The black Americans are mainly Native Americans, African immigrants, and some blacks in South America, as well as some brown people in Oceania, and brown people born after whites and blacks intermarried. These people are jokingly called Nigga. But the word Nigga means brother, buddy, and buddy only when black people say it to black people. When another race pops out a Nigga, it means a derogatory meaning. In fact, this is also a word invented by white people to mock black people ( This is very similar to our usual verbal language, buddies call each other SB to indicate friendship, but someone who doesn’t know a SB pops out of their mouths is cursing you).
Los Angeles, Compton, the notorious black neighborhood, the poorest city in Los Angeles, is also a city with a high crime rate. Although it is known as the representative city of Gangsta Rap (in fact, it is written in Baidu's entry that ICE-T and Schoolly D invented Gangsta Rap, and NWA promoted Gangsta Rap), I have never been there. It was in my heart. Holy land, but after hearsay, I gave up the idea of going there for a stroll. The black people there are arrogant and rude, racially aware, gang fights and riots are common (the red blood gang and the blue lame gang, the ice cube is sitting on the school bus in the movie, and his classmates are in the car next door. This is what the gangs meant when they talked.) Fighting with weapons is commonplace. White people dare not run wild in a few black neighborhoods. What's more, I am a foreign yellow race.
In the 1980s, whites ruled the United States. This phenomenon did not improve until the popularity of the black movement (in fact, it only got better with the exposure of the media and the replacement of politicians. The black movement led by Martin Luther King Jr. Powerful, but failed to change this white-led city). We can also see this through our eyes in this film. The young black Ice Cube will be searched by the police just to play at a friend’s house. His parents stepped forward to explain that the white police officer directly took the gun and inflicted brutality. NWA was recording a record. During the break, eating hot dogs and drinking Coke would be knocked to the ground by a white police officer, and even taken back to the police station for questioning.
As a result, the NWA composed of several talented and ideal young men became even more angry. In this tragedy, Ice, Mc Ren and Eazy-E wrote the famous gangster rap "Fuck tha Police" in the "Straight Outta Compton" album. (In fact, most of the words are written by Ice alone, that is, the first black fat man who was the first to fly solo because of the fierce performance of money and E falling out in the movie), this song vividly expresses the tragic situation of black people being suppressed at that time.
Young nigga got it bad cuz I'm brown
young black crime must, because their skin is black
And not the other color so police think
sliver think this is the only possible color
They have the authority to kill a minority
authorized on it killing vulnerable groups
Fuck that shit, cuz I is not tha one
operation, are blacks always this way?
Once this album was released, it caused a wave of Gangsta Rap in the United States, such as tupac and Snoop Dogg recorded in movies, as well as BIG, Mobb Deep, DMX, NAS that have never been seen, these musicians or band leaders The gang trend in the U.S. has been close to 20 years, and it didn’t disappear until more commercial artists took the stage more than 20 years later. JAY-Z, EM, fake gangster 50, hemp god, YG (that’s the one who taught black people how to steal yellow people and also People who recorded a MV and released a song) and recently popular Kanye, Drake, etc., these people are representatives of commercialization.
In fact, some of these people's songs are still worth listening to, and it cannot be said that commercialization is wrong, but some things always feel no longer pure, not to be disappointed, I can only say that it is a pity to be an Old School fan.
I'm digressing, let's go back to NWA and the theme of this article, what exactly is HipHop this kind of music wants to express.
HipHop music is black music, and Gangsta Rap, as a sharper type, is not accepted by the domestic public. Naturally, it is because of its swear words. This is understandable. But the real essence is not the big swear words and the extravagant life. Those are just the means they deliberately conceal themselves. These long-existing street language, as artists, they just put these things on the stage intact. What they describe in their songs is only the bottom of the black life. They aspire to be treated equally, receive education and equal treatment, and enjoy medical care and social welfare. People often say that art comes from life. Isn't that what they do?
Rap did a good job of being real. Just as some Rappers say Keep Real, keep it real. Its content is not beautiful, even dirty and spurned by others, but it is true and thought-provoking.
Today i did not even have to use my ak
today I do not need even showed my AK
the I GOT to say IT WAS A Good Day.
It seems indeed a lucky day today
from Ice Cube's solo single after "It The lyrics in "was a good day".
Here I have to fight back against some people's spurning of HipHop, saying they are dirty and indecent, but why don't you think about the different treatment of black people when they are in dire straits? Not to mention far, just at the beginning of the movie, look at the black people. How was it treated by the white police. Imagine your child has been treated this way since he was a child. What will he become when he grows up?
Gangsta Rap contains a lot of sentences and vocabulary that hate the police. This also comes from the different treatment you have received since childhood, as well as the FBI’s interference with truth-tellers in movies. After experiencing too many cases of indiscriminate killings of people of color, you I have to admit that the confrontation between the police and the people reflected in the lyrics has a deep social foundation in the United States.
