Idk if it’s because I just woke up but this interview made me wanna listen to 21 talk more on certain issues/situations 🥴 he makes sense and no rapper in his position is giving it up like how he jus did 💯
It ain't about "rappers" it's about the terrorist gangs that most rappers glorify. Everyday people just trying to make it in the low income areas are paying the consequences. Little kids catching stray bullets, hard working black folks being victimized, robbed, and attacked. They aren't NPCs. These are real people with lives, dreams, and aspirations being cut down in the middle of these gang wars.
True but the problem also is these rappers aren’t rappers they are street gang dudes that know how to rap alittle . And that’s why we got drill everywhere now and mass killings
You can’t blame kids being a product of they environment, if you seeing death 3-4 bodies a year. Seeing or selling drugs. Seeing yo momma get beat by the neighbors seeing you father get his ass beat damn near to death by the police
THAT SAYS MORE ABOUT THE LISTENERS THAN IT DOES THE RAPPER WHO IF YOU REMBER IS AN ARTIST. THAT GUY WHO PAINTED A MAN EATING A BEAR OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT IS PRAISED FOR CAPTURING AN ASPECT OF THE HUMAN CONDITION MEANWHILE A GUY IN THE PROJECTS WHO TALKS ABOUT HOW IT IS TO REALLY LIVE IN IT IS SEEN AS THE ONE WHO GLORIFIES VIOLENCE, DO YOU SEE WHERE IM COMING FROM? P.S. FOR WHOM IT MAY CONCERN IM NOT SHOUTING, I ONLY TYPE IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE I CAN.
@@cudi313 To me I believe the difference is no one got hurt from the artist’s painting and it didn’t have a negative effect on society as far as influence. And on top of that the artist didn’t glorify it as he’s a bear eater or that it’s cool to eat bears. But rappers have to have the accountability for the influence that they have because people are living by there words and ending up dead or in jail. So a rapper glorifying doing bad things is going to be looked at as a bad person. If rapper can let go off their ego and man up and say this isn’t cool to do or that we just rap about it for entertainment purposes only, than it wouldn’t entirely their fault, but since they trying to live a persona because it sells (which I get) than you to have to take the good with the bad.
well he said in a interview when he first started that all his shit is fake, he only says what sells, he's fake ass fuck but nobody gives a damn for some reason.
@@apeglizzo6782 so that's a good reason for your favorite rapper to keep perpetuating violence and our kids and innocent people to die so they can get rich and not give back
Wrong. Hurt people hurt people and thats not to say every single individual responds to pain that way but overall as a people it's psychological. Do all pitbulls behave aggressive? Or do all pitbulls get labeled a certain way because of the actions of others? You can kick some dogs and get attacked while some will cry even tho it's in their nature to attack.

