It's not about putting the guns down its about loving one another.
Change the culture, these young men listen to their favorite music and emulate what they hear and see.
You're right you know these rappers get a lot of money and they're wealthy people look up to them and want to do what they do the young people are not right in the brains nowadays you can thank video games for that. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!!
Rapper music at the NFL SB halftime.
Facts
you cant change a culture that is glorifying violence
@Ian Stradian! TEACH!!!
Put the guns down?🤔
That’s not what you sing about. 🤔
Maybe it's the culture, and not necessarily the guns 🤔
The guns are never the problem. Its ALWAYS THE PEOPLE.
@@ssj2camaro21 Yeah, its the DNA. I don't know if there is a way to change it. It all came down from Cane and his evilness spread through that Culture and that Race of Peoples.
It’s the culture
@@PoeLemic 🤨🤨you good bro?
You Are Right!
Young dolph had given us a very important lesson. Doesn't matter how good your intentions are, someone will always try to blow out your flame. Keep hustling and stay strong, Scrappy.
He had taken an oath, that's why it happened
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to spill your drink" could save a lot of lives!!
Yes but once angry the control is out the window and black out occurs.
@@bruceyung70 that's not an excuse he is a grown man that should control himself
Rappers not glorifying guns drugs and murder could too.
Or buy him a new drink
Accepting the apology could also save a lot of lives.
Words should not have folks so sensitive.. It's senseless I'm a 45 yr old Parent that loss a Son to gun violence. I celebrate the Birthday he had tommorow. Not saying that for sympathy I'm just sad that this is the direction the young choose to take... Many didn't deserve for there life to be cut short, by someone with no value😥
Theres no such thing as gun violence. Guns don't kill people. People kill people.
The only way you can call it gun violence is if and only if, that person was killed by being hit by the gun itself. Not the bullet.
And sorry as well
A black problem
My condolences to you🙏🏾
People are so weak minded and easily offended nowadays. Social media has F’d peoples minds. You can call me any name there is and even spit on me and I’m not going to kill anyone. I have been jumped and the whole time I was never angry even while defending myself there is never hatred or anger in me. Just doing what I have to.
Consider yourself blessed. Anger and hate isn’t easy to let go.
@George Steinocher amen your wisdom is what I teach my grandsons remain still it will silence the aggressor 🙏
@George Steinocher some people just can't take words, looks, or whatever they're offended at and resorts to violence, harm to others.
Social Media has made people So Angry... It has caused So Much DISCONNECT
@@llamaArdiente People are the problem Social Media just amplified them.
It's not about toning things down . It's about consequence for the crime. We have decreased consequence which equated to increases in violence.
A lot of these people have nothing to lose. I’ve been there. It don’t matter if the consequence is 5 months or 5 decades or 5 lifetimes. This means nothing to people who don’t even want to live anymore
@@alkdjfhgks1919 hating on them because they use their specific talent and become millionaires is not going to help how you feel about black people.
Rappers be like "shoot them up" in their rap lyrics
Rapper gets shot "na man we need to end gun violence"
True but no such thing as gun violence. Its people violence. Guns don't kill people. The person behind the trigger kills people.
@@ssj2camaro21 lmao you gonna try to convince every person in this comment section of that huh? People know what guns are take your bs on somewhere. He didn’t even call for gun reform or say anything anti gun. He said stop shooting people over tennis shoes and spilled drinks. It’s clear you heard your dad say “guns don’t kill people” your whole life and that’s all you know to say on the subject, but it doesn’t apply here.
I love seeing the blessed and gifted using their energy for good like this man and the other rapper that found the 2year old walking the street alone.
Rappers don't do sht good they preach guns drugs and murder and degrading woman.. wake your little mind up
Rapper are worthless.
Scrappy G is definitely one of the good ones, love his message, grateful he's still with us, and he'll still be here for his community, friends and loved ones.
Never heard of him
Good trash
@Jiv Kan not true
@Jiv Kan negative
@Jiv Kan dummy he was trying to take the gun away from the bad guy
😔 Stay out of clubs; I am glad that my son is not “about that life”. 😳 It is no reason to be there… I mean really no reason. I like older folks would say, everything ain’t for you but if you look for it then it will find you!!! 🧐
Rappers degrade woman glorify guns and drugs. Truly a flawed race .
African Americans are the biggest downfall to themselves yet.
