Not Carl’s lists. Copied from Rapgenius.com, a music company site that was shut down in 2014 when the company changed its name to Genius and began recording other music genres. Credit is always a nice thing to give.
Most, if not all, of the list is pretty old. Tupac was murdered in 1996. NWA is long gone and some of its members are now totally mainstream. I will never condone the murder of police officers but I certainly understand the rage, fear and frustration these rappers are talking about.
Rap today focuses more on the social issues than murder as a solution to those issues. Like most music, rap grows over time or dies out.
