Louaista: Why record labels want your favorite rappers dead

“It’s no secret that in recent years – more and more rappers are dying, especially young ones with tons of hype and potential. This video may be considered a ‘conspiracy’ – but it touches on a very deep topic that a lot of people are uncomfortable discussing. Jim Jones, a hip-hop vet, claimed that rappers have the most difficult job. This is because recently, it’s become harder than ever for them to stay alive. Rappers like PNB Rock, Takeoff, XXXTentacion, Young Dolph, have all passed as a result of gun violence. Where as rappers like Mac Miller, Juice WRLD, and Lil Peep – had passed from substance abuse. What’s weird is tons of rappers who passed were signed to “Empire Records” which os a very strange detail.” – Louaista
