DL Hughley Responds to Special Ed Saying NWA Brought Destruction to Hip Hop (Part 18) 

This is a lie. All selling rap music did not become gangsta rap after NWA.

@@LurnWell@kenn.alexander is spittin fax. Once gangsta rap got its 2nd wind by way of Dre's The Chronic, the then positive impact of Kid n Play (House Party), Heavy D, Salt n Pepa and Native Tongues (tribe, De La, Jungle Bros, Black Sheep, LONS) all waned. Once The South and Lil Wayne took over from The West Coast hand-off, hip-hop got full ignorant as is now....

@@DominiqueMarsell Lies. More people purchased Big Willie Style by Will Smith than all Eyez on Me by 2pac. The RIAA counts double albums twice. Even MC hammer sold well "after" NWA. I remember Kid n' Play, but there was a time when Gangsta rap was the minority. It's a separate conversation from saying Gangsta rap started selling, and saying all rap became gangsta rap, just because that's all you hear. Too Short outsold nearly all of them back then as well. Check the stats. I understand the level of violence and the influence of gangs, but we have to record history correctly. The balance and shift happened a lot later. Special ED comes from the bragging era, and many people hated HipHop back then as well. Rappers blaming other artists is ridiculous.

Unfortunately, you are correct. And many of us make insane excuses and pass the blame for self-destructive behavior.

I'm mixed with black and white, but growing up I also always wondered how/why that got popular and adopted when it came from such a bad place. Still boggles me

Only 44 likes for your comment, and that's disgusting. Blacks in America have finally, willingly become everything that the disgusting racists have said about us for centuries. These filthy traitors embrace that word only to show that they are on the side of the devil. Just look at who they ALWAYS call their opps.

That's anecdotal the people around me were using it like Richard Pryor album it was literally every where in the 70's pre rap

@@kerryholifieldjr6395 And if you remember Richard Pryor’s albums, you also remember that there’s no difference between the “er” spelling and the ni66a spelling because Richard’s album used the hard “er”, and blacks just pronounce words the way they want to. It means the same thing no matter who’s slinging it. In Detroit today, people will be called that word right before the bullets hit. 85% of black Americans are black traitors.

You don’t think it’s a bit of both?

He's FROM L.A. so it makes sense that he'll act blind like it had NO EFFECT whatsoever on those teens during that time... it was ALL in the black shows in the early 90s... touching on gang violence and drugs

I was around when NWA first came out as well. The violence wasn't because of gangs, it was drugs. Look at the murders that was going on in New York early and mid 80's before NWA was even thought of.

Even a few years ago the treatment of black people in america has always been shocking, have you even heard the lyrics?, "fuck the police coming straght from the underground a young n**** got it bad cos he brown" kinda implies some kind of racial injustice but lets not concentrate on the reason the song exsists lets blame the reporter.

NOPE!!!

NWA had nothing to do with prison culture tho

Ed was right and wrong... DL is right and wrong. The real question is why did gang music become so popular. We dnt own record labels and especially back then there was way more positive black power type rappers. Why did the labels push gang music?

@@Tuelz... Because rap is a business. NWA was going double platinum without radio, video & promo money vs. rappers that had full promo tours, street teams, radio, multiple video single roll outs & couldn't sell gold. Spending hundreds of thousands to introduce an artist & the label never recoup's vs. NWA who ship gold the first week without any promo money, just print the records & print the money. Record companies are not built on emotions, they are built on selling records.

Exactly. I grew up middle class and attended university with middle class blacks/Latinos who pretended to be gangsters because they thought it was cool due the music from NWA and the likes. The same can be said about Tupac. He did not grow up gangster but bought into that lifestyle when he realized he sell records by doing so. It cost him his life. Moreover social consciousness records and artists were purposely not promoted as much even though they were selling records successfully. That proves that Zionist owners of the record companies had an agenda to undermine, exploit and ruin black culture.

People ARE society.

Both things can be true at the same time. preposition 13 caused and terrible terrible effect and nwa romance of gang banging. when nwa made those records I don’t think they realize how big their voices were and the affect it had.

I've always blamed individuals and not society.

Great point.

​@@electrixfyingipod6206 The problem is that most people only focus on the blame society part.

