If you really want to see some bullshit, look up an early, almost proto-punk band called Death (not to be confused with the metal band of the same name). Black dudes making music about ACTUAL issues, such as politicians not caring about the public, class wealth disparity, etc...yet they get almost no respect or attention outside of a small circle of punk fans. Instead we get glorified thug culture that only serves to further damage the black community because that drivel is useful to the powers that be.

Great band. Years ahead of their time.
