      That's what makes America great? Thing that majority of countries worldwide have? What
      I honestly think that the reason US has been going diwnhill in almost every metric economically and socially is exactly that - Americans are being brainwashed from the crib that their country is perfect and no other country can compare, while US ranks like 20-30 in most rankings comparing standards of living, healthcare, education and even freedom charts, but nobody does anything about it because why would anyone speak up if their country is perfect?

      yeah so i said it back when it happened. And i will say it now. NWA forced the musical standards down for rap. Hip Hop & R & B. This is not my opinion it is a historical FACT. Rap,hip-hop and R & B does not have to follow the same musical standards as like.Rock,Country, ect, ect, Because rap artiest are not clever enough to write a song with out Violence, swearing, or threaten other people. They can not live up to the same musical standards as the rest of the Music Industry. Like. Alternative, Rock, Country,ect, ect. Like i said this is not my opinion these are FACTS you can look up. I think it is sad Black people had years on years to master the rap scene. Then a white boy comes along & snatches that $hit. And owns rap like he is a rap god. Yet that white boy gets no props from the black community. Even though he revolutionized rap. Long live Eminem. If any one can make a rap song and live to country, rock, Alternative and other musical standards. It will be Eminem that will do it. Like a said already. The black community is not clever enough or they would of did it already. But i guess rock, Country,ect,ect have to follow those standards because that is white privilege.

Dude was respected to the max all over LA county, hands down, from the beginning, and to this day his lyrics give us the chills and impacted many people's lives growing up in LA.

Furthermore when MLK was alive A&P grocery store met with him to give black people thousands of jobs across America.

    I remember listening to Brenda had a baby and then listening to shook ones hip hop was so diverse we truly had variety not an algorithm. I was with the east then i heard "all eyes on me" double CD. i was like why they beefin that whole album was epically dope. I was always a fan of all sides of the map. The industry definitely made us to choose to sale records.

    Great for not being intimidated since the FBI is used to intimidating.

    This reminds me of the FBI foolishness regarding the 1963 song by the Kingsmen, Louie Louie. " The FBI spent so much time (2 years) and resources on an investigation which was comical and went nowhere because the song was nonsense. It turned out to be a major embarrassment for the FBI.