50 cent said in the movie Get Rich Or Die Tryin, "after Tupac, everybody wanted to be a gangster rapper"

it's not up to the individual it's up to everyone to take accountability for their actions (with great power comes great responsibility)

@@user-xi8qz8qw6e it's up to the individual to separate what is entertainment from fiction! Movies and music go hand and hand SMDH!!!!!

@@stickman1373 you been living in this white mans world too long dude. It's called influence (the most powerful force) smart guy and this is why a lot of people are obese, smoke cigarettes, weed, drink alcohol, pop pills, etc. The media plays a huge role in peoples lives and the research shows it. I care nothing about your opinion as you don't make sense so get statistics and/or facts to back your shit up then talk, you sound dumb ass hell right now SMDH

Both of them are right

so instead we blame music? lol

DL making valid points.

He surprised me with that answer. Surely he's smarter than that

@@demond1818he is not i

@ChiraqPullupexactly did they cause all of these mass school shootings?

​@CaliDiva82 they don't graduate enmass, have huge illiteracy rates, and are anti-intellectual. How could they if they barely attend school? Their mass shootings are in their own neighborhoods among family and friends.

HE DIDN'T SAY NOTHING LIKE THAT SO BE A VICTIM ON YOUR OWN!!!

That was a good one

They be hilarious 😂 but a deflection

Not its not a defelction bruh yall jist want us to be the fall guy ​@@bouddahlovee

That might prove games are a influence because Americans are fat

Hilarious 😂😂😂

And that's what Vlad is saying.

@@user-qx1bn9hu3c Older and smarter aint where the music hits.....its the young and the dumb

Just ask yourself, what has music influenced you personally to do? If you can answer this question honestly, then you could have a point. Otherwise you're just following the bs.

You're blaming someone or something else because you're a fool?

@@tedbaker114 Music artists influenced a lot in my life. When Dipset was poppin' , I was rocking a bandana just like Juelz. Kanye, Kid Cudi, and Pharrell influenced fashion to me at one point. Now that I'm older, I literally do my own thing. You're closed minded if you think music or what's in the media isn't influential, especially to younger people

We’ll never know how much of an influence music & movies truly had on people who joined gangs or became violent criminals, unless some study asks every person who turned to that life. And even then, you can’t count on them to be honest because of how quickly people will blame anything else other than taking responsibility their own personal decisions.

Run DMC was great

Expand your thinking. Who signs the rappers? Who controls the content? Special E is short sighted and narrow. That’s why it’s important to know history. Why was Tupac a target and is more popular today? Why wasn’t Biggie targeted by the police and constantly harassed? Who renamed Reality Rap, Gangster Rap? Name the NWA member who’s in prison for being a gangster or engaging in Gangster activities? If you didn’t know, Cube has never been arrested for anything!!!

Can you really Say Wu-Tang didn't do the same thing? Crean got some hard core lyrics and that video had nothing but gangsters in it. Just cuz they wasn't gang bangers it wasn't the same type of content?

Facts

One thing I think he did get wrong though is the use of the word “parody”. It’s more likely that Cube and them felt they were just _pandering to_ the neighborhood before it blew up, not _parodying_ the hood...

Yes ! Finally !

That's why? Ice cube/ O'Shea Jackson won't have a N.W.A! Reunion. It's beyond they personal beef/ business! 😢😢😮😮😢😮 That's what I believe, think bout it. Niggaz With Attitude! Rest In Heaven Easy 😎

Exactly... ED Said HIP HOP... how the heck they get on this tangit... Mf always flipping words around

@@rodneyharris5606 It's like he's intentionally trying to play dumb.

Bruh stop the nonsense people been smokimg weed before the chronic

Bruh he's right. Weed has been around forever but when Dre came out with the Chronic, he made it cool for suburban country kids to smoke it. It didn't cause the problem but it was definitely gasoline on the fire. @@thelastdon9000

Bangin in Little Rock is a good example

​​@@ceeIocAccording to DL those gangs came up with the names Bloods & Crips themselves before hearing of west coast gangster rap, and created that way of dressing as well.

