Comatose Red Ivy – “Eat The Beat (Syllable Freestyle)” exists outside the system of boxes!

In October 2016 the rapper Kid Cudi announced that he had gone into rehab for depression and suicidal urges. His message struck a chord on social media. However, along with Cudi, some of the biggest and most respected rappers have addressed depression and mental health in the past. The list includes Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Logic and J. Cole. All of which is unusual for a genre that’s competitive and fueled by machismo. Combined with the obsessive capitalism of the music business, hip-hop can be an environment where depression, suicidal tendencies or other mental health issues are brushed off as weaknesses. You can’t have any weaknesses when you’re calling yourself a boss. Well, yes you can. Especially now that the vulnerable aspects of these artists music, is what makes them so highly praised.
