Lucem Ferre

I gave Thomas another try and watched exposure and here is my response to it.

1. Tons of gangsters go to college. It's called bettering your situation. Look at 2Chainz. Grew up in a ****ed up situation and pulled himself out and put himself through college. He's very open and proud of it. ****ting on gangster rappers for doing that is counterproductive to the message you're trying to send. Maybe because you don't actually give a ****. This isn't about exposure, it's about 'talking up'. That's when you trash people who are doing better than you for attention. You find some reason to belittle them to feed your superiority complex.

2. The media isn't putting out these drug addicts to make drug addicts. They're jumping on the opportunity to make money because this is what's becoming popular.Just as every trend does, the drug addicted soundcloud style comes straight from the underground. It gained popularity because kids relate to it. These rappers aren't industry plants or causers of our culture but rather symptoms. They are a reflection of an epidemic of mental illness and the opiate crises. A lot of them are open about their depression and addiction. Many of them tell their fans not to follow in their foot steps. for somebody who claims to be 'conscious' you fail to recognize or address any of this, instead opting out for a way to talk down on these kids. This isn't about righteousness, it's about self righteousness and feeling holier than though.

3. This whole "I'm so edgy and offensive, watch out, I speak my mind" farce is just a delusional appeal to your ego. Sad reality is that YOU are the one who can't handle other opinions. YOU"RE the one telling people not to speak their opinion of YOU. YOU made a whole song WHINING about other people's opinions of you. He'res a concept you might not truly understand. You're ability and freedom to have opinions will elicit other opinions. This whole act you're putting on is an ironic self defensive mechanism to cover your own inability to accept other points of view. To the sad point where you literally admit to not wanting to have discussions about your opinion and saying that you want people who disagree with you to be silent with out a hint of self awareness to truly realize the irony and hypocrisy of this song. And that's why we think you're ****ing corny. You get lumped into the Hopsin and Hed PE category of people that act preachy and holier than though pretending to be conscious with out a hint of self consciousness.

4. They are not wearing dresses to feminize men. This is the most toxic and sexist piece of bull**** because you ****s imply that women are weak. They're just products of a new nihilistic movement of hip hop inspired by rock stars that came before them. They're challenging cultural stereo types by saying, "hey, I can look like this and still be strong, and still be a man".

Apparently Tom MacDonald is beefing with Violent J from The Insane Clown posse over Nova Rockefeller [Tom MacDonald's girlfriend].

I just heard about it, so it was new to me. Also, I'm getting kind of sick of Tom MacDonald. He has content, but his cadence and the way he raps, it's like he doesn't give a shit.

He has some good messages, and some not so good ones. He's got more talent than I can muster so I'm not going to throw my stones too hard, but after listening to the videos in this thread, I'm good.
