Unity

Cultural pride is subtle. 

It manifests itself in cultural advantages. 

Those cultural advantages are mechanical.

Those mechanical advantages are social.

Even though you have elders passing down traditions, the weight of social structure is on us. Our contributions will make the future's culture. Our opinions and choices are very relevant to our worth. Value yourself.

Creator Status

A while back, technology over-powered intelligence. This led to an elevated status for certain intellectual rappers that we would like to call "creator status". While RapIndie may be the fastest way to spread "creator status", there are some concerns.

1. Are they as friendly to other cultures or as interested in the music from them, as they seem to want in return?

2. Do the rappers focused on the street NEED that elevated status if they are merely interacting within their own culture?

3. Maybe a few "creator status" artists are enough to keep people's minds open to rapper's creative potential; because in culture a lot of people are not living up to their ethnicity's hype.

Travis Scott - Utopia (R.I. Review)

Travis Scott is a rapper/singer from Houston, Texas. Utopia is his first album since the Astroworld controversy and as a result there was a lot of pressure to really blow audiences away. Utopia is very similar to his previous releases, but the songs are very polished and showcase his sound at its most consistent. For some reason, the beats have a very dark feel while the lyrics have positive meanings. This album is much higher quality than the other rappers of 2023, and culturally it definitely fulfills a need.
