The Game is right, but its not so much other rappers fault of not wanting to be on that track. Todays hip hop artists, especially in New York are just like regular peeps with wrap sheets - always lookin' out for themselves and trying to stay away from the cops. So doing a song dissin' the cops isn't going to help them any more but attract unwanted attention. I think thats why most of them stayed away, because every rapper these days already have some kind of file on them and they're being watch by the NYPD Hip hop cops. It's the system that has been set up, and it never used to be like that back the days. The only peeps rappers are scared of, is someone who could put them behind bars for a long time...so you can't blame them so much Game! But Game should be honored for stepping up regardless, that on its own is doing a service to hip hop. It's like this; If you're a rapper and you rap about cars, bling bling, clubs and whips - you'll be safe! But once you battle the system - you're vulnerable!

Racial profiling still occurs everyday to everyday people. Stereotypes take 1,000 blacks and mexicans off the streets every hour in America. Civil Rights leadership is dead, not hip hop. Conscience rap is a sleeping giant... KRS-1 didn't wanna get on the Sean Bell memorial track? Police brutality, corrupt enforcement of the law, and laws written to alienate a fraction of the society... these are the issues of our generations. Not dreads, j's, white tees, jewelry, rims, and sponsorships and endorsement deals. September better see some real change or I'm killing hip hop my damn self. 100

I agree with Game 100%. Most these rappers dont give a fuck about anything but themselves. Cant even stand up for their own community. I feel Games pain.....hip hop has changed so much....thats why Nas is right when he sys hip hop is dead, cuz it aint what it used to be.
