Too busy shooting each other, beatin up honkeys and whining about reparations.
A love song for the mongrels of today: "You a ho.You a ho.You a ho.You a ho.You a ho."
Black popular music of all kinds when I was growing up was artful, often brilliant and full of poetry.
I can’t stand to listen to much of what they call ‘music’ today.
Sad when the likes of Marvin Gaye and Nat King Cole used to record such beautiful love songs.
I don’t know about this premise, some of the stanzas of “Tina Gotta Big Ol’ Butt” are deeply romantic.
No less a crooner than Frank Sinatra called the George Harrison song “ Something in the way She Moves” the greatest love song ever composed.
I find it is getting better. 10 years ago it was worse. Now rappers are having to try and hide or downplay their objectification and misogyny.
After all, how does that help dems get elected? If everyone is happy and enjoys nice music that appeals to everyone, there wouldn't be nonstop media "stories" that help keep making the divisions in our society deeper and wider, thereby keeping the media audiences low and hurting their advertising income.
we love our bitches and ho’s, we love pimping our sister out, we love slinging dope, we love bustin caps in people asses, we love rapin,robbin,and killin,....
What is he talking About?? Lots of Love in Black Music.
The black soul music of the 60s celebrated love and romance. Rap and hip hop represent misogyny, criminality, willful ignorance, and decadence.
I miss old school r and b like the Spinners. It was much happier sounding then and the songs were kind of wholesome.
What’s love got to do, got to do with it? What’s love, but a second-hand emotion?
A little off topic but then maybe not...
On You Tube there is a genre of sites referred to as REACTION VIDEOS. The host (usually black) will watch (usually for the first time) music from another era. Mostly music they may never heard before or did did not know existed.
Music from the 1950s and 1960s are the main focus. It is fun to watch the reaction blacks as they listen to Elvis for the first time, or the Righteous Brother (most are surprised that the Righteous Brother were white).
Music from the 50s and 60s usually had a story of some sort. Some serious and some just for fun.
It may be a stretch but I would say there are many young blacks that are also getting tired of rap music.

Feel free to google these great songs about hoes.
This is the BLM songs for unity between men and Hoes.
The Hip Hop/ Rap influence has killed most all “pop” music.
Why work to create a melody, tell a story, create harmonies and actual music played by musicians.
Now you just rip off samples, create drum “tracks”, talk a bunch of sh@t about the lowest common denominator in your life, and cuss alot.
Simple.
You won’t even get the original music for “I’m In The Mood For Love” in what most kareoke devices comes up with that doesn’t even come close.
Has there ever been a rap love song or are they all about killing cops and rival gangbangers?