@@metaLungiez all that shyt is fake lil brainwashed lil dude if god was all good why would some people be born suffering? Why would the earth have so many ways to die by natural disaster? Why would he let people starve to death?
Yup I think he need a few more years to prefect the messages he wants to get across and he could become a great older voice later in hiphop. I have always been more impressed by some of the stuff he speaks more then his music. Sometimes he goes left but for the most part he is maturing in front of us.
Look at how much sense he makes compared to other rappers. Same with nipsey his Eritrean background informed him he was destitute/second class by nature which what America will instill in you. Nigerian Americans are the richest and best educated migrant community in the US not because they're naturally smarter or better entrepreneurs but because they at their core don't see themselves as inferior. They can go to Stanford, Harvard ect with a thick accent and only care about attainment. Whereas a black American feels like he's proving something or has to be something different to be accepted ect.
@@skp8748 Actually it’s because most of the Nigerians that come to the US are the best and the brightest from their country. Those aren’t American black folks in Canada and in Europe doing all of that ratchet sh**. Those aren’t American black folks in China rotten in prison. As a matter of fact. A vast majority of the black population in NYC are Caribbeans and Africans and just as ratchet as can be.
@@slickrick8046 willing to water any SINGLE prison in America has more black inmates than the entire African American prison population of the entirety of China.
@@slickrick8046 in the UK African refugees have better academic achievement, better financial attainment and are less likely to be involved in violent crime than they're Carribbean counterparts. I think you're downplaying the generational impact of slavery and lack of communal institutions. Jamaican kids in the UK will often have grandparents who lived in the UK yet they're unable to integrate or take advantage of opportunities in the UK. Pakistani and Indian immigrants have much higher rate of home ownership and have permeated the very highest levels of industry and politics in the UK. There's inferiority complex that unfortunately rears its head and impedes individual progress in descendants of Slavery. They also don't have the communal cohesion to support eachother or the information base to share with eachother. Every thing for them is in reaction to white people.
@@Gr33dy214 no it’s not! There is a reason foreigners come and pass native born blacks! You buy into every excuse! Oh the white man this and that, you can’t name the white guy keeping you down though just shooting yourselves claiming spin the block
Hey, we come and take your acting roles, why not educated you on your culture as well? You let cultures sell you it, so come and buy what we are selling.
British education system in childhood is very good. Now that same kid comes to the US and is trying to understand what's what. 21 a descendant of Slavery he's just as lost/hurt as the community he became a part of but those early years of British schooling allow him to be objective
It’s a lot of black leaders in our community we just don’t hold them up because they are not Rich or Famous. The new young generation only cares about clout
After 30 you realize what's going on with music and how it trick you in your youth...mostly making decisions that you can't come back from once you become aware
That was a great clip and great convo and examples you both gave… I wish there were more of these conversations in this manner going on in the world today…
We need to understand our influence in life. Bc when people look up to you, you do have accountability, and responsibility. What you say holds weight and energy.

