    So, all the rappers mentioned have made songs about killing people. They’re surprised when they write, “fiction,” then a crime matching their fiction happens near them and they’re implicated?

    I’m not saying the system isn’t racist, but maybe don’t write songs about much of a killer you are if you don’t want to be suspected of being a killer when someone gets killed near you.

      There was a heavy metal artist, who kinda had his face painted like those KISS people. He had a song where he weirdly described a death that happened at Cecile Hotel (a Netflix documentary exists about this).

      Now this face-painted monster was his entire internet personality. And he had to come with his real face and apologize to everyone saying he was in no way connected to the crime!

      The system isn’t racist, if anything it’s discriminating against “the only people who can be racist”
