Hip Hop, Violence & Guns

Tweet

Stories like this is nothing new but it is getting out of hand. There are certain people who join the industry to make records, music, albums and money to make a living. Those that write lyrics, put it in a studio to go big in life. But there are those that have a dark side and secret that will soon later on be revealed. Rappers like T.I - who had a great reputation and career going for him, a young hip hop star going down hill being charged with heavy gun chargers, carrying illegal fire arms which later police raided his home and confiscated them all. If convicted the young star faces a long time in the jail cell behind bars in a state prison. Another recent story was another rapper by the name of Yung Joc, who was convicted for carrying an illegal firearm in one of his luggages when checked in an airport - later they he said he never knew that the gun was in there and it wasn't his. That's the same excuse every person is going to say so that they don't get caught or get in trouble. I mean why does someone have to go in life carrying guns? Or even weapons just to go make some music and make money? What's the point? I mean yeah it's understandable that certain rappers have had a past history of a ghetto life but why not just have security or bodyguards around you. So sad to remember the days when Tupac and Biggie was around and how that scenario ended up to bloodlust, hatred and then both being murdered. I have to say it is a great thing that the law is putting people like these behind bars because one if these rappers think they are being threatened they should think twice that they are putting their lives at risk of of carrying these guns and spreading more bad seeds to people to make it think it is right to have them later on to find out more people end up getting in trouble or dead.