One thing rappers should definitely rap about more is their transition from the streets to better positions. It's cool to hear a person story, but don't let the past be the only thing your audience knows
You don’t make the world a better place by just knowing, you make the world a better place by doing. 21 saying some good stuff but his next song is still gonna mention nothing but violence, sex and money and the music is what has the biggest influence
What you want him rap about then? Chance The Rapper don't rap about those things but y'all not streaming Chance The Rapper, not his latest music let's be real
This is a real conversation 💯this is the vibe you should be pushing! 21 has God in him, I can see it, and he doesn’t seem conflicted. This is how you use a platform!
21 should consider joining more discussions like these. I don’t agree with the last point he was making about not being able to sympathize more with the passing of a less noticeable person because it contradicts his earlier point of people not sympathizing with rappers who rap about their lifestyles and experiences. In one sentence you’re asking for understanding and in the next dismissing understanding. But overall, its great to hear him speak because you realize he has a conscience. I’d grab a coffee and chat with him. I think people should provide more pushback I think he’d enjoy the conversation.
I mean if we’re being real that last point is definitely true tho. Like if someone you’re aware of or a fan of dies you’re just naturally gonna feel worse. Like I probably still feel worse for Takeoff passing than the 100 people whose names I don’t even know and I would’ve never met or been aware of anyway who have been shot while I’ve been typing this. It’s just how it is
@@Angels510 you don't have to know them personally to have a connection for human life . Most of the people these days emotionally influenced to be triggered or to have compassion through social media. It's very temporary tho; the downside. None of these rappers make music that has a long shelf life, or make music that builds emotional attachment that would cause us to collectively mourn. They are just trendy for a Era.
@@Angels510 to make a long story short none of these rappers will evoke emotion of grief, but they'll trend on Twitter, and blogs for a little bit🤷🏿♂️
We all needa believe in change more. We all needa stand up for what’s right more, Even if we’re in the wrong. The only way we gone learn is by mistakes & taking them as lessons instead of reasons to be worse.
21 is missing one key point. I agree don’t blame the rapper, blame the industry. Because we have and also had positive forces in the rap community. How come none of their music is main stream?
@@moe3zy14 nah that’s cap that’s not the reason, its not identifying its you like feeling tough and its the type of music you’re used to listening to when you workout when you drive etc. This shits been pushed by the labels to keep the African American community exactly where it is, being controlled by the labels and the industry. We won’t say who controls and owns the labels because we seen what happened to Ye when he exposed it all but anyway, none of this is on accident. There’s a reason DJ Khaled gets the Grammy nomination over JID/Denzel Curry speaking more conscious shit…
@@zaydevans2077 Yup. This was the way they’d keep their private owned prisons filled and keep getting funded by the government. By promoting criminal activity through the thing that was driving our culture at the time which was Hip-Hop.
21 said exactly what I been saying. Of course when rappers or celebrities die we pay more attention because we know more about them, and have more of a connection with them honestly, through their art. Whether it’s their music or their movies, whatever they do. We’re a fan of their work so we tend to feel some sort of connection. So obvioulsy if they die, the loss affects us. Vs some random person whom we know absolutely nothing about. It’s not that we do not care about people dying, because I’m pretty sure no decent person wants innocent people dying. But if people who we know NOTHING ABOUT die, how the hell are we supposed to know about it, and how are we supposed to properly empathize. While I do agree with Charleston White’s overall message, I always thought that argument was pretty stupid
@@emkayafrika7 okay so since you feel that way. Go out in the world and do something about it. Go help people. Sittin typin on ya little keyboard ain’t doin shit for u
Accountability is understanding that rapping isn’t the cause of the problem but it is influential to young people so it does help to perpetuate the problem. That’s really the issue. If those in hip hop know it perpetuates the cycle and culture of violence, and they continue to rap about the same content that influences young people to keep it going then holding them responsible is something men who care about their communities are going to do. It is what it is. 🤷🏾♂️
Putting more positive influence and influencers in the community would help and until we do this is what the youth has to look up to. we have to do better overall
@@dominicandream4898 my problem is with 21s lack of accountability. Malcolm x said we have to be better than the white man. Not worse. The culture has given up as a whole.
You and everybody else who say this dumb as shit. If rap never existed crime would still be the same next y’all would say it’s bc video games & tv stfu
I mean they deserve a lion share of the blame, gang banging was mainly in Cali during the 90s, it wasn’t widespread until Lil Wayne who wasn’t even from there n one of the most popular stars in 2007 started throwing up blood signs and glorifying it that ppl from other states wanted to be gang affiliated, Lil kids want to be like and dress like the rappers n little girls n boys clown them for not looking like them or being gangster, when Disney be putting 🌈 if the cartoons why is the community so outraged if it’s not really influencing kids 🤔
Rappers fuel alot of the fires and instigate small beefs into something much bigger. Remember when Young MA said something about Tooka and damn near started a NY vs Chiraq war?
Hell naw rappers ain't to blame its the streets period even without rap this would still be goin on in the streets everywhere what yall think was happening before there was rap u don't think it was violence those rappers come from dat life so now it's get put in the forefront more and dey do influence alot of people but if u let rappers influence u u was weak anyway I was young listening to music and dey didn't influence to go kill anyone da street life I was already living influence dat
@@PBandShayne that example is such BS because she made an honest mistake. You act like she did it on purpose like she wanted to beef. She didn’t know Tooka was a person. She thought it was a strain of weed because of how so many drill rappers say they’re smoking on Tooka in their songs.
Well that’s bc rappers have tremendous influence in our community, and everyone sees it but us. They set trends and dictate what’s cool. Rappers just don’t want to hear that because they have families to feed and want to rap about what they think will sell. The italian community had just as much street shit in their community, main difference is they didn’t have a musical culture that glorified violence and promiscuity.
Rappers do have a lot of influence on kids. I remember my goofy ass 18 year old going out and buying that ski mask he's wearing for Halloween. I told him what are trying to be, a goon?
@@bobbytatum84 facts I remember when Nelly came out with the song “ Grillz” and me and my stupid friends went around putting foil in our mouths pretending we had grills
You can tell 21 Savage is truly passionate about this topic & I think he would be a great advocate for change in the right direction. It won’t happen overnight, but it can happen.
With all due respect Mr.21, ppl blame rappers bcuz RAP has become the culture, the values that is leading the Youth!! So they’re picking up what y’all are putting down!! 🤷🏾
With all due respect dude, your statement would make sense if criminal activity in the black community started when NWA dropped the Straight Outta Compton tape. What was the excuse when Disco was the hottest music in the black community?
@@reginaldjiles4759 with all due Respect Dudest Dude…. It was no excuse, but there is and was a huge detrimental difference…… now OUR YOUTH are voluntarily choosing to become serial killers. Some in hopes of glorification and wealth. And yes, even NWA had an negative impact on the minds. So slow down there Dudest Dude, I did NOT saying “rappers” nor “the music” of today’s time, I said “ppl blame rappers because RAP has become the culture”. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ It’s all good, I appreciate the reply Reggie!! 🤟🏾🤣
Then u good doesn't apply to u let Charleston tell it gangsta rap making every blacc person wanna go kill each other...it might look like dat but naw homie
I agreed with him up until the end… We gotta show some compassion for others I know it’s hard like he said cause we don’t know em outside of being mentioned in a song lyric but that’s still somebody’s baby, cousin, sibling, friend, etc.
Mfer ur not making sense. If your momma died today. You'd cry. If you heard MY momma dies today...would you cry? Answer...NO. Would you feel bad? Maybe...but it ain't the same level of compassion. That's what 21 was saying. What tf u talking bout?
@@xShapeShifter I ain’t gotta know your mama to know it’s fucked up to sing a song dissing her after she’s no longer on the earth… Shit ain’t rocket science I ain’t saying we gotta put flowers on these people graves but we’re literally not even letting em rest in peace cause mfs wanna disrespect the dead… Tf is YOU talking bout?
Much love to 21, he seems like a solid dude that’s very understanding of social issues in our communities. However, someone needs to ask these young brothers, what are they going to do with their large platform to actually bring change in their communities. He’s aware of this black on black crime and negative stereotypes but what is he actually going to do that will be a lasting impact. We can sit down and debate these issues all day but if no one takes action especially someone with so much power and influence, there will never be another MLK or Malcom X

