Russell Simmons flip-floping on Subject matter on Rap Lyrics
it was a trip me seeing Russell Simmons on Oprah saying freedom of speech and then saying He wants a End to the B Word, N Word and H Word. I mean you can't change the words or feelings or sentiments over night. personally the music Industry uses the Old Plantation mentality when it comes to Black Artists. the words that are said left and right and green lighted across corperate Boardrooms daily speaks volumes about the Mind-set.Russell Simmons didn't say much of anything. Flip-Flops as do so many other CEO's of labels.i don't have any Problem with Lyrical Content because that is a Freedom we have,but I don't want to hear a Label CEO flip-flopping like he doesn't know what is going on and you can play dumb when you have Profited off what you Push. whatever is considered Offensive started at the Plantations and that Mentality is pushed by these Labels through alot of Black Artists who are associated with Rap Music. not all but quite a few.
