started listening to multiple drill artists no matter what side they were on because I thought the music was entertaining and hype. Then, dj akademiks war in chiraq channel was recommended to me on my feed, and i didn't know it was as real as it was. But i did know at the time, what he was doing was toxic and didn't support it, but at the same time, i wanted to hear all the stories going on and i couldn't avoid the content out of curiosity. You summed up everything good in this video. I believe social media has desensitized and changed how people think and view things that are really serious, and it's sad.

    IMO TRL is one of the only sources on hip hop that takes time to do full on research. And to say death in music is what gravitates people to his content then what we’re people doing when MJ died? They are whole books, think pieces and deep dives into Michael Jackson’s death. Hell, you just said the biggie and Tupac thing not realizing that both artists never met that success while living. They had to die to get the recognition they deserved

    I'm drom SoCal and seasoned enough to have lived through Easy, Trouble, T-ROY, Selena, Pac and Big, all the way to now. And I'm still tapped in. You're correct that now is more visual due to social media and phones. It's also true that my generation unfortunately facilitated this generation's violent tendencies. Many of which are because we made struggle and subsequent violence a trend. I hope, beneath the surface of recent history and current conjecture, your generation can identify how to heal what we didn't.

    Trap Lore Ross was doing documentaries on rap related topics that were getting several hundred thousand and millions of views prior to him even delving in to King Von and the whole Chicago drill scene. To act as if the sole reason he exists is because he started doing content on them just isn’t true

    Idk this is a bit of a stretch. We see more bodies because every has a smartphone and is filming. Did the officers record Kobe’s dead body because of the war in chiraq? This is a commentary about instant gratification which has more to do with smart phones then anything in the music industry.