So basically u saying a person can’t go out and enjoy their self some people find the clubs as a relief from a stressful week
When Are We gonna Grow Up and Realize that the Clubs are Breeding Grounds for Disaster??? Its 2022; Alcohol and Attitudes Don't Mix....
It's not the clubs it's the people it's not the guns it's the people it's not the world its the ?
@@criticworld874 Its the People....
Scrappy is a hero. Thank you. It could have been worse. You saved lives.
A hero?! Hahahahahahaha
A hero!? Hahahahahahaha
This behavior is all in the music. The culture needs to change. Glad he is okay though.
Rappers rap about how they glorify guns, killing ops and hos. Gets shot and calls for an end to the violence.
not evry single rapper dont be a many of tha smoofys
@@XxThePhantomFreezexX Uhhhh...You speaking Pig Latin, yo?
Lupe was saying this a decade ago....that rap music promotes violence and we need more uplifting and pisitive music...but they told him to dummy down.
Those environments bring trouble. Why r you still hanging out in them, when u have a son that's like 2yrs old
Exactly
Well he's a rapper so......I mean they kinda have to work the clubs
Rappers 🤦
@@bettytunabreath9317 Scrappers! Crappers! Flappers! 🤡🤣🤡
the club is meant to have fun. bc thugs don’t know how to behave means we can never go clubbing??
He needs to call for all the cowardly thugs, the CRIMINALS, to put their guns down. Law abiding citizens need to arm themselves are protect each other.
@@trashbun2 Doesn’t matter if the CRIMINAL who did the shooting passed a background check, they broke the law and are a CRIMINAL now. Everyone has a right to DEFEND themselves, but no one has a right to go shooting innocent individuals. Get it right. There is a difference between a good citizen with a gun versus a bad actor with a gun.
@@trashbun2 erm..he definitely wasnt a white doode...that I know...it was a blk dude trying to do a mass murder...to blk people...
2:01 umm that's exactly what he did tho.. he was talking about the street gun violence when he said we need to put the guns down.. nothing about law abiding citizens shouldn't bear arms
@@trashbun2 Felons don’t have guns?????? What planet are you living on? I know the rapper didn’t do the shooting silly, duh???? You are sure right that background checks can’t predict future behavior, look at all the corrupt cops out there who went through them. You missed the point and the problem. It’s not guns and “people” putting them down. It’s not “labeling” people either. It’s the truth, that CRIMINALS, THUGS, GANGSTERS, ETC, ETC (all the TRASH out there) use guns to perpetrate crimes. These “labels” as you say are not prejudice or racist, they are evil. They come in all nationalities and ethic backgrounds. If you or “people” can’t see this, that is why this problem exists…
@@illegalwaffel6435 Really? Me and you must got ears that work differently. The news story I heard with him speaking didn’t clarify anything. It’s THUG TRASH who beget VIOLENCE and violence begets violence. The demographic of young men are not CRIMINALS. CRIMINALS ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO PULL OUT GUNS AND COMMIT CRIMES, NOT LAW ABIDING CITIZENS TRYING TO HAVE FUN. All these law abiding young men going to have fun at clubs need to start arming themselves and stand up against these criminals because these CRIMINALS are NEVER going to voluntarily just put their guns down, ever!
Wrong. Stay out of the damn clubs period. Party at home with your true friends and family. I’m thankful that you and your friends didn’t get kill. Wishing y’all a quick and full recovery. Prayers for y’all as well.
Did it take for him to get shot for him to start saying put the guns down, or was that something he always rapped about?
These Rappers have stupid songs that sing about violence, rape, shootings, crime, and anger. Well, they should sing about better stuff and have positive songs & changing their Culture.
2022 Rappers and Up and Coming Rappers in the same Club. What could Possibly Go Wrong?
It's sad you can't even help out your own community anymore. These kids are not listening and the parents are not teaching. The only time the parents get involved is when their kid is the one in the street dead and gone. And then they want to show their Instagram and Middle School pictures..
The Communitah was 200 yrs behind other Communitah after BL. Now the Communitah is 400 to 500 yrs behind other Communitahs.
and get paid
Why is it that rappers get shot constantly? This doesn’t happen in the country music scene, Christian rock, or even rock ‘n’ roll.
They love death...check out DRILL MUSIK
Good observation simple reply You Reap what you Sow!!! not to besmirch Scrappy but this genre is inundated with a volatile narrative!!!
I beg to differ there have been a many of whiskey brawls and busted windows in the name of carrie underwood.
