12927650, Topics that would be game-changers if artists tackled them.

Beyonce has the chops to make some legit classic grown music.
I suspect she's never really struggled tho. Would never wish
any harm on the queen , but a trip to India or somewhere where
the impact of poverty is undeniable would give her inspiration
to take her vocal craft to another level I think.

D'angelo might've missed his opportunity to make the quintessential
GOAT black druggie album. I'm glad he's healthier now tho.

Jamiroquai made a great song with "manifest destiny". An album with
the theme of race/inequality and a heavy 70's funk vibe would be awesome.

Last but not least... an explicit feminist record from... Prince?

What say ya'll? List other pairings below.

12927652, they would still all be "bitches" and "hoes" all through it tho

uplifting verses talmbout "bitches keep ya head high" and "hoes is strong bitches" and shit like that.

"Where was the peace when we were getting shot? Where's the peace when we were getting laid out?
Where is the peace when we are in the back of ambulances? Where is the peace then?
They don't want to call for peace then.
12927655, you know which line i hate most from Dre?

its not even the bitches and ho shit....i guess you get desensitized to it after a while

but on next episode he says

get my drank on, and my smoke on
and go home wid, sumpn ta poke on

THAT shit always makes me cringe way worse than anything, like really?, you have just reduced a whole gender to *sumpn ta poke on*

maybe it aint that deep, but it has always bugged me
12927660, ^ That would be a game changer for a lot of rappers.
