Gangsta Rap Invented by the Government

April 13th, 2008 by Quan Tranh

According to Alicia Keys, in an interview with Blender Magazine,

‘Gangsta rap’ was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. ‘Gangsta rap’ didn’t exist.”

After doing about 30 seconds of research (because this topic deserves so much work) I have come to the conclusion that she must be right. After looking into who the major playa’s of gangsta rap are in the early days we can see that there is some evidence to support Keys’ opinion. ICE-T is considered one of the most well known pioneers of gangsta rap. It would make sense that he was a Fed since we see him every week carrying a NYPD badge on Law & Order. Way to go Keys! You made this connection way before I ever thought about asking the question.
