[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ish Gebor: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by sudaniya: [qb] I fail to see how this song or its video is profound in the least. What esoteric truths did he reveal in that song? There are underground artists that are so much more adept at conveying truly intelligent, revolutionary, inspirational and uplifting ideas... and they can do that with a soul. If *personalities* like Jay Z, P. Diddy, Dr Dre and the others in Hip-Hop that have ostensibly accrued substantial resources... were as intelligent, ambitious and independent as they would have people believe -- why then do they not combine their wealth and create their own record labels, instead of being mere subsidiaries of far more wealthy and powerful corporations? Even if they did not wish to greatly reconfigure the message (s), the narrative (s), image, directions, trends and its consequences... why not at least aspire to manage, control and profit from it? Answer? Because that would be dangerous, and only that would be worthy of praise, recognition and discussion. Nothing in the mainstream is by accident. Everything has a political dimension; when you have virtually every popular Hip-Hip 'artists' glamorising self-destructive violence, ignorance, stupidity, misogny and infantilisation and looking like unclean human filth as they do it... that has a purpose behind it and people directing it. [/qb][/QUOTE]These videos show the "nigger culture" for what it is and how destructive it really is. It's really a confrontation of self-image and introspection. The way the world sees / looks at black people when they look at these "real clips". (I know because I travel) The graphic effects in this are important. Btw Jay Z, P. Diddy had or still have their own record labels. Don't know much about Dre. From what I know Dre is not on that level. Dre had the Beats company and probably still holds shares. Jay Z and P. Diddy are not just rappers, they have become business men with lots of revenue from different investments. This is how they have build financial empires, worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Jay Z's Net Worth: $810 Million In 2017 (this was obviously not by selling rap-records) https://www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2017/05/11/jay-zs-net-worth-810-million-in-2017/#7315754e686f Diddy's Net Worth: $820 Million In 2017 https://www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2017/05/11/diddys-net-worth-820-million-in-2017/#23b6df165566 Dr. Dre's Net Worth: $740 Million In 2017 https://www.forbes.com/sites/zackomalleygreenburg/2017/05/12/dr-dres-net-worth-740-million-in-2017/#43675bf5567d Pharrell Williams Becomes Co-Owner of Denim Brand G-Star https://www.forbes.com/sites/declaneytan/2016/02/10/pharrell-williams-becomes-co-owner-of-denim-brand-g-star/#2738b1ff481d So there are many more… who have invested in technology etc. [/QB][/QUOTE]
