I know early in his career he made a point of having clean, positive lyrics..
This article must be racist and disrciminatory. Some judge somewhere will soon agree.
Will Smith kept clean lyrics all through his career, not just the beginning:
“All you rappers yellin bout who you put in a hearse,
Do me a favor, write one verse without a curse.”
Yeah, you'd think the black youth would learn about them during Black History Month or on Martin Luther King Day or on Black Entertainment Television or from the NAACP or from the Black Caucus or while attending college on a scholarship from the United Negro College Fund and living at an all-black fraternity or in an all-black dorm before graduating in an all-black ceremony.
"We need to create a society which does not leave our young people behind as the few become richer," said Chuka Umunna, a trustee of the 409 Project in Lambeth, south London, which helps youths aged 10-17 involved in crime or at risk of offending.This is a fundamental error in thinking.
We do not create "society" directly. We create homes and families. The sum of those homes and families is "society".
Well said.When a "liberal" says "society," tho, he means nothing other than government. Whereas in reality there must be a difference between the two except in a totalitarian country. The difference between "society" and "government" is freedom.
