I don't hear too much of them. And how conscious can you be if you're a gangster.

Very? People in fucked up situations that have to rely on gangs for protection can still be extremely conscious. Also, since when do we assume all gangster rappers are suddenly actually doing the things in their songs? Most of the gangster rappers are the ones on the sidelines that took on the persona of those in their environment to tell their trials and tribulations in melodic and interesting ways. Cause we're all short attentioned spanned weirdos looking for stuff that sounds cool in our ears.

You seem to want to just tuck these people away, making so that they have absolutely zero chance to be noticed and helped. It's the main reason privileged people even know this shit is going on. I know I personally talk to others about how fucked up worshipping money over helping these environments is a lot. And if Im doing it, it means it might also reach people like me who are a lil more ambitious and might do more than just spread the world. Or maybe someone spreading the world will reach someone more ambitious and proactive. You're basically attempting to cut off a life line for an already struggling and left behind class just cause you don't understand it and are privileged enough to have time to worry about getting offended.