“Hov is back, real life stories told though rap, niggas acting like I sold you crack, like I told you sell drugs, no hov did that so fortunately you wouldn’t have to go through that”
He said “u can’t expect people to preach to what they don’t see” but then mentions people who preached something they only saw in their minds. Malcolm x and mlk - they didn’t preach about what they saw everyday but what they wanted to see. I think we r supposed to project a better future even if it’s just something we imagine cuz that’s were the change will start.

I genuinely just said a prayer for you. Not being funny bc I do it. On a daily. Pick up a book and read. Any book. A hobby,stay focused on the what will be,and not what was. Im so sorry for all your loss. Ive lost a lot as well. My daddy at 6. Messed up sight to see. There are ppl you can talk to,places to go as well. All in all talk to God. He never fails. Take your time. Walk your TRUTH. Stay genuine. Stay humble. Sending love your way.
First of all, I am sorry for your loss. I know this may sound cold at first, but you don't need anything to live FOR. You just need to LIVE, one day at a time. I wish I was able to understand at your age that you don't need to be in the rush to become something. You just need to be the best you can be today. In time you may find that you DO have something positive to offer the world. You just need to be patient, humble, and eager to keep learning until you know what it is. In the meantime, avoid any action and any person that is self-destructive. I wish you PEACE AND BLESSINGS on your journey.

@@giftedx1391 exactly he can't have a constructive dialog.He always end up yelling and bringing out guns which he is speaking against violence I use to rock with on everything but now I can see
2:16 - There is more to talk about than just criminal activity. Gang members can be honest about the hurt you said they go through. They can be open about the mental and emotional struggles they deal with. That type of realness may even help people to better understand why they act the way they do, and more people might be able to empathise with them instead of just seeing _anyone who even looks like them_ as 'thugs' who were 'born evil'. 🖤 👶🏿
It's hard to talk about other stuff when yu were literally born in it and they wouldn't about nothing "soft" like mental health because that's not how most of them are it sad but it's the honest truth
I'm so tired of these rappers saying there rapping about what they see, how it is, or where they came from. They don't frame it in a manner of this what I used to do or seen. They don't put it in the form of a story 99 percent of the time. You have songs and rappers that do that, but for the most part it's in the context of the present and I will do what I'm rapping about. They say that's all they see and all they know, but they traveling the world and constantly on there phones and internet. I guess they didn't see or hear about Ahmad Aubrey, the white boy in Buffalo that shot up the grocery store, the non-sense Herschel Walker talking, poverty in black countries that some of them have traveled to, etc.... I guess they don't have an imagination. Lupe from the hood and made a song about riding in a robot traversing the hood. Ghostface made a song about famous figures in nursery rhymes, but portrayed them as individuals in the projects. Pac made a song about shooting it out with the police, but it was clearly a story being told as if it was a short story in a book. Next time you see a gangster rapper or street rapper. Walk up to him and tell him he's an actor or don't live what he rap about. See how that goes. They only claim that when they defending this B.S. or when the FEDS come
It is hard to feel sympathy for someone that past if you don't know their story or the reason behind it. We feel sympathy for most rappers cause they come from where most are. Rappers are our role models. Every rapper always tell you believe in your dreams it's possible. It's the gang shit that takes their life and sometimes the lifestyle they start living with the money they earned.
Lol you shouldn’t need a backstory to feel sorry for someone dying. Death is death no matter who it is. No one deserves to be murdered. You gotta be some type of crazy if you need they story just to feel a way about them dying.
Feeling sorry and sympathy are to different things you can feel sorry for any death but do you show sympathy or empathy or any other feeling to every death?? I don't cry everytime I hear someone died. But I do cry if I know that person or was close to them. That's what I was referring to.
Damn ak I didn't know you had good content/gems like this. I thought you were bad for the culture but if your able to have these conversations I'm willing to listen and give respect

