Lupe Fiasco Says Hip-Hop Is Partly To Blame For Derrion Albert Killing
In a recent interview on Chicago radio station, WCGI, rapper, Lupe Fiasco said that Hip Hop should take some of the blame for the recent beating death of Chicago student, Derrion Albert.
“Hip-Hop has to take some fault for that. Just in the fact that the amount of violence and the amount of negativity that’s in Hip-Hop and the music, it attributes to so much that goes on, negatively, in the hood.”
Lupe Fiasco also criticized radio stations for not promoting positive Hip-Hop and commended Chicago rap artists like Rhymefest and Twista for addressing the Derrion Albert situation.
