Why is it so hard for rappers to stay out of prison?

I agree 100%, I think of all the hip hop, drill is the worst offender. Its literal gangsters winding up other gangs
Yeah . Well I know drill doesn't specifically have to be that variety , but a lot of it is calling out rivals/ops, stating a crime you will do or have done. And acting on it. There are "points" systems for kills and attacks too.
Even seen ones saying they're laughing at <killed member>'s mom crying. Or that they've spat on that dead persons mom. Etc.
Kids have to go tooled up to school. It's a joke.

Some people want it that way, divide and conquer, keep em busy with bashing their heads in, instead of going after the real cause of problems in this world.
Exactly, what I hate is how many people fall for it, every single time.

I don't follow that whole Trap/Drill scene but I do remember Chief Keef years ago, probably the one to bring it to the forefront first. After that it was open season and everyone was involved in the scene, and like you said, it's just back and forth gang shit. They're literally telling everyone what they did through their lyrics. It must be such an easy job for cops and lawyers lol.

@Iron Keys at times I wonder who nowadays are the people that need to do crime? I get how poverty breeds crime, etc. but it's like cosplay nowadays re: thugs
@Fade I always said that the "Black cool" image of a "rapper" back in the day gave way to the idea that rapping was "just talking over a beat" which explains why so many people's reaction to the music initially was "we/I/they don't get it." Couple that with the fact that unlike other genres you never heard a rap artist in an interview discuss their creative process. Re: old school rappers, some back in the day were financially supported by actual criminals but difference was the criminals played the background on some financial "silent partner" shit. Harry-O financing (and naming) Death Row was a good example of this.

Re: @Iron Keys dissing opps you forgot when drill cats be sayin' they are smokin' on (name of dead rival(s) e.g. Tooka pack, etc. and the worst example I've seen was some dumbass Drill rapper literally bangin' his girl on his dead opps grave site.
