Why is there no conscious rap from the perspective of white suburbia?
Why is there no conscious rap from the perspective of white suburbia?
isn't that the lil bo peep mumble rap type shit
White people aren't socially conscious due to unearned privilege.
>lower class suburbia
>privilege
privilege is a function of economic position, community, and upbringing; skin color is a weak and lazy proxy used by the intellectually lazy and professional victim class

I mean Arcade Fire made 2 albums about suburbia so its been done in other genres
also (You)
It'd be boring. Social issues of white suburbia are covered in nu-metal, pop punk, emo, screamo, metalcore
Closest thing you have to hip hop covering those issues is stuff like Eminem and ICP. I mean what are they supposed to be "conscious" of?
Because suburban people aren't sentient or conscious.
>social issues of white suburbia are covered in a bunch of dead genres
pfft
t. hive dwelling bugman
Conscious hip hop has been a dead genre since NWA dominated the scene
how does this song go again?
Isnt Kendrick Lamar conscious hip hop?
Isnt J Cole?
>Closest thing you have to hip hop covering those issues is stuff like Eminem
You've no idea what the fuck you're talking about.
Ok, you'd make a much better point if you actually proved me wrong by posting examples.....
Idiot
What's with the retarded entitled attitude retards like you have where you demand people provide extremely well thought out, elaborate argumentative posts in response to your shitty baseless statements? Why do you expect people to put in more effort into eganging you than you do? Are you underage?
Pouya raps a lot about working dead end shit jobs and the like
You have no idea what you're talking about.
What about Aesop Rock?
fuckoffretard
I guess he does that
Shit has too many words though

Never heard of Chad Future? One of the few rappers to ever really capture that suburban vibe
>i swear i'm not white!
White people DO have socially conscious music... it's just not usually phrased in the hip hop form. Punk, new wave, indie, etc all are filled with socially conscious acts.
Because when you grow up in the suburbs you find the goal of life is to maintain as little consciousness as possible so all our raps are about doing drugs and ennui.
Theres Rage Against the Machine ft Zack de la GOAT
So someone that lives in a suburb then
Unironically based as shit
Yeah that's pretty weird bro
There is, it's Tyler the Creator.
I live in a forest, suck my dick.
How does this song go again?
That sounds kino but unfortunately doesn’t exist
Everyone who's concious doesn't like rap music
nice
brbr deng
suburbia is a black hole that swallows all and nothing escapes
if i correctly understand the perspective ur talking about, id say rozz does a good job of honestly personifying the experience of lower class american alt-"white trash" culture
this song comes to mind:

I thought this was metalocalypse for a second
try freddie dredd
cause whites are already conscious bro
Darren McGarvey (Loki) for Scottish conscious rap

Because poor whites usually make stuff like Jason Molina if they want to be conscious, and stuff like Arcade Fire if they're wealthy and want to be conscious. Attempting to be intellectual through rap feels gauche as a white dude.
It’s cringe either way , it’s more cringe if your white
This is fucking atrocious
This Canadian label from a decade ago was great.

Check out mcenroe - Disenfranchised and John Smith - Blunderbus
You've never heard of Lil Ugly Mane?

This.
Suburbs are cultural wastelands where bread and circus are maximized, turning the citizens into narcissistic drones incapable of community and culture.
They could discuss how the ruling elites rape their land, air, and pockets.
Fucking love the crucifucks
I estimated your worth today
Because it'd be deemed whack, yo.
