Do any of you think its pretty ironic when you listen to people who...?!
Question: say things in their lyrics about 400 yrs of slavery, and how white people try to bring black people down etc (e.g. Ice Cube in his old albums), and then in the next song he will be talkin about killing other young black men in drive-by shootings & sh*t.

Well...what you said is true..I can't lie....Everything a rapper says is true...Slavery did happen..that's why they put it on their album...as for shooting other black men...that's true too...back then the crime rate as sky-high on black on black crime.
Yeah they talk about shooting each other...because they have to keep an "tough image" on themselves...it's all part of the rap industry..and I don't think that image will ever die.
well.... just because i am black doesnt mean i like every other black person in the world
It's just as ironic as white people complaining about reverse racism.
You first must analyze the entire situation. White man brings Africans to America and enslaves them. Then white man grants slaves freedom, but continues to terrorize black man via "Jim Crow" practices. Finally, black man eventually becomes successfull during the industrial boom, ALAS, industrial jobs are shipped to other countries, leaving the black community -- again, jobless, broke, psychologically beaten, drug addicted due to joblessness and depression, and gang bangers out of necessity.
so no, i dont find it ironic. but a tragedy
WHITE PEOPLE DRAGGING AFRICANS FROM THEIR NATIVE LAND AND MAKING THEM PICK COTTON AND TOBACCO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME WANTING TO KILL THE GUY WHO SHOT MY MOTHER SMARTASS
It just means peopl have issues and dont like some people. Just because you are white doesn't mean you like all white people and just because youre black doesnt mean you like all black people. Main reason is- PEOPLE HATE EACH OTHER NO MATTER WHAT RACE THEY ARE
