Anyone else have a newfound appreciation for Rap/HipHop after taking the red pill?

Rap is essentially what feminists refer to as "toxic masculinity". Toxic masculinity saved my life.

Toxic masculinity is the idea that you as a man will be bullied and shit on if you're a pussy little faggot. It's the idea that to the victor go the spoils, and the spoils include pussy and money. It's an acknowledgement of the inherently unfair nature of life, and that's why people are trying to demonize toxic masculinity. A lot of my good friends are latino and it's the same thing - machismo is so important because it's real, the world will treat you like a bitch boy if you aren't hard, masculine, and strong. Rap is basically saying "reality does suck, and here's what winners and losers actually look like in this fucked up world." Which sounds a lot like our sales pitch.

Rap / HH is has a lot of poppy weak shit, but most of the west coast shit is free of bullshit.

In terms of RP, you haven't even broken into RP rap music until you sat your ass down with some OG bay area rap, or classic LA shit. Too Short & E-40 for life.

Ice Cube's I Ain't Tha 1 is the ultimate anti-beta bucks song. I still play that shit and crack up, it's a perfect crystallization of the mentality you need to have.

Young dudes today are decent, but rap has gone way too mainstream to ever really have RP artists like in the past. You're never going to get a verse like this again:

*Well if Kurupt gave a fuck about a bitch I'd always be broke

I'd never have no motherfucking endo to smoke

I gets loc'ed and loony

Bitch you can't do me

Do we look like BBD, you hoochie groupie

I have no love for hoes

That's something that I learned in tha Pound

So how the fuck am I supposed

To pay this ho just to lay this ho

I know the pussy's mine

I'mma fuck a couple more times

And then I'm through with it

There's nothing else to do with it

Pass it to the homie, now you hit it

Pass it to the homie, now you hit it

Cause she ain't nothing but a bitch to me

And y'all know that bitches ain't shit to me

I gives a fuck

Why don't y'all pay attention

Approach her with a different proposition

I'm Kurupt ho

You'll never be my only one, trick ass bitch*

I fuck with some of these Future / Young Thug types, and I think Kendrick is RP in his own way, even if he's turning into a friendly, safe SJW type that Obama bumps. But the real shit - the HH that actually captures how women really behave and what you need to do to "win"... all we have left is gems of the past.
