I agree with the verdict. I've been arguing the same topics. Great deliberation.

[@combat_casual]

Top tier content.

[@antoinesmith4805]

Ron Taylor is scary funny, that opening monologue was on a different level. I’m looking forward to his next comedy special.

[@devonemontgomeryhunt1770]

Bro Ront T might be up there with the greats one day. I hope so

[@larsp8665]

When Ron T asked which song made you want to get a job my reply woulda been "well Biggie did inform me that UPS hiring so I just applied there" 😂😂

[@hazelwilson-shaw7593]

I know right this is my first time ever watching never heard of it FUNNY AF (off subject) I think that Louis Belt is my nephew I've never seen I'M NOT EVEN JOKING we're from Oakland well originally from Louisiana and he favors my Lil Bruh if only I cud talk to him... SO GLAD 😊 💝 I SAW THIS SHOW 💕

I swore I was gonna hear that at some point.

[@Blaisebullion]

[@losthedon22]

Ron T was the only one who actually stayed on topic. He wasn’t talking about Rap as a genre but the things it promotes. And I fully agree with him. This may be the best episode yet.

[@NicoleTeehees]

Yes! He was on point and brought everyone back to the real points. The rap CULTURE is toxic. You are right, this may be the best episode yet! I'm so looking forward to more!

[@lynchsc420]

Hard to refute decades of data. There would be nothing wrong with the culture of artist admitted it was just art.

[@quintidwell99]

And still made you laugh at the same time 😂

[@michaelbolton-iw2cu]

As a rapper I never say I do this or that but bragged about what my people will do, as older I do look at what I believe in and what I WAS saying and it don't match. I agree with Ron. It's toxic.

[@thecoolpanda.]

This was a good one. Ron T came on strong, I fux with him. DoBoy did make a valid point about how the communities do need to be fixed rather than solely blaming rap culture for the problems we see. Patrick laughing in the background was funny as hell.

[@DEFIANTDIGITAL]

[@jamesdlegacy8728]

Ron T's did come in strong and then got tripped up by poor exhibit model selection. You can't go find some Stripper type Only Fan ass women

no. BET and VH1 need to stay the fuk away from this. this can survive on its own. let them get they hand in on this and it will ruin everything you love about it. let these brotha build this and own it on their own and maybe one day the creators can Pick up BET and VH1 instead of the other way around.

Shout out to Tobe, Rhapsody, Coast Constra, Joey Badass, Earth Gang, Chance, Vic Mensa, Saba, and more for keeping the balance of rap. All of the gangsta stuff is respected but it's too glorified. We all want better so lets do better and walk in that light.

[@silentsmashbros4902]

The judge's face be getting me, every time 🤣

[@cyranojohnson8771]

You can't deny Ron T's flair. That man is funny AF. And this whole episode was super-enjoyable, I'm loving this whole concept. That said: Team Do Boy over here. To get real for a second... ... uh, I guess I'll do a "spoilers" thing, here? I don't know if that's necessary, but I'll do it. SPOILER: I mean, Do Boy's argument was right, though. You can try amputating this or that part of "rap culture" all you want, if the *environment* is toxic it won't change anything. If you've got heavy economic pressure on communities in a country that's flooded with guns, gangs and gun violence will follow no matter how "clean" the music is supposed to be. The escalation in deaths among rappers since 2018 is a parallel to a massive surge in firearms deaths in America generally. Americans are more than 40% likelier to die by firearms now than they were in 2010. "Rap culture" didn't create that surge, *American* culture did. That shit is the outcome of laws and lobbying and big-picture Politics. Rap is just swimming in the same soup as everyone else, with a lot of its creators coming from the worst-affected communities. If you want to find out how putting all the burden for changing that on the music and its message works out, well, hip-hop's elder cousin reggae has struggled with similar questions as long as it's existed. The poster boy for making that music deeper, more meaningful, and more authentically religious (if one was trying to project a Rasta image) was Peter Tosh. He literally walked that talk for his whole career. And what was his reward for all that positive messaging? He got shot to death in '87. Because despite his impact on the music, the environment was the environment. It's always super-selective what gets to be counted as a part of "rap culture" when people are in this kind of mode. Apparently any rap or anything associated with it that doesn't fit the argument of the moment just doesn't get to count as "rap culture." We have a whole culture of Black entrepreneurs connected to "rap culture," and I'm not just talking about the handful of rap billionaires. We have multiple generations of emcees and producers who have actually lived out the full arc of a "gangster rap" career and can be heard on all sorts of podcasts and interview shows talking frankly about the peaks and valleys and the mistakes they made and the kind of values they have as mature adults, often as family men. There are whole libraries of thoughtful and interesting rap music to which we have easier access than ever. We have artists like Tyler the Creator and Kendrick LaMar outselling the drill rappers -- who are mostly the ones everyone is in a moral twist about these days -- ten to one. Legendary "oldheads" like Nas are still putting out best-selling records -- in his case some of the most "conscious" music of his career. We have so many more alternatives, "rap culture" is such a richer landscape, than the days when gangster rap really WAS dominant back in the late Nineties. But somehow, we get in this kind of mode and suddenly none of that counts as "rap culture." The negative is always presumed to outweigh it. Here, of course, that's for comedy reasons, it just makes a better bit. Thing is, it's also the kind of shit people do when they're being "serious," though, for purely emotional reasons that have nothing to do with facts. (And we always get some bullshit mixed in with all the moralizing, like the bit with Exhibit A and 1 was truly funny as hell but also... maybe we can just pump the brakes on telling Black women how to act and dress.) Do Boy hit the nail on the head, it's fuckery.

[@kairilyn]

Agreed, Rap CULTURE (not the genre) is a big problem and has become a big stain on our OVERALL culture over the years. Where rap songs are fun to listen to there's no denying that the message in them became less "telling my story" and more "hyping my crimes for brownie points and clout" and that's what's led to so many promising rappers in recent years getting killed over dumb shit. The culture needs to change. This episode would have been REALLY interesting if Ryan had been playing on either side tbh, whole convo would have been turned on its head 👀😂

[@ATLKing404]

But their being killed by people frome the streets

[@ATLKing404]

They would have died whether they rapped or not. Most of the ones killed were also gang members

You can't change the fruit till you change the tree. And the tree can't change b until the root changes

[@Swish_God]

@@ATLKing404 stop just stop. You we come up with bad analogies to give credit to bad points. READ what i said again, with focus. Changing hip hop is the START to changing the community. Look up what Propaganda is & how it's used. Look up the definition if influence & them manipulation. Percocet promethazine codeine lean would at best stayed relegated to its local area. Along with the idea that I can make money rapping by doing illegal sht drillin & sliding, or completely lying abt it for the image.

[@Swish_God]

@@ATLKing404 & my guy that changing the root stuff you're talking abt?? Everyone laughs just FYI. You can plant 🪴 those roots anywhere but if the problem is in THE SOIL It's pointless. The money is funding the image that's teaching each generation here in the age of information. Remember it's more cell phones than parents in the world. Think on that.

[@Dark-Shinobi]

I feel like we need to address who's promoting and marketing these artist to us directly. Who owns these labels, radio stations and Networks etc. It's too easy to just blame the rapper and not blame the machine behind him that's empowered his voice. These artist are only as big/influential as their handlers want them to be, look what happens when they go off-script they are quickly forgotten and muted all of this chaos and corruption has been planned.
