Yeah I've seen this narrative you're pushing before. But it's not true. It's not the illuminati music execs holding the black community down. If you're from a poor neighborhood and you rap about your life, chances are it's gonna involve some drugs and crime. And there are a bunch of more intellectual/woke black rappers who try to spit a positive message and so on but they almost never make it especially big. Kendrick might be an exception? The music suits can't control what becomes popular, so you can't blame it on them. Rappers will rap about what they see way before they're on a huge label and "controlled".
