Importance of Music

So the importance of music. Technically speaking in Abrahamic faith religions, music is something you should stay away from, but due to the way the world is orchestrated, we all have to make adjustments. Art is art and depending on circumstances it can be vulgar due to the places where people originate from. Is this an excuse, no it is not, but when one is from an environment where things are nasty and it’s kill or be killed the art will represent that. Sometimes words are made up that are not even words in the dictionary due to the environment. As one progresses in life, one must avoid music because it can lead you the wrong way in life unless in corporate and/or living in a safe environment.

Good Side of Music

There is a good side to music because it can lead you to the right path if used right. Music does bring people together who have different views and always remember humans are humans. Also, music does negate war issues but sometimes the music goes too far, and then from there things are uncontrollable. People start doing things that are said in the music. This is something we see much of. So for example, one promotes a mask. The mask is specifically encouraged to showcase street culture and how difficult people have it. Then someone crazy comes through and does something wrong with the mask. Some may wear the mask for sports. Some may wear the mask to promote Batman. Some may wear the mask to hurt someone. These things we portray become a huge issue as we grow up and are something we should keep tabs on as we progress. For example, if one listens to a rap record saying "I'm going to hurt you", this can influence someone in the future to hurt someone. Artists should have more time to think about their lyrics and help others with what they have to say on a record, as music is supported by millions.

Hip-Hop Takeover

Hip-Hop runs our world. Go on Youtube and the first thing you see is Hip-Hop culture right in your face. Why is that? Hip-Hop is NYC's real culture. If one takes a look at the 80s, many in the USA made money the wrong way which was normal. Many make their money off of filth, which is no good, but the idea of Hip-Hop and why it's so big is because the communities have it the hardest compared to suburbans. This is something that is more of a corporate issue rather than a government issue because things of that nature are tough to stop due to rare alignments. It's something one should stay away from, but in Hip-Hop's favor, things have become more commercial and less violent such as the performance of Kendrick Lamar for the Super Bowl Half Time Show and Drake with Nike Partnerships. Many do think artists are getting lazy, but that's because they have different situations and need to feed their families. It's important that as we move forward, Hip-Hop is only entertainment and should be more focused on spiritual belief. Situations should always become better, not worse. Growth is always necessary.

Corporate Abuse

These days, there is no such thing as corporate abuse, people only abuse people who are not educated. As we move forward, we must educate each other and try to put each other in better situations. The most important thing to do here is to see how to take down project buildings and get these people out of those buildings. Although much safer, this is what we can do to help people grow in life rather than become less. It's easier said than done, and the only way to honestly fix that problem is to create more inflation. People out of the community won't be able to do anything unless they put the guns down and replace them with laptops. That's how it starts. Buy a laptop, go to the library, and get educated. This is what will help the community. Now also something important to keep tabs on is making sure one understands what is going on in the community. Making sure one understands how dangerous project buildings are and how dangerous those situations are before hopping in. If a content creator or a documentarian it's one thing, but if living in those circumstances the situation is killed or be killed and police will most likely avoid it as they have families as well. Hopefully, those situations become more safe but as we progress, one will see more progress naturally as more people make it out of the community. The biggest fear though is people leaving behind people in poverty. People in poverty are always left behind because of their situations. As life does progress, hopefully we see less people in poverty and more people hired and employed doing the right things.
