Is Hip-Hop Hurting the Black Community or Telling Its Truth?

Does hip-hop reflect the struggles of the Black community—or does it reinforce them? In this unapologetic episode of On The Contrary, the conversation gets deep, emotional, and real as we unpack the impact of hip-hop on Black relationships, families, and identity.

We dive into the hard questions:

• Is hip-hop destroying the Black household or just exposing it?
• How does music influence how Black men treat Black women—and vice versa?
• Are absent fathers the real root issue, or is it something deeper?
• Can love survive in a culture shaped by lyrics glorifying money, power, and pain?

This isn’t just about music. This is about accountability, healing, and breaking cycles. If you're ready for a raw, unfiltered look at culture, community, and truth—press play.
