Whoa whoa whoa, you need to pull back the throttle. Firstly, Del and Kanye? Your confused. There is no context to that argument. Its like comparing Jerry Rice and Kobe Bryant, wrong sport dipshit. Del is not a political rapper. Del is a classic four elements rapper, del is hip hop. Breed on battles, dj's, graf and breaking. Del has paid his dues and rolls with crews that just exude hip hop in the true school form. While YE may have been poor for a brief period in between being a suburban house negro to being a media whore; I would hardly say that he has paid his dues.
As for 'pac. Bitch please, could you be any more cliche? Do you want to discuss the injustice of mumia? How about ferinhite 911, great film huh? George bush sure is stupid. I like Lawrence Fishburns approach, he doesn't like 'pac and when asked why he responds "cause that nigga knew better". And yeah he says ignorant shit and thats his downfall. And everyone loves him because its so fucking taboo to say otherwise, especially for white boys.
And as for the "Diamond wearing faggot" remark you obviously don't know what the fuck is up. I got some time, your moms in the bathroom. So here it is. Sierra Leone is a country located in NW Africa. There has been a long standing civil war within Sierra Leone largely fueled be diamonds and Debeers in particular. The problem with this civil war is the implications for children. The use of childsoldiers is extremely wide spread. Children are kidnapped and pumped full of drugs and handed M1's. And in the fallout, they roam the country shooting merchants for food becaue this is their model of the world. Because life is worthless to them and this is how they feed themselves. And on top of this, you have the rape camps. Where young girls are kidnapped and raped repeatedly for months on end. Think of your mom, your sister, your gf, your best friend, your neice being stolen from you and raped everyday. Just "close your eyes and imagine" as Ye says, that shit happening to someone you love. And then think of that being you rmodel of the world, not sor the minority, for tens upon tens of thousand of kids. Think of the implications of the national psyche and the future. And that is reality in sierra leone.
And that, son, is why Kany West is a "diamond wearing faggot" because he has the nerve to name check sierra leone as a fashion statement, like "yeah i wear diamonds but i have a vague knowledge of that what i'm doing is immoral".He is that outa touch. He is an uncle tom negro and he's fucking with shit that means things to us (the REAL heads) things that keep us from sleep, things we pay 15 g's a year to study, things i give my life up to change. And what i'm saying is that while no one claimed Ye is real or underground or whatever, with his content hes stepping those lines, but only for the connotations of that sort of "rebel music". because its fashionable and cool to be somewhat conscious these days. While from the beggining we've been voluntering in food banks, putting ourlives on hold, alienating ourselves from our friends and family for our morals and hip hop has been the muse. And thats why you become a artist, because its all you got.
So I'm sorry to hate but you need to sit the fuck down because you need to aks someone. And its kids like you that make it hard for me to keep my head up at shows. So just stop, enjoy hip hop but realize you don't know shit so don't front, its fine, just don't front
