Styles P is better if you listen to all his word play and a subject matter of the past. In the '90s magazines and radio had huge influence on telling people what to think and regurgitate. They made up a lot of stuff that people ran with. kind of like how people compare big and Tupac as rappers when everybody knows BIG was by far a way better lyricist and Tupac was never in the conversation about best rapper until he passed away. People need to start thinking for themselves and stop listening to these gatekeepers and running with their ideas. Truly sit down and listen for yourself and then judge.

@@tracphonevirtualmagazine If you are going to challenge me, atleast proove me wrong. Just cause you talk about street shit don't mean it's real. But if you are trying to keep it real about what goes on in the streets, then you can talk about gang activity/violence, or anything thats contextual to the truth you are trying to express.
Well P is a real nigga cause he don't just write off the new rappers just cause they new and rap about the streets. Alot of so called hip hop heads be acting like karens.
The reality is “nobody” is built for it. Some just get away with for a variety of reasons but it takes a toll on all. The greatest toll is payed by the community.
I wouldn't say nobody, but very very few, & they not built for anything else. Some real damaged psychopathic individuals out there that can't even be around ppl. Real demons. But ur point is well taken. Most ppl playin the game are not prepared to end up in a cell or dark alley w/ an apex predator like that. It's an unnatural state of humanity, 99% are not born this way. Real monsters are made, only through deprivation, abuse, poverty, lack of love/hope. These kids think they hard cuz they can pull a trigger, till they locked in a cage w/ one of these bona-fide animals, w/ no pistol or gang to save them.

