Transcript
- 0:00We got a question for our American mamma. Dear mama, are rappers becoming
- 0:03the new conservatives? Well, let's ask our American mama. Mama, mama,
- 0:19and joining us now our American mama. Terry Netterville, the rapper fifty
- 0:24cent, has been criticizing California. He's basically saying, the last one out
- 0:28to just lock the door, then California is dead, forget about it.
- 0:31And part of what he's complaining about has been the smashing grab robberies. And
- 0:36there was a robbery in Nordstrom. They stole oh my gosh, thousands,
- 0:41three hundred, three hundred thousand dollars worth it. It's insane. You're right,
- 0:46because the initial estimates were one hundred and forty thousand and then went back,
- 0:49Oh no, it's more like three hundred thousand dollars and fifty cents.
- 0:54Point is, if you don't enforce the laws, you've just got chaos.
- 0:58That's not that's not how you can live. He's he's a rapper, one
- 1:03of the biggest rappers on the world right, and he's sounding like a conservative.
- 1:07You know, it's so funny because these guys, they lived on the
- 1:11streets, they lived it, you know, yes, for sure, and
- 1:15you have them. They grew up in such a way they don't give a
- 1:19flying flip what anybody thinks. They didn't care when they put them music out
- 1:25about you know everything in all the words, all the stuff, you know,
- 1:27even the anti you know, police stuff. They don't give a flying
- 1:32flip, which is actually something that's you. You kind of you can't help,
- 1:37but kind of respond to that and look up to that in a way
- 1:40like if you can be your authentic self, speak your authentic truth without fear
- 1:45of being canceled or offending people, it's such a freedom. There's such a
- 1:49freedom in that. And so, you know, he was he talks about
- 1:53the zero bill policy that they have in La, you know, Disattorney John
- 1:59McKinney. He said, the Sheriff's department will no longer detain people for crimes
- 2:01such as theft, shoplifting, drug use, vandalism, battery, and then
- 2:07a whole host of other non serious, non violent crimes. So those are
- 2:10now things that's basically legal to do because they're not gonna gave the community permission
- 2:15is what you did. So you have people like fifty Cents that is coming
- 2:20out saying all right, I'm gonna I'm gonna see you and I'm gonna raise
- 2:24you. Okay, I see what she said. Now, this is what
- 2:27I'm gonna say. This is he said. LA's done for He's I told
- 2:30you, La is absolutely done for now. This is also interesting in a
- 2:34financial sense because fifty Cent is currently in the process of trying to build a
- 2:38movie studio, a film production studio of his own right. He wants to
- 2:43control the means of production for videos, for shorts, for online stuff.
- 2:49He's not looking in Hollywood. He has no intention of building this studio in
- 2:53Hollywood. He's actually looking at building it in Louisiana, Red state Louisiana.
- 3:00Says so much. That says so much, you know. He's also been
- 3:02criticized by different outlets, and he said that one of them was they reported
- 3:09on what he tweeted just recently, and he said, I understand why deadline
- 3:15is reporting my opinion. I'm a big deal, but why they write I
- 3:19had to run in with the law. I'm a born again Christian. Because
- 3:22when they talked about him, they talked about his previous run ins with the
- 3:24law, and that is what the media does. They spin it around they're
- 3:30they're able to do the headlines, and they're able to piece together an article
- 3:34and it's kind of slanted and you can tell which side their own by the
- 3:38way. Like so instead of just saying, you know, look, Curtis
- 3:42Jackson just spoke out against thievery thievery right, they had to say, interesting,
- 3:47this guy who knows about the run ins with the law, who went
- 3:51to jail, like, they had to color him in such a light that
- 3:53he was a felon, he was a thief. And he saying, look,
- 3:57I'm a born again Christian. I'm doing right, and I am a
- 4:00new creation. That's right. Go back to what I did before I became
- 4:02a born again Christian, but I'm a new creation. That's the beautiful thing
- 4:05about being in America. You can reinvent yourself. You you you learn,
- 4:12you know better than you do better. So he grew up in the projects
- 4:15and he saw what he saw. He knew that the way to get up
- 4:18is to be in, you know, on this side of the street or
- 4:21this gang or whatever. Right, that's kind of what they had. That's
- 4:25all they had, Vie, that's how that's all. That's all they knew.
- 4:28And rapping made him famous. Yes, you've mentioned one other thing there.
- 4:31He brought up that he was a born again Christian, and now he's
- 4:34sounding like a conservative. One of the other most famous rappers who sounds like
- 4:40a conservative sometimes is Kanye West. Yes, who also became born again after
- 4:46he reached fame. And in the same token, you see once again,
- 4:50how the media, how celebrities, people on the left, they try to
- 4:56not only demonize Kanye, but they try to make him look like he's crazy,
- 5:00like he's insane, if he's lost his mind, some odd things.
- 5:03But if you look at okay, but if you look at his entire story,
- 5:08if you really read what he says, if you listen to the lyrics
- 5:11of his raps, and a lot of these are freestyle, he is so
- 5:15about God. He just free. He freestyles about God in a way that
- 5:18will touch your heart. And you know that this man has been touched by
- 5:21the spirit and he is trying so hard to get it out there. He's
- 5:25using the trumpet of his mouth to get it out there. Is there anything
- 5:29more dangerous to the Democrat Party than if black rappers start voting Republican? I
- 5:35think, well, I pray that they do. I pray that because they'll
- 5:40see they've seen a difference. And this is another thing that's interesting. We've
- 5:43talked about this before. You see more and more Black Americans coming on to
- 5:46the podcast kind of doing these shows, and they're being elevated not just by
- 5:50the black community, but by the white community. We all it's resonating what
- 5:55they're saying and they're hearing, seeing and now they're talking about it, and
- 5:59I think in we're all going to be on the same side of this.
