Hip-Hop Needs Change
By DJ RIKaSHaY
We are influencing a generation of innocent children and young men, to hustle, to smoke, to gang bang, and to sell cocaine. And much more sinful things. Are we gonna sit back and watch our people die! We use racial slurs and curse without cease. You say to me that cursing is a sign of struggle, pain, and trials. Well what if I told you a struggle was nothing more than a test. A test of self-control and composure. Hip-Hop has failed this test. Not just hip-hop music itself. I don’t what to hear about thuggin and being a so called “real n----“ or “real-m-f-r”. Because that is what Hip-Hop has become. You either talk about sex, drugs, or pimpin, or your considered worthless to the game. Do we ever even think about this? Heck, your probably reading this right now saying “whats this fool talkin bout, he don’t know nothing! He just some sorry butt hater who has no idea what hes talking about” But on the contrary I do! Do you think that bling, girls, cars, and clothes will last forever! We all will die someday. So are you gonna sell your life to these things, or are you gonna try to do something! Make a difference! You say I am! But your not because you can only make a difference if someone wants to listen, when use use vulgar words and talk about useless things. Nobody will listen. Stand UP! Give respect to yourself! Music influences LIFE’S! Weather you care or not. So listen to me on this day, do you want to die by getting shot for owing drug money or a similar situation. Or do you want to leave this planet saying I accomplished something. The choice is yours. Think on this. And make the right decision. Thank you for your time. Have a nice day.