Our young men need to break this evil spell that has been thrust upon us. Love yourself and our people. WAKE UP!!!
A rapper speaking out against gun violence is like Biden speaking out against creeping on kids
I've never heard his music. Does he himself rap about things that would uplift his community or does he rap about the typical things that the music industry promotes i.e. gun violence, drugs, promiscuity? Just curious but not curious enough to look it up for myself 🤷🏽♀️
Yeah that’s what I was thinking he might just be a hypocrite.
A rapper shot !!!!! This never happens
It's 💯 the culture. Once that changes, everything else follows. Drugs, money, music, cars, yadda yadda yadda are completely glorified. There's no denying it. Ask someone from the hood what it means to be a man. All the answers are the same and watered down. "I'm gonna keep it 💯", "I have to do what I need to to to feed my family", "it's all about the paper", "if I don't smoke him first, he going to smoke", "working is for suckas".
Change the midset
No, don’t give up your guns..keep shooting ✊🏿
Please put down the guns and make sure you pick up my new album "Shoot a bitc# in the face"
I've never met someone who was trying to be a rapper that wasn't involved in some sort of criminal activity as well. just saying.
How about dont go to the fuckin 'Club' at all. Go to work maybe?
I'm thinking this sort of thing happens far more often after midnight at a club than at 7am at work.
People are getting shot all the time on the freeways, at supermarkets,and banks at all hours of the day or night. A bullet doesn't have a name. Wrong place wrong time.
What makes you think ppl that go to a club don’t have a job you sound stupid as hell… as the other commenter said there are way more crimes outside of the club atmosphere
Now that Scrappy has a mini scrappy, maybe his club days should be through.
I am 55 years old when I was going to clubs when I was in my 20s, they was shooting guns for no reason and shooting over someone getting they shoes stepped on.In southpark
Nothing has changed.
The less you care about stuff, the better you’ll feel. Why do wicked people care so much about crap that has no real meaning? Poor credit score?? Who cares! Step on a man’s shoes?? DEATH PENALTY!!! 🤦🏽♂️ So ignorant!!!
Low Expectations is the 🔑 to Happiness... or whatever that saying is
What in God's name is the matter with young black men killing themselves in rap and gang related issues?? No other group has this problem approaching crisis situation levels.
It's just the culture. As children the ones they look up to were doing it. Lack of father figure. Blaming others.
Attention too bad attention
greatest country in the world, they say...
Non Stop Stab bing, Random Shoo ting, Mass Shoo ting, School Shoo ting, Road Rage Shoo ting, Smash and Grab Loo ting, they've got it all...
Total shythole...😂😂
Yea I’m sure they’ll step right up. Trade their guns for books am I right
Put the thugs in jail and keep ur guns...
"Put the guns down" is the stupidest thing to say! It is the people that lack rationale & emotional discipline who are to blame. By saying "put the guns down", you automatically shut off any meaningful dialog of proper gun safety
violence has permeated their culture and they accepted this will change nothing
We need to do something like a petition to stop violence! Someone start a change org petition.
Scrappy- G should be called Positive G- for staying Positive!
He such a hero my eyes much love too you and ur family 🙏🏼
Maybe he should have been with his family instead of at some stupid night club with stupid people at stupid hours of the night. Hope he recovers and changes his lifestyle
Lebums soldiers!
Stop the violence increase the peace ✌️
Ok Boys-N-The-Hood
😁
You were very brave. You done the right thing to try to save people. I wish more people would step up like that. It would send a message to these dangerous criminals. Enough is enough........? 🤔😢🇺🇸
Good message. I’m gonna check his music out
You need educated men taking care of their kids not being at a club . Lame.
❤💙💜 Love one another! Tame the ego and heal the hurt.
Glad your ok praying for a speedy recovery just terrible
It's safer to play on the freeway than to be a broke rapper 😆
Scrappy G has a powerful message, he is an inspiration and an asset to his community and a good father. God bless him and others like him. We need many more like him all over this country. If there were more we should be able to greatly decrease the violence that I see every day on the news.
Scrappy you asking young men to put the guns down makes you a leader and a hero. Thank you.
So exciting!
😹😆🤣
🙏🙏🙏
🙏🏼✨
🙏🏿
God bless you 🙏
You can’t be in the streets and be a rapper you have to choose 1
Don’t do that
That's true!!!
@@trashbun2 Laugh Laugh. Cough Cough
It’s always the innocent people that have to endure this evil people don’t care about innocent lives Praying for a speedy recovery Thank God your still alive!