That's not true at all. I grew up in Southwest Georgia and it wasn't until NWA hit that you started to see Bloods and Crips in those small southern towns. I get what DL is trying to say but to sit here and pretend NWA had nothing to do with what happened is insane. @@GooniesNeverSayDie1980

We all know why

In the early 80s because of crack the crime skyrocketed in every major city in America not just L.A. but also Chicago, Detroit, Miami, NYC, D.C. etc etc

Thank you. The crack epidemic in mostly poor black hoods was the main problem, not a bunch rappers. If all rappers did all songs like "The Message" "Self Destruction", the problems would have still been there just like it is today in poverty stricken black hoods. Gangs, drug dealing and violence happened to Italian, Irish and other communities when they were on the bottom and poor in the early 20th century.

"You can say the same about jazz"?? So, jazz had an effect on g@ng v!olence?? By that warped logic, throw in classical, country etc.,. What a doofus.

You spell AmeriKKKa like how I do. These white folks wanna see us destroy each other. They control the rap game. They choose what Black folks get to listen to.

It wasn't no different in the 90's bruh. Look at who all the most popular rappers were. Pac's first couple albums were conscious rap but he didn't start getting the recognition until he got with deathrow and started all that thug shit.

But whose fault is that? You're moving like Black people own all these major record labels to begin with lol

@@MR12AMAZING that is correct 💯

@@MR12AMAZING but in the 90's conscious rappers were at an ALL TIME HIGH!!!!!!!! And for you to 3ven mention 2pac you sound like your from the suburbs or a mainstream fan! People didn't even consider him Great in the 90's that's the younger generation! When he was alive NO ONE called him 5he GOAT or he got all 5hks recognition that he receives now. And that's ONLY because he talked that stupid shit like getting high, making babies and violence! I rock with J Hova and Guys hate me for it but he's about the $ as am I so we agree on lots of things. And look how their careers went one is a Billionaire the other I say RIH and he's not forgotten

Not statistically crime n murder rates werr higher in the 70s

How did it amplify it when statistically crime has generally gone down since it’s release?

@@1990maman Did you look at the graph? Homicide was going down for two years in a row and shot up the same year Straight Outta Compton came out. It then continued to go up the next year, and the next year, and the next year, and the next year. Why has crime gone down? Multiple factors, including mass incarnation.

@@tinfoilkufis Straight out of Compton? Huh? 😂 What graph is this?

@@jay07261986no the hell they weren’t

Facts.

Exactly 💯💯💯💯

Indeed

Exactly! He is either pretending like he does not understand psychology and the subconscious mind or he is ignorant about the profound effect of music and the messages with it.

Where about the same age and what you and I can both acknowledge the fact that when NWA came out they were just trying to be competitive with some of the very few hardcore artists coming out of respective cities whether it be New York philadelphia, etcetera. But that competitive entertainment became problematic when people started becoming influenced by the message and picking up on the imagery. Things got out of control. I don't think it was nwa's intention to bring destruction with their music, it just became destructive when it was unchecked.

They knew the OG from LA that came through the drug trade claiming blood or crip before they knew colors and nwa tho

That because y'all was slow

prop 13 had a indirect affect on ppl and the youth in ways that we couldn't understand in our youth, and now it should make sense because we understand the importance of programs for the youth and how important it can be!!! YOUR point is accurate!!

I ran into 2 of Eazy E's bodyguards in NYC during the New Music Seminar. One of Eazy E's bodyguards told, me there are some places in LA, NWA couldn't do live shows. Don't wrong I was a fan, of their music. Also Gangsta Rap give us love him or hate, Suge Knight...Lastly when was the last time, there was violence at a Jazz 🎺 concert?

Imitated, not immolated. I hate to be that guy, but I HAD to be that guy. Duty called.

Rap started out as party chants & boasts, then people wanted to express more of the realism of the streets & talk about social issues -- we are way past the "bitches & hoes" era yet people still can't mention rap without referring to "bitches & hoes".....Have you listened to any rap lately?

​@@Tarantulisimorap is still stuck in its infancy it is trash to the soul.

@@Tarantulisimo We're still in that era my brother. Tf do you think rappers like Future and DaBaby rap about?

🧢

DL just makes excuses for everything and everybody never shows any accountability

@@315giantsand he's nowhere NEAR as intelligent as HE thinks he is

Great Commentary by DL 100%

I just hope you two were either born or of age to witness the transformation of hip hop to more gangsta (street) genre of music. Often times, too many people try to engage in this conversation with no real base of reference. Or, just not real hip hop fans. If you ask or provide hip hop artists dating back to the early ‘80s most are clueless.

