Hip-Hop Retardation: The Missing Fatwa of the 90s

  • サマリー

  • In this podcast episode, KOS, The Scientist, delves deeply into the complex and troubling world of the "murder rap economy." He examines the influence of hip-hop, particularly drill rap, on violence and crime, highlighting the alarming trend of rappers not only glorifying violence but also boasting about real murders committed by themselves or their associates. KOS discusses the evolution of hip-hop, contrasting the current state of the genre with its past. He points out that while 90s rap also dealt with themes of violence, current drill rap takes it to a new level, with artists bragging about specific killings and showing disrespect towards the deceased. This phenomenon is seen as a dangerous escalation that desensitizes listeners to violence and contributes to real-world harm. The episode also addresses the role of established artists like Rick Ross, Meek Mill, and Jim Jones, critiquing them for continuing to propagate violent themes despite their age and status. KOS applauds rapper Dee-1 for challenging these norms and calls for greater accountability in the industry. He reflects on the cultural impact of hip-hop, arguing that it has become a dominant force in shaping the values and behaviors of young listeners, particularly in vulnerable communities. The discussion extends to the legal implications of promoting such content, suggesting that record labels could be held legally accountable for the real-life consequences of the music they profit from, similar to how Purdue Pharmaceuticals was held accountable for its role in the opioid crisis. KOS emphasizes the need for a cultural shift, advocating for more questioning and accountability within the hip-hop community. He suggests a multi-pronged approach, including legal action against record labels promoting violent content and a collective effort to change the narrative around hip-hop and violence. This holistic view aims to address not only the symptoms but also the root causes of the issue, seeking a more positive and constructive direction for hip-hop culture.
