Only one that matters

Kinda dark but still inspirational I think; dope song regardless

Not sure if these are really inspirational, but they have been to me at one point or another.

Really enjoy this.



Deeper, but one of my favorite rap songs with a pretty strong message.

More uplifting than inspirational, maybe, but still nice

wrote a paper on TLC/sexism and misogyny in 90s rap music last semester and now I cannot stop listening to them.



look at their clothes! baggy and big like a guy's clothing, while most female artists were wearing skimpy outfits. they also wore packs of condoms on their clothes (you can see it on left eye's headband and glasses in the video) to speak about safe sex/woman's sexual agency

Yooo i would love to read this!

Me & wife can show them not to make the same mistakes you know that we did
I hope they acknowledge the knowledge cuz yeah, they 'gon need it
Cuz when my parents tried to tell me, I just wouldn't receive it
Couldn't believe it, 'til I saw with my own pupils
Felt bad when I learned that their advice was truly useful
But fuck it, only made us as human beings more mutual
Even though over time, my punishments they grew more crucial
Should use the word brutal

(honestly, the entirety of college dropout. hard to pick one song)

i made a comment on reddit about Blue Scholars three years ago and yesterday a dude replied recommending this album/song.

don't know about 'inspirational' but this always makes me want to get up and do something.

nas - halftime

Dela ft Naledge- it is what it is

Not really a rap song, but a song from a rapper and definitely inspirational

oh wait a minute this is MY THREAD