@@dewaynecarlton432 yet still, gang culture is limited to black communities although the whites consumed it the most. stop the nonsense

@@dewaynecarlton432 I'm 50 and I'm from LA. I personally witnessed what Prop 13 along with crack did to my city. LA was a very different city pre-Prop. 13 and crack. Those two things are the primary reason why the increase in gang violence happened. NWA simply told people what was going on in the city. Plus, we had more Hip-Hop artist coming from LA during that time that were putting out something other than "gangsta rap."

@@chaunceydavis8856 If you are referring to three strikes law in California, I’m not sure you citing the correct law (Prop 13). But, I was born and raised in the Deep South, so there were no such law. The Federal laws against crack cocaine came a little later. Yes, I remember World Class Wrecking Crew, Ice T, King Tee, Egyptian Lover, Rodney O. & Joe Cooley, etc. I can go on and on prior to N.W.A., but to Special Ed’s point it was still N.W.A. that ushered in this top of music that opened the “Genie out of the Box”.

No they didn't bruh most of these cities already had gangs before nwa bruh even new York had gangs so no special is definitely wromg.

​@@thelastdon9000I'm convinced people hate the west coast bro

​@@thelastdon9000nyc aint small town America like, learn to comprehend

​@@PJones-ke9koppl in suburbs and small towns that weren't use to violence and hood life had kids trying to emulate it, how hard is that to understand. No different than future having everybody wanting to pop molly,xans, percs, and sip lean. Same with how drill music having kids wanting opps and dissing the dead

@@showmestatefinest5412 bruh I didn't even say nyc at all bruh you need to learn how to comprehend at all bruh and it's been proven that gangs was going out to cities and starting a branch of hoods bruh NWA music is never mentioned because they never promoted that culture at all they just promoted west coast street culture

Yes, they were. No one is arguing that... However, Crips and Bloods were hardly known outside of their cities. No one knew about the violence in compton and etx excpet the peoplw who lived there. NWA shined a BIG light on that gang banging lifestyle. Now Everyone around the world knew what crips and bloods were....and instead of trying to really stop the gang stuff, More kids and adults became enamored with the lifestyle and rebellious nature of gangsters and thus alot of youngsters wanted to BE a gangster or have that mentality. Before NWA came out, NO ONE outside of Compton, Watts, SC, etc knew about that shit. And its been downhill for our community since then.

They said it on Sanford & Son, The Jeffersons, and Good Times

Richard Pryor had a 1970s comedy album called "That N*gger's Crazy." Yet Nas couldn't name his album the N-word back in '08.

This is not about the saying N*gga, listen to Vlad’s question to DL Hughley.

I know, right???!!!

I was surprised by DL's answer. But maybe because he's from LA and grew up around gangs and grew up listening to NWA, he see's things differently than Special Ed.

@hustlanair true, he may not like the idea. LA played a big role in the destruction of Black and Brown communities across the nation, which makes his answer a little biased.

@@KaliefMartin yeah he's definitely a lil biased on this subject. I remember him saying on a earlier vlad interview that at one time in his life he wanted to be a blood but fortunately he was saved by doing comedy.

This is true if you're from California you will think this ridiculous because the sound track to crips and bloods is funk music. Not rap. By nwa's time you're talking about second and third generation. Plus crime is down from the 70's yes it was popping in certain places in the 90's and this is what you hear coming out the music.

not sure about the part that he doesnt want us to take responsibility for our own errors? i think he was being very specific about how he saw the issue being, right or wrong?

Say it louder

What you're saying is you don't like us. The soundtrack of Crips and bloods is funk music. Not nwa by that time it was too late. Without pointing any fingers crime is an economic problem.

@@kerryholifieldjr6395 No im saying OUR community needs to stop blaming shit on everything else and take accountability for what WE are doin out here on these streets. I know its not ALL our actions. I know the Govt is against us, But WE need acknowledge OUR own self made problems. Crime is committed BY CHOICE... the Economy doesnt MAKE you go out and take the life of your own brother... foh talkin bout crime is an economic problem, LOL You prove my point exactly....blaming something else and not taking accountability for YOUR OWN CHOICE. Explain that one to God when your judgment day comes that you committed a crime because of the enconomy, LOL

@@Akumaten1 you're putting words in his mouth. Crime is economic. Poor people commit crimes if you are well of and have opportunities you don't. The kids in Malibu were listening to nwa as well. Where white people are poor they commit crimes. You can pretend this is not a reality but it's is the things people will do to make sure they have food shelter and water to take care of their "own self" like you said has very little boundaries.