Actually it’s because most of the Nigerians that come to the US are the best and the brightest from their country. Those aren’t American black folks in Canada and in Europe doing all of that ratchet sh**. Those aren’t American black folks in China rotten in prison.
As a matter of fact. A vast majority of the black population in NYC are Caribbeans and Africans and just as ratchet as can be.

I think you're downplaying the generational impact of slavery and lack of communal institutions.
Jamaican kids in the UK will often have grandparents who lived in the UK yet they're unable to integrate or take advantage of opportunities in the UK. Pakistani and Indian immigrants have much higher rate of home ownership and have permeated the very highest levels of industry and politics in the UK.
There's inferiority complex that unfortunately rears its head and impedes individual progress in descendants of Slavery. They also don't have the communal cohesion to support eachother or the information base to share with eachother.
Every thing for them is in reaction to white people.

NO HE IS NOT!!!!!!!!! He’s ignorant
High key
He's literally a hipocrite... and someone who says "high key" just don't speak
British education system in childhood is very good. Now that same kid comes to the US and is trying to understand what's what.
21 a descendant of Slavery he's just as lost/hurt as the community he became a part of but those early years of British schooling allow him to be objective
Nah you just high key ignorant as hell
The average mind will sound like a genius to a stupid mind.
“I’m not saying it’s right I’m saying it’s understandable”
You can tell ppl they’re wrong in the right way, you just gotta have compassion.
It’s a lot of black leaders in our community we just don’t hold them up because they are not Rich or Famous. The new young generation only cares about clout
Earn Your Leisure nem gonna be the new leaders. the financial revolution is coming.

U need clout , money and connections with everything it helps and also we need come together.
Savage just turned 30 and I can definitely see the growth as someone that also just turned 30…Age will mature you if you allow yourself to grow

That’s from the raising kanan power show ‼️👁🗣
Nigga stfu ain’t Ntn well said about that
After listening to this interview, we lack a lot of education in the black community.
One thing rappers should definitely rap about more is their transition from the streets to better positions. It's cool to hear a person story, but don't let the past be the only thing your audience knows
Facts, that is true, I feel like that gonna be on some motivational type of thing also
They already do that
Rappers have to realize that with the power of their influence they can create change! The messengers can alter many minds
You don’t make the world a better place by just knowing, you make the world a better place by doing. 21 saying some good stuff but his next song is still gonna mention nothing but violence, sex and money and the music is what has the biggest influence
Facts.
Don’t listen to his music nobody is forging ya

