There are many theories about what has caused the growing violence in Hip Hop. Some have blamed the culture for atrocities that are unrelated to the entertainment industry, but there are also conversations happening within as rappers weigh in on what they believe is the root cause of division. Several artists have launched initiatives or hosted events that are created to help curtail gun violence within marginalized communities, and many rappers hope that speaking openly about this topic will help usher in changes in the future.
Recently, Rooga talked about certain beliefs about diss tracks having caused an increase in violence within Hip Hop. We previously reported on radio hosts and stations refusing to play diss tracks following the ongoing deaths of several rappers.
