[@finalkutt7715]

I’m African American a school teacher from New Orleans and have been doing so for the past 5 years. Before that I was a correctional officer and worked in Reentry. I have taught grades Pre K to 12th and had real talks with killers, robbers, and addicts. Mecc and Math are completely out of touch. The last thing these kids think about is how to get on a Trap Ross video. They care about what peers and what older guys in their neighborhood think make then anything. And the next biggest influence is the rappers. Yes, to a level minded adult or a child who grows up around a set of good guidance and principals an artist will not sway your decision making. But for a 11-15 year old who is only surrounded my negativity and the songs he listens to not only GLORIFY the violence but it REFLECTS their actual living situation. They are almost programmed to follow that path. Do some not go down that path? Sure, but even then it’s not without some type of effect that that life has on them. To say that these kids wanna be killers to be on a UK man’s video is utterly hilarious. These kids are dying behind a plethora of reasons but to be on KZbin is not one. Lastly, these kids are in Kill to Survive mode and are in heavy wars and have been influenced but not only peers and others but the BIGGEST fault is a lack of parenting and city funded after school programs. Us as black MEN must do away with our old excuses. Let’s fix the disease not complain about the symptoms

[@powerfulforce9984]

You have some truth in your statement. I can say that. In New Orleans killers, robbers & drug dealers or doing it for the money, women & famous status mainly famous status. So Mecca & Math are right on point if you listen & discern. To think young folks are not watching those videos and don't want that famous status is utterly ridiculous, SIR. That's no matter if it's from the UK or the ocean. I'm mainly speaking about Da N.O just to clarify some of your incorrect statements. Mecca & Math never said the rappers are not responsible, you have listen and discern to know this teacher. You said they're not dying to be on KZbin, however they're killing for the famous status to be talked about on any platform Big faxx Sir. See what we lack is being together and standing up. Mecca was only letting him know you have to be responsible for what your doing. Don't tell me oh he doing it lol. I'm talking about you, Mecca was not trying to compare the UK dude effect to rappers effect. You to listen and discern to overstand the conversation.

@@powerfulforce9984 What Mecca is doing is not holding the actual “gangstas” accountable for their role in tearing up the community and making it a risk just for children to walk to the corner store to get candy, play in parks, or even get to and from school safely. But interrogate the journalists who cover it. We are talking about multi million dollar performers with dangerous, inciting, provoking music. But sure blame the hip hop journalists for covering it. Isn’t a gangster supposed to move in silence? Isn’t he supposed to not leave clues? Why can he make 6 hour documentary about public information? Those are questions that need answering. You message was well thought out and I can appreciate your effort to argue their side. However, when your argument tell me that you really don’t have conversations with the kids who are really out in the streets. These kids kill cuz they are scared to get killed themselves, they kill because they saw their friends get shot and they are FURIOUS and HURT. Saying they kill to be on KZbin for it just invalidates their trauma. FIX THE DISEASE STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SYMPTOMS

For everyone that went and looked up Marlon Craft. That. Was an example of what more hip hop has to offer. I had to use him as a tuning fork to show you wtf this could sound like sonically. There are plenty of examples just like that...that aren't being heard because we're here talking about FN DRILL RAP... Hope that example made sense

Mecca is actually one of the ones that challenges other guests on lyrics/street lifestyle… And for ppl who love hip hop, we also love black culture bc they are 1 in the same.

[@km0011]

"Investigative journalism is a form of journalism in which reporters deeply investigate a single topic of interest, such as serious crimes, racial injustice, political corruption, or corporate wrongdoing. An investigative journalist may spend months or years researching and preparing a report. Practitioners sometimes use the terms "watchdog reporting" or "accountability reporting". " Literally what he's doing. It's done to a lot of famous people. Most famous people who have something to hide do just that, or at least try to (Diddy). The guy he investigated literally gave him all the information he needed because it was public record via music, Twitter and or IG. Why did he give up so much information on himself? I'm assuming clout and status. Crime is attractive and if that's what I'm putting out there I can't get mad if someone else is attracted to it to the point they want to see if it's true. Bottom line; if I don't want anyone to know, I'm not going to talk about it so openly.

[@srush5571]

I actually watch Trap Lore Ross and most of his videos. He doesn’t glamorize the deaths and violence involving these rappers. Instead, he delves into the background of how these gangs and beefs were created in inner cities. At the end of his videos, he always states how distasteful and sad these stories are. He never hypes up the beef or instigates it. Rappers have been glamorizing death and shooting people since the 90s, so it’s not the reporter’s fault when all he’s doing is reporting the drill rap in a responsible manner.

[@SolidSnake240]

Unfortunately people don't get this cuz they don't actually watch his content. They just parrot what people like Mecca say lol.

[@damofyetv1293]

[@fareal207]

How are you reporting on it in a responsible manner when: A)85% of your subject matter don't have a pulse B)100% of your views are negative and from an outside perspective C) Your using Music as aTROJAN HORSE to GLAMORIZE CRIMINALALITY TO SURBURBAN KIDS...which is probably 95% of you trying to make excuses for TLR22 Riddle me that

[@treyturner9296]

I agree, nothing about those documentaries are sexy or glamorous . It's pretty shocking and sad that young men and women are living under the conditions documented in the videos. EIther Mecca hasn't watched the videos or he is just jealous that a youtuber from England can document Chicago gang and drill culture so well.

[@AllThingsPoppingTv35]

@@damofyetv1293u be careful tlr think blqz are dumb. an u are the reason respectfully he fooled ya'll with the bait and switch. look up the definition of lore.... Lore - a body of traditions and knowledge on a subject or held by a particular group, typically passed from person to person by word of mouth. first off if his vids made zero dollars he wouldn't make them and you all know it including him so stop, sons an opportunist. secondly, per definition why report on our particular group and traditions? why not his own ppl or countryman, sht he could report on the mob that still exist and are much worse, that share his r@-ce . he can go mooch offf or go play fake savior /journalist to italians that share his tone, why not tell them that the mob are horrible ppl and encourage kids to stray away from that lifestyle was like he ''claims to do for us with his vids? which is cap. Lastly, TRAP- wtf trap has he ever been to or put in work at, something he knows nothing about... why has he chose our culture when theirs hella ish culturally going on in the uk, dude cap acting like their isnt ish popping criminally or on their music scene. AGAIN, ''LORE'' a body of traditions and knowledge on a subject or [held by a particular group] hes not part of ''our group'' so even his name is a cap, bs and a misnomer... dude has a fetish for blk atrocities and using hip - hop as a scapegoat, also the money! dude a culture v*lt*re.
