These are the lyrics for that song:
Was this the "Dream?"
My theory about the entertainment industry is that it's always been owned by white men and is still owned by white men. It is to the larger financial and political advantage of this historically white establishment to promote a criminal, irresponsible, misogynist image of black men and to pass that off as being the pinnacle of possible achievement for black people. Sure, let the thugs have some money and some expensive status symbols; that is the easiest way to prevent those who look up to them from finishing school, and from seeking or even understanding the jobs and roles which could lead to their gaining traction in business, government, medicine, science, academia, and everything else.
The entertainment industry is more conservative than the Republican Party.
