[@bblaam27]

I never thought in a million years that we would come to a time where you have to apologize for speaking against drugs and drug use

[@kardowalker]

This the thing. Drugs are always gonna be here whether legal or illegal. If rappers don't promote it in their music, people are still gonna use them since it's around them in their neighborhoods. I get where this guy is coming from but to tackle that issue, it's up to the parents to educate kids about not doing it. I been around coke, heroin, and crack before from the people I was around and I never tried any of it because I didn't want to be a druggie. If more kids felt like that then we'd have less drug problems.

[@Hamzethegoat]

But rapping about hem only makes them worse I promise if Music shunned Drugs people would stop taking them

[@jamarjeffery1480]

Hamze Ahmed Yeah for weak people that lack originality and self control. I get tired of people always blaming someone or something for the choices they make. If people really listened to what rappers say, a lot of them rappers would be non existing .. Anyone who was raised by great parents who taught them right, knows that their responsible for their own choices. Why would do something because other rappers or people do it? Your choices hurt you and the people around you, not any celebrity. That's what morally weak minded people do.

Cause the music industry wants you to be influenced by the "gangster" rappers so you turn around and do what they sing about, get locked up and make them more money. The biggest music companies have close ties to private prison systems. Prisons that were designed specifically to be filled by people who listen to rap. Hence why the industry gets paid from the prisons. Shit's way deeper than most of y'all think. What do I know though, y'all just go get a few more face tats and sip that lean, see where you end up.

Russ is the reason why I'm thinking the way I do.. So I can understand why they want to hate him. After I read the books he suggested - I tapped into my mind and remembered who I was again. Russ believed in himself before anyone ever did. If he's got people hating now, you can only imagine how it must have been when he first started. This is why I continue to strive everyday with my own Music. You just have to get started and keep moving forward. Eventually all those little steps begin to add up and the results will speak for themselves! Confidence mixed with ambition - Everything will fall in place.

Russ I want to apologize. Even though he won’t see this I take back my hatred for you. Your personality always came off as very cocky and arrogant but after listening to you preach my perspective has changed. You are just being you even if that means being harsh you are honest and you really care about making the world a better place which should be the most important thing for everyone. Still not a huge fan of the music(He doesn’t care what I think of his music) but a fan of the realness of the person you are.

Facts

[@DieForDethklok11]

nah, its the holier than thou bullshit attitude. i agree with most of the ideas he presents, but its the way he presents them that makes him unlikable. like charlamagne yelling 'people who take drugs /are/ losers. we didnt glorify junkies.' no you glorified the drug /dealers/ that pushed that poison onto these kids, that destroy lives and families for a dollar. sure, dont glorify addiction, but dont pretend that generation didnt glorify their own bullshit. also, there is a difference between artists now glorifying drug abuse vs. accurately portraying drug abuse and the extreme lows that come with the extreme highs.

[@SometicHD]

@DieForDethklok11 See this is what you're not seeing. Just because a previous generation glorified their own bullshit doesn't mean that they were any less wrong than this generation. Russ is trying to make a point that regardless of the generation, we need to stop glorifying bullshit period. And to your second point, there is no "accurately portraying drug abuse" to some 13 year old kid who doesn't even know what a cigarette is. When they associate being cool with drugs, that's sufficient in their head, most of them aren't even bright enough to distinguish between what constitutes an extreme high and what constitutes an extreme low.

[@SometicHD]

Also lots of people confuse that first point. You are your own biggest supporter, if you want to become great you have to first think that you're great (i.e. Lebron, Ronaldo, Kobe, Kanye etc.). You HAVE to hype yourself up, you HAVE to feel yourself. Too many people confuse his confidence for arrogance. A lot of people who hate on his self-confidence are usually insecure and don't have that level of confidence in themselves, so when they see someone feeling themselves, they lowkey feel some type of way.
