Lupe Fiasco has once again decided to vent on some of his frustrations with violence in the world. He previously spoke out on violence at a show in Maryland, but this time the conscious rapper took to Twitter.
Lupe sent out a whole bunch of tweets about violence in hip-hop lyrics. He started out, "Q: Does violence in music promote/cause/support/influence violence in the world and society? A: Of course it does," before explaining how violent music makes it "ok" to be violent. He went on to quote Dr. Dre in Eminem's "Guilty Conscious"-- "How the hell you gonna tell this man not 2 be violent?, Cuz he dont need to go the same route that I did." He asks rappers to take responsibility and own up to their acts.