@@qtace8711 he didn’t say he was, we all can agree he talking but his music still gone be murder murder kill kill sex sex his next album
What you want him rap about then?
Chance The Rapper don't rap about those things but y'all not streaming Chance The Rapper, not his latest music let's be real
21 savage always has a good perspective
This is a real conversation 💯this is the vibe you should be pushing! 21 has God in him, I can see it, and he doesn’t seem conflicted. This is how you use a platform!
Where does your profile picture come from?
@@Avogadros_number Ghostbusters
21 Savage sounds like he matured into a very wise man shout out to him, keep talking on the real issues and spread awareness.
21 has grown. Would love to see a sit down with him and Charleston. That would be a legendary interview
21 should consider joining more discussions like these. I don’t agree with the last point he was making about not being able to sympathize more with the passing of a less noticeable person because it contradicts his earlier point of people not sympathizing with rappers who rap about their lifestyles and experiences. In one sentence you’re asking for understanding and in the next dismissing understanding. But overall, its great to hear him speak because you realize he has a conscience. I’d grab a coffee and chat with him. I think people should provide more pushback I think he’d enjoy the conversation.
I mean if we’re being real that last point is definitely true tho. Like if someone you’re aware of or a fan of dies you’re just naturally gonna feel worse. Like I probably still feel worse for Takeoff passing than the 100 people whose names I don’t even know and I would’ve never met or been aware of anyway who have been shot while I’ve been typing this. It’s just how it is
@@Angels510 you don't have to know them personally to have a connection for human life . Most of the people these days emotionally influenced to be triggered or to have compassion through social media. It's very temporary tho; the downside.
None of these rappers make music that has a long shelf life, or make music that builds emotional attachment that would cause us to collectively mourn. They are just trendy for a Era.
@@Angels510 to make a long story short none of these rappers will evoke emotion of grief, but they'll trend on Twitter, and blogs for a little bit🤷🏿♂️
Music is very powerful and rappers refuse to acknowledge that fact.
We all needa believe in change more. We all needa stand up for what’s right more, Even if we’re in the wrong. The only way we gone learn is by mistakes & taking them as lessons instead of reasons to be worse.
This conversation went over AK's head just like cordae
21 said "we love blaming the rappers"...and I know Ak was thinking inside like Mann...I do. Lol 😂
Damn I didn’t know 21 was this insightful. I would love if he had his own podcast one day
Guess demon time is really hurt people time. Accountability is always missing.
I mean, what is a demons job? I never heard of a demon who wants to not hurt people
New found respect for 21 👊🏾
He still bouta be rappin bout killing blacks and doing drugs. Tf lol
@@Yuldsyo videos is nun like ak bro y u cap for publicity
21 is missing one key point. I agree don’t blame the rapper, blame the industry. Because we have and also had positive forces in the rap community. How come none of their music is main stream?
Because most of us can identify with the gangsters and shit.
@@moe3zy14 nah that’s cap that’s not the reason, its not identifying its you like feeling tough and its the type of music you’re used to listening to when you workout when you drive etc. This shits been pushed by the labels to keep the African American community exactly where it is, being controlled by the labels and the industry. We won’t say who controls and owns the labels because we seen what happened to Ye when he exposed it all but anyway, none of this is on accident. There’s a reason DJ Khaled gets the Grammy nomination over JID/Denzel Curry speaking more conscious shit…
People aren’t buying it listening to it as much
@@zaydevans2077 Yup. This was the way they’d keep their private owned prisons filled and keep getting funded by the government. By promoting criminal activity through the thing that was driving our culture at the time which was Hip-Hop.
They are!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF KENDRICK LAMAR, JCOLE, JAY Z, like bruh trap rap is literally just one facet of rap like damnnn
21 said exactly what I been saying. Of course when rappers or celebrities die we pay more attention because we know more about them, and have more of a connection with them honestly, through their art. Whether it’s their music or their movies, whatever they do. We’re a fan of their work so we tend to feel some sort of connection. So obvioulsy if they die, the loss affects us. Vs some random person whom we know absolutely nothing about. It’s not that we do not care about people dying, because I’m pretty sure no decent person wants innocent people dying. But if people who we know NOTHING ABOUT die, how the hell are we supposed to know about it, and how are we supposed to properly empathize. While I do agree with Charleston White’s overall message, I always thought that argument was pretty stupid

