      That is true, but it's also difficult when rappers have some of the greatest influence on todays youth. There's a certain amount of responsibility that you don't ask for, but are expected to acknowledge as a celebrity. Not saying that it's up to rappers to raise our youth or to necessarily be activists, because everyone has a right to live in accordance with what they deem to be important, whether superficial or otherwise... but if you have the ability to positively influence people through the culture of Hip-Hop/Rap, then why not contribute? After all, Hip Hop is an outlet of expression, empowerment, and a huge part of our culture.

    The fact that he’s been through so many difficulties in his childhood but still managed to work hard and succeed makes him a role model. You don’t have to talk about politics to be one.

  • @tyo789
    @tyo789 8 років тому +1890

    I completely understand what he is saying. He is saying that he doesn't have all the answers but at the same time he will continue to be a positive influence through his actions. Black lives do matter but not every black person is going jump on the blacklivesmatter movement. He is going to further the black cause in his own way. Stop crucifying people for not jumping on the bandwagon.

      +dark side you guys are saying the same thing with different tones. He has no obligation to speak on current events. It's not his job to do so like an activist, news reporter, tv host, etc. He didn't sign up for any of that; he signed up to make cash off telling his own story/lifestyle, and if he wants to continue to do that instead of following a trend, why judge him? Yeah he fucked up at times with all lives matter and shit, but his reasoning at the core isn't evil; it's human. Other artists going out of their way to advocate for causes doesn't make those who keep to themselves selfish because that's not what they're famous for, is what I'm trying to say

      Answers and leadership requires a certain amount of intelligence and morality. These celebrities have a platform which allows them to reach millions of people and hopefully the celebrity will say something to help whatever agenda is requiring attention. Unfortunately we live in a selfish me me me me world and these celebrities can't make people into human beings. This young man has no idea of his human influence,he's just into being him. Since he's into him why not let him be him.

      J. Cole does rap about political issues. And Nas raps about politics too. But you are right. Rappers should give political issues too. But some do talk about a message of racism. But they all should. Tupac talked politics and BIGGIE SMALLS sometimes did too. Coolio has political raps and issues in his lyrics. "Gangster's Paradise".

      It's because traditionally rappers provided commentary about things happening in their communities. Nowadays these new artists don't care about anything except money... and it's crazy how some of these rappers are quick to point out black on black crime when asked about black lives matter especially when they make and promote music degrading black women and glorifying violence and black on black crime... cats are straight up hypocrites.

    • @gmensah2008
      @gmensah2008 8 років тому +5

      Rocky doesn't understand Rocky. Nothing he said made sense, he's all over the place rambling, trying to apologize without losing face, trying to explain himself without looking like he has something to explain.
      He gets slack because his mentality cuts him off from the the black community. He gets slack because he's out of touch with the black community, and on topics like police brutality and black violences, dude actually talked about "black on black crime" which is the most ignorant thing to say.
      For him to use that expression shows how out of touch he is, black on black crime is a term created by the media to make it seems like black people are inherently more violent. Black on black crime rates are the same as white on white crimes, crimes is usually committed within one's neighborhood.
      So for him to use that terms, that shows how out of touch he is, and also Europe tends to be about assimilation, not integration, so there is no "black voice" over there. He got caught up with the kumbaya and the being cool in the fashion world. But now he's gotta come back to the black community with his tail behind his leg trying to say sorry without actually saying sorry.
      He's a great artist, but he's a shit head.

    • @jake.Delphi
      @jake.Delphi 7 років тому +1

      Because all the people who don't understand it clearly aren't intelligent enough to, it's not a hard concept to grip, he has fans of all colors, he's worked beside people of all colors. He doesn't care what color your skin is, come together as one to make this country great again.

    • @gmensah2008
      @gmensah2008 7 років тому +1

      Yeah I don't think that's a hard concept at all, not sure why you feel the need to put down those who don't agree with you. That he doesn't want to see colors is one thing, and if that was the case, he wouldn't have made comments that include "black on black crimes."
      To believe in the media nonsense that is "black on black crime" is too see color. It is to think that black people are inherently more violent. It is too think that some people of some color are inherently different, more prone to violence. Which is a lie, there is no difference between "black on black crimes" and any "color on color crime." Crime is usually committed within one's neighborhood, you don't drive 100 miles and then commit crime over there.
      No one has a problem with the kumbaya of multiculturalism, but he's made many comments at many occasions that speak to his complete disregard and disrespect for the black community. The black community didn't ask him to root for black lives matter, didn't ask him to fight against police brutality, or to be some kind of leader.
      He went out there and shitted on the black community. His words

He, himself, personally hasn't experienced or knows enough about BLM or why it concerns him, and he simply told that to a woman who asked him what he was doing for the movement.

When I got here I honestly felt the separation, energy, tensions just like he said and it fucked up. First day I went to high school in America I was shocked because I rarely saw blacks and whites hanging out as friends everyone was mixed with their race just like in prison and I was gob-smacked real talk. In London that shot didn’t matter I had friends of all sorts of backgrounds race is like it doesn’t even exists in London and I’m blessed to say that but America is fully fucked up.

      The white system is going to bury him like it did OJ, Cosby, Michael, etc. He thinks that once white people start calling Tupac "the most beautiful man ever" that means they've accepted him...He'll learn. Just like Tiger Woods learned that the media and the white system will destroy a black man whenever it gets a chance...even if you distance yourself from blackness and call yourself "Cablinasian-Tiger" or "Im-not-black-OJ-Simpson" or "Get off my lawn, young niggas-Cosby"....whites will still destroy the Uncle Toms.

      Exactly there were two back to back black lives matter marches in London post Alton Sterling and Philando, him bragging about doing a talk at Oxford University was just so wack, they let anyone speak there.

    Is it just me or did his "explanation" just sound like a bunch of inarticulate gibberish that evaded the subject which inevitably devalued the perception that their is an necessity for him to speak up about socio-political issues ?

      He sounded this way yes, but if you were listening he did express the man continually expressed how he was sleepy and clearly wasn't in the clearest mind state. He didn't articulate it well but I still got the message: We can't talk about unity unless we are on the same page, on one accord. Until then we must learn what's best for ourselves. That's where he is right now.

    He's sweet. And he's young and somewhat idealistic. I get his message on unity but the answer to the problem is not the sweeping, surface message of unity. It's a lot more layered than that.