@@kerryholifieldjr6395 Crime is NOT an economic problem.... It is a CHOICE. Crime has been around before there was such a thing as an economy. Explain to God that you robbed an innocent human(who works to feed his family) to feed YOUR starving family and see how far you go with that, Lol It wont be an good enough excuse for God, and thus, its not a good enough excuse for me. If you are poor, Get a Job....Theres always jobs available. Even $7.25 an hour is better than $0 an hour.... If you have no Job and thus cant afford to take care of yourself, one would have to ask why tf you got kids?? Again, CHOICES...

It's a Stupid analogy. There is a difference between an abstract game and real life emulation. That's some basic distinction that anyone should be able to make.

@@jonz23m bruhhh on God 😂😂💯 its hilarious watchin doofuses promote each other

*starts lawsuit against Atari*

​@@jonz23mThank you. That had to be the WORST comparison I've ever heard.

BTW you agreeing with that statement speaks volume

Sad but true

You not from Chicago 😂

Did the WHOLE industry turn into gangstas? Or did a handful or artists, because that’s what the labels were buying and signing?

You still had G-rap Rakim and Big Daddy Kane. Rakim said "I used to be a stick up kid/ I used to roll up/ this is a hold up/ ain't nutin funny stop smiling/ cuz still don't nutin move but the money. Big Daddy Kane used to rap about being a Pimp. KRS-One had a tech on his album cover. How is it different?

​@@JoseMartinez-bh1ngYou can't leave out the next part of the verse cause it changes the context. Rakim main bread and butter was hiphop not solely Gangsta rap. Krs one was recreated a photo of Malcom X on that cover and his music was not solely Gangsta either. Kane was a smooth operator indeed he did talk pimp but it was his only subject matter. N.W.A main thibg was gang life in L.A, the controversy, the market the interest, the world wanted reality rap the impact was massive. It shift the hiphop from dance and accessibility too up in your face reality. If your not a hiphop head like average person not gone know you the emcees you mention are even in the 90s. Say N.W.A you get ppl singing the lyrics.

Special Ed couldn't sell records no more, that's why he is jealous. Case closed

@@user-hg8ul8ym7j actually special Ed made good money outside of hiphop. Being his family already had a business he created his own with the money made also when I lived in Europe 80s and 90s artist been tour over there for over decade.

How were gangs ever a great thing? I never heard no bs like that in my life.

You also have to take into account the introduction of crack in the 80s and the fact it was introduced by the Reagan Administration which is still destroying families today.

All facts.

You actually agree with DL

Facts 💯🔥

LMFAO with all due respect, you sound a little ignorant on some of your points. Hip-Hop, rap, & BET are 3 seperate things. Hip-hop is the entire culture which includes rap as one of many forms of expression. Gangsta rap was ONE sub-genre of rap -- there are & were numerous styles of rap both before & after the gangsta rap phenomenon. Yes, rap started out as mostly party chants & centered around bragging/boasting (it definitely wasn't all about knowledge) -- but people in the street were looking for & wanting to express something more conscious, aware, & real. Socially relevant rap started to come in & the emcees atarted to talk about issues in the ghetto, & in some ways gave birth to gangsta rap, because that's how it was going down specifically in LA & in the hoods. Yes indeed it did start to glamourize the streets & sexualized behavior, but many of the early raps were about getting women & sexual prowess. Not sure why you tossed BET in there, cuz BET was around way before gangsta rap, & started out showing black sitcom reruns along with soul & R&B videos & news. Of course, as hip-hop exploded, they started to show more rap videos (as did MTV), but to say they were the detriment of young impressionable black youth is freaking ridiculous. BET was & is groundbreaking & uplifted culture

Okay then what did music influence you to do?

Women need to sit down and be quiet. Go and comment on a cooking show, this is serious convo and you don’t have the capacity to participate

That's definitely it was always I hip hop bruh

You gotta point. There was gangster rappers on the east coast before NWA was out. But I think NWA and LA culture in gereral had a bigger lasting effect on hip hop as a whole and the young generation at that time... It's a reason there's bloods & crips in NY and every medium sized city in between, still to this day.
