Ever get caught in a storm and it makes you stop and think? That happened to me, Bobby Frost, and it sparked a conversation with my co-hosts that we delve into on the show, touching on everything from the weather to the culture shift in the music industry. I'm talking about how we need to pay more attention to what's happening around us and less on things like Carly Rae Jepsen.
In the heart of this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on street code and its role in rap culture. Getting real about discernment, judgement, and the essentiality of doing your research. We discuss the pitfalls of being an opportunist and the pressure it brings. Delving into the community’s perspective on snitching, we leave no stone unturned, and trust me, you don’t want to miss out on this.
Wrapping up, we open a frank dialogue on violence's impact in urban communities. Talking about the tough choices one must make when it comes to family and friends who commit acts of violence. Plus, we explore how the ever-changing landscape of the rap game, shaped by social media, impacts street code and loyalty. We're navigating these challenging topics based on our experiences, serving you with some food for thought. So, don’t miss out on this candid conversation!
