The Secret Meeting that Changed Rap

[Flow]

While an intriguing read the facts are against this article.

First of all the highest point in history of black prisoners and prisoners in general came in the early 1990's dropping off at an all time high in '95....however this had been rapidly increasing without faulter from 1985, hitting its top point at the 90's where he describes this meeting came into place, and then since has dropped steadily....

So if there plan was real, it would take a least a year to get it in motion, by which point it was on the high of its own and from that point dropped....

Plus the violent image portrayed by people like tu pac could easily be argued as the reasoning behind the drop in arrests on young blacks... tu pac highlighted the racial intent of police and government and law overall at that time, which put pressure on those regulating forces.

ALSO

I quote - I remember about 25 to 30 people being there, most of them familiar faces. (ok so by most lets say half... that's 12-15 faces familiar....)
I also quote - Among the attendees was a small group of unfamiliar faces

So we can fairly assume it was closer to 15 faces that were familiar.

I quote next - A few people refused to sign and walked out
A few...so lets say 5 - that leaves 10 familiar faces....

I quote - Quickly after the meeting began, one of my industry colleagues (who shall remain nameless like everyone else) thanked us for attending.That is one of the familiar faces.... so we have 9 more familiar faces...

THIS IS THE KEY BIT - SO FAR WE ARE AT AROUND 9 FAMILIAR FACES

They separated us from the crowd AND all four of us were escorted outside

So theres 5 familiar faces left, 4 who left the building.... but he then says he doesn't know the names of the 4 that left the building....meaning there are still around 9 familiar faces left inside that building.....- he says he only saw one person from this point onwards and they just stared at each other....

How would he going to events work etc and no doubt knowing a good few names of "familiar" faces never speak to anyone ever again....

come on....

this article annoyed me in the end....

First: I do not believe in a rap illuminati.

Second: what is described is simply not that illegal.

Third: any attempt at making money in a capitalist system is inherently good for that system, moral or immoral so long as it is legal
