An honest days work pays no where near as much as a life of crime or a quick scam.

What does that have to do with music inspired crime?


Which came first?

Science / Medicine : The Oldest Oldies: Caveman Music : Instruments made of bone or stone have been copied and used to create rhythms believed similar to those of prehistoric times. Researchers increasingly believe music played a major part in bringing humans of that era together.


Caveman Music

Well I havnt yet seen any proof of a legal system in the Caveman period, so it isnt possible for there to be any crime back then either.

So music obviously came first.

Not so obvious. Music sings about things in life. Life happens before music and crime would be another something to sing about.

No I was just wondering. In the UK in the late 80's early 90's we had the Acid House movment which was country wide. The rave scene has always been a big thing in the UK. And it has caused a lot of the crime that happens, again, not all of it but it does contribute.



I remember "the Acid Rock" music......

The thing was in the UK, before the Acid House movement, most pubs and clubs were just full of football violence, guys battering each other because of what football team they supported. Then Acid House came and changed that because of Ecstacy.

But when the illegal parties had an excess of 20,000 people attending, the police did a major crackdown. And this behaviour was country wide.

If you look at British History, you could actually class this as a music revolution.

Are you talking specifically about rap music or all music here?

Generally. Music reflects experiences & events.

There is an entire sub culture within the Black community that will not report crimes to the police. What that means is that we have criminals walking the street right now we know who are guilty. But because of the “code”, we will not report them to the police. The sad trade off is that you have good people who are locked in self-destructive communities

A person who makes use of a "Black carcass" as a means of getting back at WHITE PEOPLE because one of the members of their gang killed this Black person in question - is the same person with a consciousness that forces himself to BE QUIET when there is a streaming series of BLACK CARCASSES that show up like "Strange Fruit" but which are disqualified from a "Hoodie March" because they were murdered by one of their own "gang members".

Though this person in on a constant search for JUSTICE - his actions prove that he doesn't deserve any of it since his own sense of JUSTICE is so selective.

Happens in non-black communities as well. Sadly so.
