Lord Jamar weighed in on the harsh realities facing drill rappers like Kay Flock, who often face lengthy prison sentences that outlast their time in the spotlight. Discussing the current state of hip-hop, Jamar criticized the glorification of crime in rap music, urging young artists to pursue real trades like plumbing or barbering instead of lives that lead to incarceration. He pointed out that many drill rappers who get caught up in the legal system serve time far exceeding the longevity of their music careers. Vlad and Jamar also touched on the challenges rappers face today in releasing music independently, emphasizing how social media can be a tool but also a tough landscape without proper support.