Why would anyone be in a club partying at a time like this? We are facing world war three, WTF is wrong with people? not thinking about the future of their children or love ones.
I'm born and raised in houston and might I say I ain't never heard of this dude before..if I put out a mix tape does that make me a rapper too?
And put it on Tic Tok - you too are a star! 😆🙄
Cy-0p 0n 2nd den! realTALK
...then the opps and killas will come looking for ya....😂😂😂..after they spray ya..they might get arrested and released the next day with low bail and a hearing for 2025...and their mama crying how they AINT DIIID NU'NUN....😂😂...if you survived and they meet you at the mall..guess what....you might get a 2nd serving of some hot lead....😁😁
@@CashCowz962 damn Nigga you talk too much
Just rapper things lol
Rapper, the most dangerous job in America.
Stay legally Armed. Protect the 2nd amendment.
I'M GLAD HE MADE IT OUT ALIVE,🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@2:08 Dude you know damn well a lot of people are going to the club to start some sh!t. But some people just like to keep testing the water. 🤔 Meaning if I accidentally bump somebody that looks like me. Well he might shoot me tonight
Scrappy G
Imagine we all woke up and said I’m gone be a good nice person for the rest of my life, that’s it, and really mean it? But I’ll move to another city away from my community and help from a distance.
itll never change.
I’m happy he’s still alive to tell his story.
Glad you lived to speak up!!!!! Praise God!!!
Now he says puts the guns down lmao but I bet he's music provokes nothing but violence
Put the guns down seems like a weird thing for a rapper to say. They only rap about three things guns money and bitches. Don’t you think it’s glorifying the whole gangster lifestyle that makes these fools pick up guns in the first place? How about some accountability? I hope none of his songs and rap lyrics have anything about guns in them otherwise he’s just another hypocrite. You could change the narrative in all of your songs going forward scrappy.
Scrappy, as much as we want to give back to the place we come from it’s not safe. If you have the capability to get up out the hood don’t turn back. Give back to the community in other ways by helping those that wants to be helped.
It's deadly now a days being a rapper pick another profession and stay out of those ratchet @ss clubs it's a haven for killer's that are big mad with the world because their life isn't what they think it should be because of not puttin in the work it's called entitlement, jealousy and Envy those 3 words will get you killed 😡😡🙏🏾🙏🏾
8ball & MJG said it best on their ole renowned track "things we used to do, we cnt do no more."
Who
I stand with the young brother! Put the DAMN GUNZ DOWN!!!
respect to this dude
he just keepin it real
People r not going put guns down they feel impowered by them.
Go to stupid places get stupid outcomes.
When good people start eliminating the parasites this behavior will be greatly reduced.
Many make these incidents a race issue. Wrong parasites exist within all races throughout the world! It is a culture issue in our country. I am white, I have nephews and nieces that are Hispanic, Croatian, Filipino and cousins that are Black. Funny, they are all Christian, patriotic, productive people. It isn’t a race issue.
God bless!
Wait 30+ yrs of glorifying ganglife in the 'culture' is a bad thing?
People don't realize many of these senseless crimes committed by us is part of the curses that it talks about in Due 28 Chapter and many more other chapters about these curses that is on my race. A lot of stem from self hatred of each other and willing to shoot and kill over anything small or big. Prayers for the brother to a fast recovery.
These people.will not listen. PEOPLE try to give back to the community and they get hurt. Sometimes u gota leave the hood because they don't care
Burn it on your way out
Thanks Scappy G you are correct!!!
1 thing I regret is going to a night club during my young days. I had more fun at home with my friends. I need my time back
Bro it's been like that since the 90s and 80s because you decide you want something to change
Christ bless all of our young black male teens and men...Lord, please reach them through Holy Spirit to get back and excel in school and stay away from bad influences, jealously, and crime...
Scrappy G almost had to change his name to Dirt Nap G.
What is wrong with our people? So disturbing, seems like the one's are putting forth a positive effort becomes the victim. Young Rapper keep your head to the Sky!!!!
Don't blame social media, alcohol just blame the people themselves. There's people on social media and drink alcoho like mel but I don't go around fighting or shooting people. I think most people that do this have a problem in the head like an undiagnosed brain tumor.
Stay out them bars and clubs because people can’t handle drinking to well. It has always been the Devils den.
I put my gun down when every body else does 😂