Accountability is understanding that rapping isn’t the cause of the problem but it is influential to young people so it does help to perpetuate the problem. That’s really the issue. If those in hip hop know it perpetuates the cycle and culture of violence, and they continue to rap about the same content that influences young people to keep it going then holding them responsible is something men who care about their communities are going to do. It is what it is. 🤷🏾♂️
Putting more positive influence and influencers in the community would help and until we do this is what the youth has to look up to. we have to do better overall
@@dominicandream4898 my problem is with 21s lack of accountability. Malcolm x said we have to be better than the white man. Not worse. The culture has given up as a whole.
It's not influential to all young people. Just people in the hood. No suburban kid is gonna pick up a stick after listening to 21 ☠️.
Facts
You and everybody else who say this dumb as shit. If rap never existed crime would still be the same next y’all would say it’s bc video games & tv stfu
I salute 21 after this! He said all real shit this entire interview 💙✊
One best 21 interviews 🤟🏽🐐
They do blame the rapper for everything 😂😂😂
I mean they deserve a lion share of the blame, gang banging was mainly in Cali during the 90s, it wasn’t widespread until Lil Wayne who wasn’t even from there n one of the most popular stars in 2007 started throwing up blood signs and glorifying it that ppl from other states wanted to be gang affiliated, Lil kids want to be like and dress like the rappers n little girls n boys clown them for not looking like them or being gangster, when Disney be putting 🌈 if the cartoons why is the community so outraged if it’s not really influencing kids 🤔
Rappers fuel alot of the fires and instigate small beefs into something much bigger. Remember when Young MA said something about Tooka and damn near started a NY vs Chiraq war?
Are they not tho?
Hell naw rappers ain't to blame its the streets period even without rap this would still be goin on in the streets everywhere what yall think was happening before there was rap u don't think it was violence those rappers come from dat life so now it's get put in the forefront more and dey do influence alot of people but if u let rappers influence u u was weak anyway I was young listening to music and dey didn't influence to go kill anyone da street life I was already living influence dat
@@PBandShayne that example is such BS because she made an honest mistake. You act like she did it on purpose like she wanted to beef. She didn’t know Tooka was a person. She thought it was a strain of weed because of how so many drill rappers say they’re smoking on Tooka in their songs.
Charleston white has said hurt people hurts people ah million times. He said bullies bully bc they’ve been bullied..
This was great
He really broke that shit down. Great convo
There's a difference between just telling a story and antagonizing your opps. And the latter is what is at the forefront rn
He has matured so much.💯
I think what he trying to say is all party’s in situations like that have nothing to lose and that’s what we gotta fix 💪🏽
Also he hit the nail on the head with the middle east analogy. In America we have child soldiers but they don't get sympathy
21! Went in on some profound, ideologies; he’s a lot deeper than most can fathom. #Bravo21!
I’ll just say this. Words matter. And music is influential. Especially on the youth!
Well that’s bc rappers have tremendous influence in our community, and everyone sees it but us. They set trends and dictate what’s cool. Rappers just don’t want to hear that because they have families to feed and want to rap about what they think will sell. The italian community had just as much street shit in their community, main difference is they didn’t have a musical culture that glorified violence and promiscuity.
💯🎯
True
Rappers do have a lot of influence on kids. I remember my goofy ass 18 year old going out and buying that ski mask he's wearing for Halloween. I told him what are trying to be, a goon?
@@bobbytatum84 facts I remember when Nelly came out with the song “ Grillz” and me and my stupid friends went around putting foil in our mouths pretending we had grills
But leave it to the nigga that ONLY has dead rappers on his playlist saying that’s not the case.

Empathy is not about knowing someone wtf, it's an human emotion .

You can tell 21 Savage is truly passionate about this topic & I think he would be a great advocate for change in the right direction. It won’t happen overnight, but it can happen.
With all due respect Mr.21, ppl blame rappers bcuz RAP has become the culture, the values that is leading the Youth!! So they’re picking up what y’all are putting down!! 🤷🏾
With all due respect dude, your statement would make sense if criminal activity in the black community started when NWA dropped the Straight Outta Compton tape. What was the excuse when Disco was the hottest music in the black community?
@@reginaldjiles4759 with all due Respect Dudest Dude…. It was no excuse, but there is and was a huge detrimental difference…… now OUR YOUTH are voluntarily choosing to become serial killers. Some in hopes of glorification and wealth. And yes, even NWA had an negative impact on the minds. So slow down there Dudest Dude, I did NOT saying “rappers” nor “the music” of today’s time, I said “ppl blame rappers because RAP has become the culture”. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ It’s all good, I appreciate the reply Reggie!! 🤟🏾🤣

Mfer ur not making sense. If your momma died today. You'd cry. If you heard MY momma dies today...would you cry? Answer...NO. Would you feel bad? Maybe...but it ain't the same level of compassion. That's what 21 was saying. What tf u talking bout?

