Puff Daddy Sean Combs beating his then girlfriend Cassie Ventura

Yes. Epstein gained power and influence directly through blackmail. It’s how he became a billionaire—other billionaires handed him the keys to their finances after he acquired kompromat on them via his sex trafficking operation.
Lex Wexner and the generous donation of his Manhattan town home comes to mind.

dont really care what anyone says , all this motherf%&$ from the hip hop world are all the same.

low life scumbags and should rot in jail

im still amazed on how people see music in hip hop....its just trash
I genuinely don't know how someone can post some shit this stupid....

There's a lot of degenerate, nasty ass bastards across the whole industry. You really just gonna toss a whole ass genre in the trash over some generalization bullshit based purely off the worst examples of the medium?

Go listen to Digable Planets, De La Soul, or Arrested Development and tell me how you come to the conclusion that they're "scum bags" and should "rot in jail" just for making a music you don't identify with.

Jesus man, get that hatred out of you bro, it's gonna eat you alive.

Hate's a disease that eats away the inside first. It's honestly sad. People who spew that kind of vitriol often don't realize their disease is killing their happiness. I used to be like that, so filled with hatred. I still struggle with it a bit, but I try to catch it when I find myself being a crabby old bastard, and I'm far happier for it.

Im not filled with hatred lol , i just dont think hip hop or rap or whatever is called is music. The so called artists im sorry dont have any talent whatsoever. It doesnt take talent to speak faster or write about im from the hood and im being misstreated or that ive all this money and look at my bling bling and have so many chicks and drugs.

Im sorry that is not real music.
 

Days like these...

No talent?

You think it's just a poem set to music? Kool Moe Dee, Whodini, LL Cool J, Jidenna, etc used real instruments for their melodies. So what they didn't play the instruments themselves? Most singers don't.

Again, no talent? So you can write something as lyrically complex as Not Like Us or Euphoria or Humble? Or something that fuses hip hop and other genres like Cool Like Dat (rebirth of slick) or Walk This Way? Or something as meaningful as Dear Mama or Good Day?

You're highly prejudiced if you can't admit you know nothing past what someone like Lil Wayne or Boosie or Ying Yang Twins (yes, we all know it's supposed to be Yin and Yang)... Hip-hop has always been diverse in subject matter and style. Because what just posted is OBJECTIVELY false!

Edit: also... PLENTY of metal (and other rock/pop songs) do the EXACT same as what you listed. The only difference is that you accept those songs.

Edit#2: if that's your thinking, it takes no skill or talent to yell into a microphone at the top of your lungs about cocaine, hot chicks, braggadocio, etc. It's not real music.

Bro this is too pathetic lol.

I've never seen such a thinly veiled exclamation of racism. I don't even know what to say at this point....bling bling....I'm from the hood.....

First of all, when was the last time you heard hip hop?

Second of all, saying it takes no talent is boggling my mind. Free styling takes no talent? For real? Like actually for real? This is like when people say metal takes no talent as it's just screaming into a microphone, one of the dumbest statements in the world as well. Rapping requires an extremely quick mind, unbelievable wit, and a vast array of literary tools at your disposal. You're so thoroughly wrong here it's embarrassing.

I feel like reading your post lowered my IQ through osmosis....it's like mind rape. The only thing you were right about here is that you are, indeed, sorry. You are one sorry, ignorant human being.

Hip Hop has some of the best music/beats of all time even if you don’t like the fact that a lot of it is simply people talking fast and the themes can be really eh.

Additionally the choruses can be amazing.

You know a certain kind of person wrote this lmao.

But yeah, rap music is bad when Epstein had people who influence the entire fucking world under his thumb.
 
I was sexually abused as a child, so this hits home.

One piece of advice to those who have children: be suspicious, even with family members. Family friends, too. Keep a watchful eye on your child and don't keep your eyes off them for one second, because it's in places where we feel most safe is when we let our guard down.

Edit: As fucked up as this sounds, I speak from experience, so...

I think that's probably reductive, he had a trove of compromising material, and people knew that, but he also couldn't really release any of it without incriminating himself.

I don't think he was actively blackmailing people, it was more like mutually assured destruction. It protected him from the law because you couldn't take him down without taking down a lot of powerful elites.

I don't think he'd have gotten where he did if he was just straight up extorting people. And I think what he did probably goes a lot deeper than just the sex trafficking stuff, but we'll probably never know for sure.
 
She's full of shit.

Clearly, we can all tell that P. Diddy is a monster, but you have to be weary of stragglers who try to use these situations to benefit for themselves...

This bitch is a straggler .

Yea for sure bro I agree with you on that. Just what she's wearing is so off putting. Like put on some actual fucking clothes FFS. This is not a rap video lol
 
I've never got why sampling gets such a pass...it's ripping off someone else's work and slapping cheap new lyrics on it. I don't consider it an entirely challenging form of music. An AI can do this nowadays.
There is inventive sampling, and there is rote sampling. I agree it's lame when someone takes a song, throws a beat under it, and calls it a day. But then you have samples that are made nearly unrecognizable and create something original out of it. That's the good stuff.

you clearly dont know about the genre if you think that is all it has to offer. It takes talent to be able to tell a story and rhyme. You might be looking at the mainstream stuff today which I agree is trash but even then there are still some talented people that people have to search for since it wont be on mainstream like it was in the past.