The bigger issue is why does the black community glorify being from the streets so much? Our community is so broken that the things we should disassociate ourselves with are the things we praise and gravitate towards.
@Slimthickmodelsthe streets ain't sunshine and rainbows because of the crash dummies. The problem is the black community makes theur own street dangerous. We create a struggle to glory it. If white people take over these same neighborhoods crime rate goes down and the community starts beautify and thrive.
Styles P is the greatest of all time. Ive been listening to hip hop since the 80s. Not a single rapper has put out this many projects and maintained the level of quality like the ghost. He always has genuine content and gets better each time. he is not a gimmick, hes like the everyday blue collar hard working dude. hes a great person in real life aswell which takes it to another level. Styles P THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME.
What styles anit telling you is 90% of rappers in the 90's didnt do shit either. Long ago i just took the music as it is. A creative expression sorta like a movie. Now if a dude was on interviews and talk shows saying " im a real gangster in the streets" then i can see that being detrimental.
Everybody didn't have to be a gangster or a killer back then .......but the actual gangster rappers were connected to real gangsters 50 cent, fat Joe, Jay z n were real hustlers n they weren't preaching murder n kill kill nobody wanted to b a crip when we listened to snoop this new shit has no substance just murder n kill black people
You misinterpret. The gangsta rap threats were real, but we (Gen X) understood that only a fool WANTS a war. Gangsta rap was meant to be a deterrent to bloodshed. Drill music doesn't seem to hold any such sentiment.
“Never too young to die or too old to live ain’t it hard to bust ya gun go home and hold ya kid, I’m ashamed I sell crack but I’m a ride for the moment know the consequence I’m a die with the omen” Salute 🫡 to Styles P ya favorite rappers favorite rapper!!!
When I was growing up you had to come outside for a reputation. Kids now create a image behind the safety of internet that they really not built for or barely been around. AND The internet made it safe to be disrespectful without consequences. When I see drill kids playing crazy on the internet, I just shake my head. Its cool to Be Yourself, they trying way too hard. I always tell people, “You try hard, you die hard”.
The core of the issue is rap culture needs to stop expecting gangster rappers to also be supergoons. Imagine how much better off hip hop would be rn if Tupac didn't try to live what he rapped. It's ok to tell stories that aren't 100% accurate to your life. Speaking from the perspective of people you know, things you've seen, or the dark part of your psyche and the things you could do if circumstances were different is all considered valid in every art form aside from hip hop. Expecting a rapper to have a body for every murder bar he raps is like expecting Tom Holland to swing around New York City on webs.
Well said. I don’t blame the audience so much though. I blame the rap labels who are pushing the most violent artists rather than the best artists. Obviously the artists have to take accountability too. Even after they become millionaires, most of them refuse to stop the tough guy act. Even worst they keep making music promoting violence when they aren’t even living that lifestyle anymore.
Drill music takes no skill and that's a rebellion from the skill older rappers needed to be successful. A lot of these kids aint gon be alive in 5 years anyway.
i think the difference between Gangsta rap and Drill music is 90's Gangsta rap moreso told what the person will do to another person if you piss 'em off. Drill music is moreso telling in detail what you did to a person while providing the name (s) too and laying out exact details in the story of when, where, and how you did you. That's actually more so snitching on yourself. Outside of saying people were getting killed around my way or the fact that I will be willing to kill you...noo one ever snitched on themselves in gangsta rap.
Gangsta rap was reporting the local happenings. Not too far off from some of the grittier NY style of rap or trap music in the south. Drill is straight up war music. No lyricism, no thought process, no creativity. At least in gangsta rap you get the picture painted of what life is like in a place. Drill is telling me the details of a murder either planned or already committed. Not something wise or cool.
Styles P has been my favorite rapper since my early teens .. I met him in person a couple years ago and he has the same energy in person ! Real stand up guy .. Salute to Ghost/Holiday/Pinero/G-Host !!
The First Positive Message I heard today. I'm learning that must of are Legendary music figures ant shit on headline news every where I'm sincerely Glad and happy to see 1 out of a million blogs and interviews of bull shit that Styles Penero Will tell the truth about what's real and fake and what's wak out there. Thank you OG and the people that brought that interview. Killing and Abusing other people and representing your self to be something your not is unfathomable and tasteless. Wak as hell. I can't even listen to music the way I use to without doing knowledge behind the artist. Who say being your self don't sale? If you can't sale records being your self you was not ment to sale records. People is getting exposed . From Puffy to everybody music ect. Smh
But he always balanced it out with more conscious and mindful lyrics too. Drill is all negativity, no insight or deeper thinking and ONLY focuses on the negative.
@@ThatGuy-sc5rxWell put. His verse on 24hrs to Live while Lox were still Bad Boy actually grew on Mr over the years to being tied for best verse on the song. While X, Rob and Jada had the impressive flow, the stuff Styles was saying was way deeper than what everyone else on the song said and much later in life it registers more than every other verse. Styles wasn't just violence and drugs, he had alot of insight as an emcee.
Drill isn't the new name for Gangsta rap, that never changed, Drill is crash dummy rap, it's a subgenre of other sub genres. One with hardly any acclaim, classics. Just drop a hard ass D Block or Jada Styles duet album. Trust me it will make bigger waves 😄😄😄
Funny thing is drill music spawns from gangsta rap. We were warned long ago about the effects of gangsta rap, but no one listened. Ninjas were too busy getting money... and we're here. It's US people, not THEM. This is what WE allow
@Mize2dx yea ok... lol. We keep blaming THEM, when all they're after is a dollar. WE set the trend, not the music industry. They only pour money into what we like with hopes of making a profit, thats business. Niggas love violence, we gravitate to gang shit, it's part of the culture. The music industry just exploits the bullshit we like.
@@burningspear90 Facts.....Its almost like the people who signed Dre knew the IMPACT it would have on our " Hip-Hop Culture " and youth. They saw direction RAP was going with the East Coast Native tongue movements and had to counter act....Look at us now fam.
I'll always view drill as some time/place shit. The vibe of hopelessness and lack of regard for life mixed with that type of beat will always be Chicago to me. Back From the Dead is a soundtrack to places like GP, WP, and Englewood. Think of all the shit you've heard about Chi and its 10x more bleak than that. It has its place to document shit, but the fact that many of the originals of the scene have moved on or passed is telling. Much love to Styles btw, I'm a old head who's been rockin We Are the Streets in the gym for 2 decades. The LOX are coast to coast.
@@EHN2024 😅 u just said what I was scared to say... It's crazy to see the contrast from that, to the older, more balanced version of styles we see today
Drill is way more direct with the disses and threats. And generally way less subliminal. Maybe you could consider Drill a sub-genre of Gangsta Rap? But it isn't the same thing.
the convo they had about the kids faking it to rap made me think of that clip floating around of the kid who got caught saying he was "smoking on rah" in a song and he was not ready for the energy.
Before you think of keepin' me down, heatin' me down The flow like water get deep and you drown With no soul, many niggas roll with no gold Even a small gun got a little black hole Your destiny is somethin' you can never figure out Niggas is never happy 'til there's blood up in your mouth There's a lot of killers, but who the hell are you to blame? There's a lot of dead, how the hell you take the pain? Live with it, got money you better give with it My man had the thug in him did his bid with it Get married to the game but never have a kid with it Advice from the wise, slice the pies Too many schemes divides, when dreams collide Teams provide, war for the street to absorb Stashed in the ceiling and you slept on the floor Only a blind thug will fall in love with a whore
listening to De La growing up I got the clear feeling these 90s dudes many or most, didnt wanna stay in that life obviouslty. they spoke what it was, the truth, their truths. But they sounded like they were warning like a big brother saying ay dont go selling if you dont have to, it aint cool, its hard. breaks souls.
Styles is one of my favs bc he is from my area, i saw him out in public numeeous times, he would let me introduce girls that i was cnilln w as a flex, he bought stupid magazines from me w hen i had a crappy job - styles is a legend to me.
This is why hio hop no longer exists. 😂. If a styles p cant control what music is being let in the airwaves then its over 😂. If jay z cant control this shit 😂😂😂

Used to have dames that got brains at the Hilton
Even had the Range and the chain that he chilled in
Now he just survive off the beast that was built-in