Much love to 21, he seems like a solid dude that’s very understanding of social issues in our communities.
However, someone needs to ask these young brothers, what are they going to do with their large platform to actually bring change in their communities. He’s aware of this black on black crime and negative stereotypes but what is he actually going to do that will be a lasting impact. We can sit down and debate these issues all day but if no one takes action especially someone with so much power and influence, there will never be another MLK or Malcom X
21 has been doing a great job with these new interviews. I think Mezzy really makes him feel comfortable.
I need the full podcast ASAP. Dude has a lot of important things to say.

Much love man! Reading your story alone is crazy. The fact you're here still is something to be admired, much love man!
I genuinely just said a prayer for you. Not being funny bc I do it. On a daily. Pick up a book and read. Any book. A hobby,stay focused on the what will be,and not what was. Im so sorry for all your loss. Ive lost a lot as well. My daddy at 6. Messed up sight to see. There are ppl you can talk to,places to go as well. All in all talk to God. He never fails. Take your time. Walk your TRUTH. Stay genuine. Stay humble. Sending love your way.
First of all, I am sorry for your loss. I know this may sound cold at first, but you don't need anything to live FOR. You just need to LIVE, one day at a time. I wish I was able to understand at your age that you don't need to be in the rush to become something. You just need to be the best you can be today. In time you may find that you DO have something positive to offer the world. You just need to be patient, humble, and eager to keep learning until you know what it is. In the meantime, avoid any action and any person that is self-destructive. I wish you PEACE AND BLESSINGS on your journey.

2:16 - There is more to talk about than just criminal activity. Gang members can be honest about the hurt you said they go through. They can be open about the mental and emotional struggles they deal with. That type of realness may even help people to better understand why they act the way they do, and more people might be able to empathise with them instead of just seeing _anyone who even looks like them_ as 'thugs' who were 'born evil'. 🖤 👶🏿
It’s not part of the culture to be that vulnerable. But whoever does that and gets popular from it can def change that

All facts savage! Well said.
I'm so tired of these rappers saying there rapping about what they see, how it is, or where they came from. They don't frame it in a manner of this what I used to do or seen. They don't put it in the form of a story 99 percent of the time. You have songs and rappers that do that, but for the most part it's in the context of the present and I will do what I'm rapping about. They say that's all they see and all they know, but they traveling the world and constantly on there phones and internet. I guess they didn't see or hear about Ahmad Aubrey, the white boy in Buffalo that shot up the grocery store, the non-sense Herschel Walker talking, poverty in black countries that some of them have traveled to, etc.... I guess they don't have an imagination. Lupe from the hood and made a song about riding in a robot traversing the hood. Ghostface made a song about famous figures in nursery rhymes, but portrayed them as individuals in the projects. Pac made a song about shooting it out with the police, but it was clearly a story being told as if it was a short story in a book. Next time you see a gangster rapper or street rapper. Walk up to him and tell him he's an actor or don't live what he rap about. See how that goes. They only claim that when they defending this B.S. or when the FEDS come
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏!
FACTS
It is hard to feel sympathy for someone that past if you don't know their story or the reason behind it. We feel sympathy for most rappers cause they come from where most are. Rappers are our role models. Every rapper always tell you believe in your dreams it's possible. It's the gang shit that takes their life and sometimes the lifestyle they start living with the money they earned.
Lol you shouldn’t need a backstory to feel sorry for someone dying. Death is death no matter who it is. No one deserves to be murdered. You gotta be some type of crazy if you need they story just to feel a way about them dying.
Feeling sorry and sympathy are to different things you can feel sorry for any death but do you show sympathy or empathy or any other feeling to every death?? I don't cry everytime I hear someone died. But I do cry if I know that person or was close to them. That's what I was referring to.
