Yeah and Brown Sugar by the stones is about slavers and democrat slave owners.

Here's a Stanford article on the subject -

While each of these rappers showcased a unique style, the underlying messages in their work depicted acts of violence, discrimination, and sex in a way that made them appear commonplace and acceptable, when in fact they are not. The nature of gangster rap influenced society in a negative fashion, yet there was nothing that could legally be done to stop this. Today, gangster rap still tends to send negative messages to its listeners, but there are individualized efforts taking place that will help the problem.

The nature and influence of gangster rap have had on society are obvious. People have agreed that is not a good thing, but it also not something we can legally do much about. Ultimately, it is upon us to decide what we surround ourselves with. Education and the support of No Limit Records will help minimize the negative of gangster rap and promote the non-violence campaign.
