not sure what this topic is meant to fall under lol, but i just read an article on how the uprising of 67 is another example of black culture being dismissed / discredited in pop culture. i had no idea 67 had such deep origins in gun violence
insight on the 67 phenomenon

Isn't 67 just a signature from a basketball player?

An article on the WSJ (https://www.wsj.com/lifestyle/six-seven-meme-teens-math-teachers-42764bcb) says, while 6-7 is in that song, it does not have a fixed meaning according to Skrilla, the rapper. Therefore, it has no origins in gun violence. You may just be trying to find meaning that isn't there.

well, i dont think my claim isnt unsubstantiated, and the article i linked does delve into skrilla's use of the word aswell as somebody else. but ofc, not everything is 100% correct or incorrect. everyone has the right to their own interpretation :D
