Motley Crue, Poison, Aerosmith, etc. have destroyed hotel rooms. Orgies with underage girls. Tons of cocaine, heroin, and alcohol abuse. Yet, they're celebrated and revered by fans and even in music media.
But Snoop Dogg smokes a joint and he's a thug glorifying violence.
That’s not what makes Calvin Broadus into a thug who glorifies violence.
“But Snoop Dogg smokes a joint and he’s a thug glorifying violence.”
It has nothing to do with weed.
He is a thug glorifying violence.
He is/was a Crip, and stood trial for murder.
Nonsense on both counts.
No one I’ve known has ever “celebrated” that kind of behavior. Generalize much?
But everyone I know despises the rap/hiphop “culture” of violence toward women and police.
Care to debate the point? Give me 10 seconds to gather up a few of Calvin Broadus’ clever little rhymes...
“Motley Crue, Poison, Aerosmith, etc. have destroyed hotel rooms”
A fraternity brother of mine was a bellhop in late 70’s at the Hyatt in Cleveland where all the rock bands stayed.
He delivered food etc to most of the rock groups over a couple of summers and said he rarely saw partying, sex or girls. Most of the groups were dead tired and when he went in most were on the telephone to wives or gf or sleeping or watching tv.
It was never like you would see characterized in magazines or see on TV or hearsay.
He did see some wild stuff at times but it was rare.
That’s not even remotely comparable it’s not just stoned Snoop Dogg
Hip hop people.... they aren’t artists either as a rule
They do far far far more than your run of the mill poontang chasing hotel room destroying cocaine sniffing Petrus swilling decadent rock star ever has
Hip hop life is about rape and killings and crack dealing frequently and gang life and nobody calls them out in celebrity world because they are minorities as a rule
Hell many hip hop labels were born of murder and crack dealing gang thuggery and what passes as black organized crime ...although organized is a generous term when used here
There is zero moral relativism between hip hop malevolence and old rock decadence
And worse it ain’t music except on rare occasion
Hip hop and it’s progression have ruined popular music into engineered warbling that all sounds the same sung by some ethnically ambiguous boy or a girl with a fat ass
I wish we had those decadent rock folks back...please
Nobody will listen to hip hop for fifty years like they do some rock songs and some country as well...
Hip hop as it’s progressed is an example of a culture so dysfunctional it glorifies it’s lowest common denominator as Art
Do you guys know that of the known hip hop artists community that has died over half were murdered
