    Perfect answer. Can try to discredit the messenger but you can't discredit the message on this one.

    How was it a good answer? What other possible answers are there to the question of why rappers tend to glorify guns and gun violence? Because they support the 2nd amendment? The f--- else is literally anyone gonna say to that lol. Ya change the hood, yay. What a visionary!

    Exactly. I mean making songs about it as artists is one thing, but actually doing it is different.
