RapIndie is just entertainment, but if it's influencing more than that, it needs to be accountable. The futility of challenging cultural vanity to get paid or accepted is the only reason for the influx of "drill" music.
Part of that futility is the predictable repetition of human nature to mistreat one another. RapIndie searches for music and artists that interrupt the narrative of supremacy, but at best self-interest makes stubborn people perceive them as "formidable" rather than "the same".
It's very important to use platforms to improve the world, but it's also important not to give up on it. Privilege and holiness are a great combination, but there is a difference. Many people conform when their needs are not met. Others believe lifestyle is their salvation instead of grace. Jesus lived amongst the sinners and they felt loved and welcomed by Him.
