I was there when Rap started. It started in Queens, New York in the early to mid 80s. I ate hot dogs in the park while listening to Kool G Rap being played on speakers, and my uncle mixing records on his turntables.
Believe me, Rap music was not invented by the CIA. My uncle knows rappers, and they don't have any ties to people in the CIA.
Very funny post.
Y'all meet me at the Wooley Swamp later. We'll
take old Lucius's money and we'll feed him to the alligators." They found the
old man out in the back with a shovel in his hand, thirteen rusty mason jars was
just dug up out of the sand. And they all went crazy and they beat the old man,
and they picked him up off of the ground. Threw him in the swamp and stood there
and laughed as the black water sucked him down

Ever notice that when a rapper wants to kill someone subliminally they say thier catch phrase.... for instance 50 cent would have someone call you up and say g.g.g... unit or jay-z would say hov and ja rule might say it's murderrrr.. once that phrase is said it raps the subconscious and leaves the person open to a subliminal killing and other subliminal influences.

maybe not so much as the CIA or other nefarious org. invented rap, but perhaps the more violent rap (gang glorification) was allowed and encourage to be played on MTV and into the mainstream .

That's the lie the CIA put out for their agent. He was adopted by dentists. Same as their agent Eminem being a Detroit boy when he was born and raised in Kansas City. But its hard to sell rap to the kids if the guy singing it had a nanny when growing up. Nope, have to keep telling them that the only way to make it in life is through drugs and gangs. Ignore Bill Cosby and focus on MIchael Vick. Ignore MLK and focus on Snoop Dogg.

50 Cent's parents were not dentists, his mother was killed when he was about 12 and he was raised by his grandmother. And by the way, he definitely had it hard as a kid, have you been to Southside Jamaica Queens, NY lately? I agree with parts of your point, but did you make up those details about 50 cent to enhance your point?

Rap did not start in the early 80's. It started in the Bronx NY in 1973.
Every hip hop head knows this.
In the mid 80's This was debated in rap battles between Boogie Down Productions and MC Shan. Those were history making rap songs that will live on forever. Hip Hop is from The BX.
As far as gangster rap goes, you can trace its roots to The Beastie Boys ( white rap group) Ice T, and Cool G Rap. NWA personified the genre with "Straight Outta Compton" which was heavily sampled from the Beastie Boys. The city of Compton had gangs waaaaaaaaaaaay before gangster rap even came about.
But yes I agree with you, this is a very funny post.
In fact I find it to be straight up whack.

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard!!! They are simply citing their name or their crew or company!!! GGG Unit, is his crew and clothing line, Hov is a nickname Jay uses short for J- Hova (like God of the rap game, and Ja Rule says Murder because his crew is Murda Inc.
Please, this is really off the topic in the first place but it is necessary for me to respond by simply telling you that you ARE WAY TOO WRONG!

Why would someone choose the name "G-Unit" "J-hova" or "Murder Inc" ?
G-Unit come from the Illuminati "G" which means several things, none of which has to do with gorillas
"Hova" might by Hoover
"Murder Incorporated" was the name of Al Capone's gang
