I find it funny that rappers often forget that they're bourgeois. Will throw in lyrics about "capitalism le bad", whilst talking about their businesses/wealth, though tbf they're usually in a very unique position due to the nature of the rap industry, which also tends to explain the nonsensical politics they almost all hold. Most obvious examples, Peggy, and Tyler, but also Kendrick, and, well… Kanye…
And then you have things like Tupac doing readings of The Grapes of Wrath.

anon the amount of hip hop/ rap MV that are just "look at my wealth loser" just disproves your whole statement, even HUMBLE by kendrick is about that success
>>14866I think Kanye might be a little further to the right
Kendrick Lamar doesn't claim to be anti-capitalist though. His lyrics just say vague moralist lib stuff about race and gangsterism. It's alright, though, definitely on the more sympathetic side.
