Reaping what you sow is racist.

A mostly peaceful “Concert”?

Were the stabbers acting in concert?

With so many rappers being murdered you would think they would get the hint that people DO NOT like RAP music!

Give me Cab Calloway, or Dinah Washington any day!

Is stabbing rappers now legal in CA?—hard to keep track of the latest “progressive” moves these days.

I hear post-modern musical theory says that rap is the result of white hegemony over the music industry....

;-)

“Some people did something”

No mention of suspects or motives...

Personal motives? Professional Motives?

Are 50 cent or Snoop Dog under suspicion?

Sounds like a higher death toll from Hop Hop/Rap/whatever “concerts” than from Omicron.
I know which one would best be avoided by those with sentience.