I know people might disagree.But Styles is equal to Kiss lyrically. Its just Kiss voice is more distinctive. But all 3 of them are iLL.
he is but Jada's content is more appealing

@@burningspear90 Facts.....Its almost like the people who signed Dre knew the IMPACT it would have on our " Hip-Hop Culture " and youth. They saw direction RAP was going with the East Coast Native tongue movements and had to counter act....Look at us now fam.
I'll always view drill as some time/place shit. The vibe of hopelessness and lack of regard for life mixed with that type of beat will always be Chicago to me. Back From the Dead is a soundtrack to places like GP, WP, and Englewood. Think of all the shit you've heard about Chi and its 10x more bleak than that. It has its place to document shit, but the fact that many of the originals of the scene have moved on or passed is telling.
Much love to Styles btw, I'm a old head who's been rockin We Are the Streets in the gym for 2 decades. The LOX are coast to coast.
"Shoot em in the head" is still the craziest song I ever heard till this day 😬😅
That song is darker than drill music itself
@@EHN2024 😅 u just said what I was scared to say...
It's crazy to see the contrast from that, to the older, more balanced version of styles we see today
@@Gouzinstrumentals yup
your sound guy needs to sort out the audio
Drill is trash
Where is the whole interview. ❤ 💰 ⛽️
respect to a real OG
The youth don’t respect the ogs Ogs don’t be hating they just be dropping jewels and music is always gonna evolve within the times
THANK YOU STYLES….THANK YOU
Kicking straight facts. I can not lie. I phucks with some drill but it is so destructive to us as a people. Wish the energy could change.
Audio needs to be better……. I like you guys……. I want y’all to succeed……. Respect from the Stuy🇬🇩✊🏽
Word 🇬🇩.
Check out lefty hooks.

Drill is way more direct with the disses and threats. And generally way less subliminal. Maybe you could consider Drill a sub-genre of Gangsta Rap? But it isn't the same thing.
WTF I DON’t want the lox on no drill beats
the convo they had about the kids faking it to rap made me think of that clip floating around of the kid who got caught saying he was "smoking on rah" in a song and he was not ready for the energy.
I hate that BS too! Damm , wtf is wrong with gettin money an having fun🤔😕 Drill is ass backwards!😔
When did that stuff become invented
They cant say isht when they did a song called boost the crime rate
Before you think of keepin' me down, heatin' me down
The flow like water get deep and you drown
With no soul, many niggas roll with no gold
Even a small gun got a little black hole
Your destiny is somethin' you can never figure out
Niggas is never happy 'til there's blood up in your mouth
There's a lot of killers, but who the hell are you to blame?
There's a lot of dead, how the hell you take the pain?
Live with it, got money you better give with it
My man had the thug in him did his bid with it
Get married to the game but never have a kid with it
Advice from the wise, slice the pies
Too many schemes divides, when dreams collide
Teams provide, war for the street to absorb
Stashed in the ceiling and you slept on the floor
Only a blind thug will fall in love with a whore
Song?

listening to De La growing up I got the clear feeling these 90s dudes many or most, didnt wanna stay in that life obviouslty. they spoke what it was, the truth, their truths. But they sounded like they were warning like a big brother saying ay dont go selling if you dont have to, it aint cool, its hard. breaks souls.
Damn. That was powerful
Styles is one of my favs bc he is from my area, i saw him out in public numeeous times, he would let me introduce girls that i was cnilln w as a flex, he bought stupid magazines from me w hen i had a crappy job - styles is a legend to me.
To hell with Drill
"I'm gonna either be the target or make the difference" DAMN
Why do these hosts act different when an established artist is in the room? They act real tough in front of unsigned artists 😂
wtf are u talking about.. there acting the same
They cowards
???
Tru Talk💯
Hip hop culture is so far behind in education and consciousness, it’s truly disgusting to even hear such a low level talk from grown men. It’s crazy
Did you look at the whole or even watch it.Styles P is speaking the truth.
@@robertmoon9756 no this person didn't because it's most likely a bot. Styles P was giving some life advice in this video
Let’s be honest tho Styles P is apart of the problem his discography gave birth to drill. Rap is a destructive genre.
@@THEWOLF-wt3lx he is not the problem nor did his discography give birth to drill music. You sound like a bot also.
@@THEWOLF-wt3lx🧢
Drill music is not gangster rap, it's killing rap there's no other situations they talk about
Styles P is now in my top three because I hate drill music to
Fax. Hope more rally behind him. Shyt gets me hot fr!
7:58 that’s a dump question when you live in America 🇺🇸
This is why hio hop no longer exists. 😂. If a styles p cant control what music is being let in the airwaves then its over 😂. If jay z cant control this shit 😂😂😂
Old gangster rappers told stories about their past. Drill music glorifies building a career being a gangster then brag about it in music.
street credibility no longer matters. look at the rainbow rat & gunna.
LMAO
