noisey Bompton 犯罪都市コンプトン・ヒップホップ・シーンの現在 ①

【コンプトン・ヒップホップ TOPICS】
jp.vice.com/top...
**********
カリフォルニア州南部に位置する街コンプトン（Compton）。アメリカで最も危険な都市の1つとして知られ、2006年の調査では、セントルイス、デトロイト、フリントに次ぐ全米ワースト4位、さらに人口10万人未満の都市では、ワースト1位の犯罪都市と発表された。なかでもギャングの抗争による殺人事件で悪名高く、ロサンゼルスで結成されたブラッズ（Bloods）とクリップス（Crips）のアフリカ系アメリカ人による「2大ストリートギャング」を中心に、殺人、強盗、麻薬取引などの凶悪犯罪が日常的に発生している。1980年代には、悪名高きギャングスタ・ラップ・グループ、N.W.A.が登場。昨年公開されたグループの自伝映画『ストレイト・アウタ・コンプトン』は、ミュージシャンの自伝映画としては史上最大の興行収入を記録したのも記憶に新しい。一時に比べると犯罪は減少しているが、未だロサンゼルスのガイドブックでは、「絶対に行ってはいけない場所」として、注意喚起されている。
クリップスの「C」を認めないブラッズの面々は、なんでも頭文字を「B」に替え、「コンプトン(Compton）」を「ボンプトン（Bompton）」と呼ぶ。そんな現在の「ボンプトン」ヒップホップ・シーンを牽引しているのが、ケンドリック・ラマー（Kendrick Lamar）。2012年にメジャーデビューを果たし、アルバム『To Pimp A Butterfly』（2015）と『untitled unmastered』（2016）は全米1位を獲得。更に2016年第58回グラミー賞では、最多11部門にノミネートされ、最優秀ラップアルバムなどの5部門を受賞するほどのビッグスターへと成長した。しかもコンプトン出身でありながら、犯罪や刑務所の類いにはいっさい関わらず、真摯に音楽に取り組むその姿勢は、悪名高いこの街のキッズたちに新たな可能性を示している。
もちろんケンドリック・ラマーによって収まりはしない。コンプトン・シーンは未だに混沌としており、実際、ケンドリック・ラマーの友人たちも不慮の死を遂げている。一体「ボンプトン」とはどんな街なのか。どこに向かっているのか。ケンドリック・ラマーを中心に、現在の「ボンプトン」を探る。
第一回は、ケンドリック・ラマーとそのクルー、そして彼の幼馴染であり、元ギャングのリル・エル（Lil L）が登場。

[@nickolasecker9596]

“Started from the bottom” always triggered me. Drake was living the exact life that most teens in the middle and lower class dreamed of. “Nuhh I had to borrow my uncles Acura and he wouldn’t let me keep it out late”. Meanwhile a man from an area riddled with gang violence, where most people will had personally known victims of gun violence, still maintains a more positive message. Generally, except for when it comes to dismantling the biggest crybaby in music.

[@kaelthunderhoof5619]

Even we have no gangs here but most of us lived in poverty. I finished my school and can go descent in life but Drake's "bottom" looks like a dream life for me lol.

[@Chev427BB]

yeah, if anyone started from the bottom it was Kendrick. He got out of there against all odds, and this video is just a snapshot of the conditions he had to grow up in. Aubrey has no respect for what people actually go through at the bottom, he's blinded by his own ego and only sees what's around him. There are so many people who would love to see what Aubrey had at his lowest.

[@balmain-i3e]

Bruh this is silly. It's all about perspective. You can be born in the hills and still have obstacles and hurdles because of your perspective. Drake may have not been born in Compton but his perspective from where he was as a child to a single-mom and as an actor scouting for work to where he is now; he sees it as coming from the bottom to the top. It's ALL PERSPECTIVE. We outchea playing oppression Olympics and wearing our poor/humble backgrounds as a badge of honour when in truth no one cares. No one asked our parents to have sex and make babies while living in a shit hole. I was born in the hood too, just letting yall know. This isn't coming from a privileged perspective

[@KrownRoyal]

I’m not Drake fan but he makes songs like that because hella people really did come from the bottom. So the song performs well because people listen to it as an anthem.

[@nickolasecker9596]

@@KrownRoyal I mean someone that really did come from the bottom could have relayed that message though. It’s just insulting to people that really did struggle imo since Drake came from an upper middle class upbringing in Canada and was a teen tv star.

Yes but this is different.

Who’s here cause they rocked with Kendrick before the beef 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@donnyouttheway4091]

I was listenin to Dot and Drake back when they both first was comin up. Thats highschool time for me. I like Drake and could relate to some personal shit he said but I related to Dot way more cause he went through way more than just heart breaks and not being accepted. He went through that, gangs, dysfunction, family curses, being torn between good and bad , being at a crossroads etc etc. people act like Dot says overly intelligent shit but he really tells hood stories in a way similar to pac but with the more lyrical style of biggie or wayne.

[@PnwMalpal]

@@donnyouttheway4091 couldn’t have said it better both are great artist from completely different background and styles. It’s honestly sad to me more than anything is a lyrical artist like Kendrick will probably forever now be known as a gimmicky beef song, which is catchy, but he’s so much more than that.

[@TheresaHunter-zi3ic]

@@PnwMalpalYOU CANT COMPETE WHERE YOU DONT COMPARE! KDOT WRITES HIS LYRICS AUBREY IS AN ACTOR, ACTING LIKE A RAPPER HUGE DIFFERENCE THATS LIKE COMPARING APPLES TO ORANGES. I WOULD NEVER!

What I love most about Kdot is his story, his influence, and his humbleness. Like he has almost 100 mil and lives in a normal Cali Suburban house and doesn’t weigh his neck down with chains and doesn’t wear expensive cloths. He’s literally wearing slides joggers and a white tee.

my thing is y’all are judging these gang members and not realizing that some people did not choose this but was raised into this. children can be raised into gang violence, gang mentality, poverty. a “gang” could be one’s normal, “the hood” can be all someone knows. for some it’s a choice for some they born into it you can’t call Kendrick a hypocrite he reps where he’s from he can preach positivity around these thugs and gang members because that’s what they need personally in THERE life. it don’t matter if they working or not so it’s weird to see y’all calling him a hypocrite and talking shit about his friends. it don’t matter what life they lead and how they leaving they deserve better and great things and please refer to these men as people and not “gangsters” they may look like em but these are young men. human beings.
