LetHIMSortEmOuti feel like drakes stomach problems and lil nas x face issue kinda occured naturally though
idk, Drake drinks a lot of mixed sugary drinks, I haven’t ever had stomach pains that woulda kept me out of work for months. and Lil Nas X was because of nerve inflammation that can come from an infection or heightened stress, both don’t sound natural lmfao

insertcoolnamehereBut by doing that you lead to interactions like 1st page. Black artists have been dealing with health problems and d*** usage as a way to cope since the 50s.
Nobody talks about how industry heads like Berry Gordy are likely to never see heaven because of what he did to Florence of the Supremes.
Being put in a position where you are being exploited 24/7 is a mentally draining process where anyone would run to the bottle or the pills or anything to cope. Usually at the expense of their health. That’s why a LOT of your fav musical entertainers never retire, they usually just die younger than you expected.
Tl;dr: everything Big Chap said at the Grammies can literally be applied to this thread
yea but all that does is expand the conversation past the subjects I would like to focus on by minimizing the characters I presented into a box so that the conversation can then be shifted away from the point by focusing on a factor that really doesn’t matter to the conversation at hand
I want to understand why rappers seem to fall easier to this way of life. a lot of that, like the article I presented which did a massive in depth a***ysis of the matter, was trying to do, that I then just presented as a topic of discussion
all niggas did was enter the thread with prejudice for the people named then tell me that I’m being prejudice for pointing out an obvious systemic oppression that exists and has done a number on the community that is just hard to ignore because we are afraid to say “yes, there’s a lot of black people who won’t go to hospital because they either have the fear due to the system they have been forced to live in, lack the education to understand they need to regularly visit due to the same oppressive system, or try to live a debilitated lifestyle which coupled with the lack of awareness of oneself and health, leads into “junkie” territory without even realizing you’re a junkie because it’s just a welcome way of life as they system has dissented so far into this being the new normal DESPITE all the pain and suffering we can all clearly see it’s causing. so through that, over usage and drowning one’s emotions in d**** becomes the new normal”
like I’m not gonna be surprised when lung cancer becomes prevalent cause now we chain smoke worse than cigarette smokers cause of everything mentioned above and the fact that “weed isn’t a d***/weed isn’t bad” is so accepted
