CONTROVERSIAL RAP LYRICS 2



CONTROVERSIAL RAP LYRICS 2:

it’s time for part 2 of my Controversial Rap Lyrics series!

just like part 1, for lyrics to be considered controversial they have to have recieved some backlash from either the general public OR people in higher places, and resulted in either some form of censorship or a statement from the artist responding to the controversy. So, which lyrics made it to the list? Well, this is CDTVProductions, and watch the video to find out!

  1. Hey CDTV, thanks for the vid! I've been watching your content for the past couple years now & have really enjoyed this series so far. Your comments made me want to talk about something real quick,

    My mom's side of the family is Chinese & Japanese (my dad's is White), & for the past couple years I've gotten into a lot of Korean music, including Korean hip-hop. The reason I bring this up is because one of the earliest guys in that scene, Tiger JK, is Korean-American (his father was one of the first Billboard correspondents in Korea & had some connections to the music industry there) & grew up in LA, where, as a teen, he witnessed the LA riots, which he said inspired him to use hip-hop to create a bridge between the two communities. He wound up forming a group called Drunken Tiger & debuting in Korea in 1999. At that point, hip-hop was in its infancy; having only come to the country a decade or so earlier. People hadn't figured out how to rhyme multiple syllables in Korean in a structured way yet, so a lot of what passed for "hip-hop" was more like rapid-fire speaking over a beat, with English syllables & hip-hop stereotypes thrown in to sound cool. Drunken Tiger changed this with their debut, which was heavily influenced by West Coast hip-hop & primarily used English. JK ended up founding a crew that contained some of the biggest & most influential artists from that period, but looking back at those years, though, a lot of the focus was on aping Western trends, & in some ways, they were no exception. Some of the members of Tiger JK's crew (namely Roscoe Umali, who pops up as a guest on a number of Drunken Tiger songs) threw around the n-word & brags about sex & money, maybe in an effort to feel more authentic & real. This disappeared as Drunken Tiger thinned out (it became a solo act in 2005), & Tiger JK himself has gone on to have collabs with prominent US legends like Rakim, & the K-hip-hop scene as a whole has managed to find its own identity, but every once in a while, you'll get people rapping lines like "my skin is yellow but my soul is black" or something like that, & a lot of the community still fights over who is authentic, just like in US hip-hop. People adopting mainstream styles or writing songs about love used to get dunked on by a specific subset of the underground, who would call them sell-outs, etc. Just something I thought was interesting.

    I also totally agree with you about the Lil' Pump lyric. It sort of reminds me of the voice work from the original Shadow Warrior – if I thought Pump was serious, I'd totally get being uncomfortable with it (though, personally, I'd probably still laugh at it), but, with who is saying it & how the line is delivered, it just comes off as so stupid & over the top that I chuckle whenever I hear it.

  2. Y’all ever noticed Lil Darkie is never on here, despite almost all of his songs having some sort of controversial lyric, i guess you really can’t cancel someone who wants to be canceled 😂

  3. It's weird how we're so desensitized as a People. That there is now a genre for music like … … Well not this actual music but def that type of genre.

  4. In defense for lil pump Eminem In bad meets evil says “this is what’s happens when bad meets evil and we hit trees til we look like Vietnamese people” and I promise you chinamac ain’t gonna check that one at all cause Eminem is more respected and dude might be scared cause Eminem has money to drop on someone if he really wanted to

  5. i don't know if this counts but the song "Let's Get It Started" by the Black Eyed Peas is a classic example of a hip-hop song which was controversial from the start. the uncensored version (which came out AFTER the censored version) literally has the r slur in the name and lyrics.

    it was removed from streaming a few months ago after nearly two decades of being up
