Dj Jones Rivals
Crabs in a bucket
When did it all wrong? An art form created in the Bronx in the 1970s initially joined a generation. Gangs who had been rivals in the 1970s joined at the hip-hop culture and music.
The phenomenon of hip-hop started in the streets of New York, and quickly spread across the country in the 1980s. People who once resolved their differences on the streets began crushing his beef at the dance floor or into the microphone. Break dance and emcee battles quickly replaced violence as the measuring stick to determine the hardest cat on the block.
As began as an innocent competition, however, became mortal in late 1990 with the senseless murders of Tupac Shakur and Notorious BIG The Rap battles began to be very personal and, ultimately, led to the disappearance of two of hip-hop icons.
The hatred that exists between some of the brightest stars of hip-hop is reminiscent the period of slavery, when the division between African Americans bore the crabs in a bucket mentality. This theory states that whenever an African American was another African American to the top pull him down before he did leave his current situation.
Recently, based in Nashville rapper Young Buck allegedly assaulted an Atlanta deejay to play a disc by its rival The Game.
According to SOHH.com, "held in the rapper Young Buck Night Club in Atlanta. After her performance, Buck announced he had a business to handle with Hot 107.9 DJ, disc jockey before Buck was hitting the stage. Although DJ stood by itself, was outnumbered by members of the Buck environment that jumped in. As a result, Hot 107.9 program director Jerry Smokin 'B' has banned Young Buck from the playlist of the station. "
Young Buck alleged assault took many deejays across the country to consider banning all their music.
Although rap music has always been very competitive, many rappers today do not realize the power they have as role models, and decides to use its destructive influence in media and not to raise community Black. In past generations, African American youth emulated preachers and teachers. However, in the 21st century, the next generation of Black leaders to look rappers and athletes of guidance and inspiration.
After the sudden death of Tupac and Biggie, many rappers realized the power of words. That generation rappers to understand the consequences of negativity in the wax, and opted for a more positive approach to settling differences. However, after 50 Cent and Ja 2003 State meat became the talk of hip-hop, many rappers began to see the meat as a way to earn quick money and destroy the career of an opponent in the process.
Consequently, 50 Cent and G Unit crew began beefing with Fat Joe, Jadakiss, and Nas, for their affiliation with Ja Rule and The Inc. Records. After the 50 protected, the game refused to participate in a battle with Nas and Jadakiss, 50 excommunicated Game G Unit Records.
After 50 Cent was a popular radio program in New York to announce the dismissal the game from G-Unit camp. After 50 Cent diss on radio, Game entourage tried to cope to G-Unit entourage radio station. The two crews exchanged fire, leaving one crew member injured game.
After the incident Radio New York The game began exchanging insults with all the endless list of G-Unit, which culminated in the November 26 incident in which Young Buck, an artist from G-Unit allegedly assaulted a disc jockey to play the hit game "Okay (One Blood)."
When rappers ever learn? Hip-hop culture has become a worldwide phenomenon dollar billions in recent years and much success for all for all. The fact that a fan buys a disc the game does not mean they will not buy an album from an artist G-Unit.
Young Buck alleged assault in Atlanta has been a detriment to his career because of the ban of his records in many radio stations. In an attempt to down an old rival, may have shot down his own career in the process.
The beef between the rap is the main reason for African-Americans has not been able to reach the potential it has. A town full of all the talent in the world can not achieve the promise " ground "that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. talked about because of his jealousy and envy.
When will rappers learn that they have the power to change the entire community Black for the better? They have the power to teach children that violence is not the way to solve a problem. They have the power to teach youth more ways to succeed than selling drugs on the corner.
Recently, New Orleans-based rappers BG and Baby, next to the meat after the tragic death sister's baby. Houston rapper Chamillionaire, Mike Jones and also reinforces and even crushed spoke of working together in the near future. Perhaps the whole nation hip-hop as you can see that the actual path that Black men handle a negative situation.