This kind of life is very unfamiliar to me as a yellow race, but I really didn’t think about it so much when I entered the pit. I just got a stimulating life from it. This kind of stimulus brought me to the habit of observing the rules since I was a child. It was a great excitement, and I fell in love with this kind of music in the rebellious period.
But after listening to many albums and knowing many artists, the initial excitement has disappeared. I am thinking more about the meaning in the lyrics? Why would swear words become mainstream music in the United States? Is it true that young Americans like excitement as much as I do? This kind of question was answered after I caught up with the music of 2PAC. Yes, they still understand humanities, care, and appeals, who are full of swear words.
i'm in tha zone
I was alone here
thinkin '
thinking
' I do not wanna die all alone '
I do not want to die alone
but now ya gone

If I say I never imagined death, it must be lying
my niggas we tha last ones left
brothers, we are the last remaining few
but life goes on
, but life goes on
from the last issue before the murder of 2Pac "Life Goes On" from the album "All Eyez On Me".
If you don’t listen to HipHop, I won’t laugh at you, because everyone’s aesthetic is different, it’s nothing, even if you like things like Phoenix Legend, I won’t laugh at you. Everyone’s choices are different.
But don’t deny it or slander him. For example, the trend of HipHop has spread to China recently. Various kinds of "I drink and get drunk alone" have been popularized by various mainstream TV stations. The titles of MC and AKA are generally not dared to hang on. You With this title, I'm afraid I will say something like "Thank you old iron rocket, nothing wrong" in the next second. I don’t really understand why a serious thing becomes a scream when it reaches China, and the titles of MC and AKA have changed. Yes, I hate the so-called rap that is filled with love. He just doesn’t mean it to me. The real ones are made for commercial purposes or to win the sympathy of others, and they are not made out of real feelings.
The form of HipHop is very easy to learn. Now if some fake rappers have something to do, they have never seen what underground is like when they call themselves underground kings. Seriously, underground life is not something you can imagine on the ground. The reason It’s a niche group, but it’s not recognized. No matter what you do, no matter how good you care about the humanities, even if you list in foreign newspapers, people in China will still be criticized miserably, and people will not calm down and listen to you. Something thinks about the deep meaning, but insults their ears by infinitely attacking you full of swear words, and then flips through Weibo to see the vulgar and indecent jokes.
(Yes, I'm talking about Yin San'er. Before you saw the United States meets Seattle, they appeared on the Seattle Times with the song "Beijing Welcomes You Back".)
For me, a staunch supporter of niche culture, I am a person with no talent. I can only follow the sound of the music. When I sing to the climax, I will recite a few scriptures along with the music. I don’t have my own beats and flow. But these still can't stop my love for HipHop, like a thing or even evaluate a person's status in my heart, these have nothing to do with whether I can do it or not.
Music, I think what I listen to in the end is their attitude, not how elegant the lyrics can evoke your memories, so to speak is disrespect for those pure music. Their attitude is serious, and what they do can make you tell that he is serious, he has an attitude, OK, this is the good music in my heart, and musicians are also good musicians in my heart.
I think the original intention of black people to do HipHop is to express their attitude and anger. They don’t want to be treated unfairly, and they don’t want to be discriminated against drug dealers. After all, the United States, as a multi-ethnic country, contributes to the United States as a whole. Only whites and blacks have made indelible contributions, but why should they be treated differently? They are oppressed so they use their own words to scold them. Are they dirty or indecent?
I think that you must have an attitude when things happen, and put everything else aside, just like in "Slam Dunk", no matter whether Xiangbei can defeat the mountain king in the end, I love Xiangbei very much, don't talk about feelings or childhood. Yes, they insist on their attitude and go further and further on the tortuous road, so they deserve our respect.
The last thing I want to say is that the HipHop that I like is music made by people with attitude, and also those nutritious things. Not many capitalists who wear business clothes now use the money from the circle to satisfy their own selfish desires. It's impossible for me to chase a group of blind idiots. This is my fucking attitude.
I finished writing this article in about 8 hours. It’s not a film review. It’s just something I want to say. I really can’t understand the brain-disabled children cultivated by some mainstream media nowadays, and some have been caught by that piece of red cloth. Stupid idiots who have covered their eyes, except to criticize what they don’t understand, they are negative. I don’t want to comment on you anymore. List the rules and tell me how these things are not good. I may accept them humbly. May look.
This time I also realized the shallowness of my knowledge, similar to the way primary school students write essays. In the end, there was no way to use a lot of things in the article. When I read it, I still felt like a running account.
I think I still have to stick to it, make my own attitude, and pay tribute to the pioneers.
When I was writing, I was still listening to my favorite Yin San'er, and saw that a radio station about Yin San'er in Yuncun was blocked again. Hey, it's really hard to tell the truth. Friends who persevere have a long way to go.
When there is no inequality in this city, we stop talking swear words - Yin San'er
