[@CuriousNun]

In what aspect specifically? Cause even though very insightful and introspective, what he said was apparent and obvious. So what made you say that?

[@wideopenwounds]

@@CuriousNun how does it being apparent and obvious to you change the fact that a statement aged well. The obviousness of something has nothing to do with how it ages.

@@CuriousNun yeah except the comparison is disingenuous at best, not all things are equally apparent. Comparing a scientific fact that the sun will rise tomorrow that all humans know, vs his comments aging well because of a beef that you didn’t see coming this year at all, nobody did, is apples and oranges.

[@yomrap6931]

@@ihateflatbunz He said everyone should do what they're called to do & it was bigger than 1 person but even Jay has said things about social conditions in his music. For instance DJ Khaled lost my respect for not saying a word & he's Palestinian. (Doesn't have to be in the music, say something in an interview)

@@yomrap6931 Exactly. Also, apart from Mel or parks, who seem to educate themselves on topics other than america or the "culture", i feel like what Mos speaks to will go way over there heads.

I agree but Pac was still young minded in other aspects. He likely wouldn't have passed at that early age if he learned to subdue his passions

[@TMan10103]

@@craighunterii8742he was stalked by the government his whole life, got put in prison for a false rape charge, he was harassed by white people on his own property, people looking through his windows, he got beat up by the police for jaywalking, he got shot 5 times and the whole world made fun of him and tried to make him out like a criminal. How do you think you would react? I would say 2Pac handled that well at 20-25. Through all that he stayed humble and still made conscious music. He had fun on certain songs, yet he still made more conscious music than not. So based on that I don’t think he was young minded. There are people in their 50’s right now who are immature.

Drake is pushed to be King of this genre because he upholds consumerism in its highest form. Hip Hop is a culture built on being the voice of the voiceless and rap, being the soundtrack of hiphop gave messaging... Drake messaging is safe to any and all establishment...his raps arent political, nor ideological, and when they are personal, its only pertaining to his view of his love life, family and friends. Even the King of "Pop", Michael Jackson gave us edgy political songs. All of the other important artist in music's history have giving us a time stamped opinion of society. Drake literally moves like Switzerland. He is probably the safest rapper ever to hold such dominace, you can put Drake music on and not think.
