In a fiery exchange that has set the Houston hip-hop community ablaze, former NBA player Stephen Jackson has launched a scathing critique against Urban Politicians TV and Cultfigga over their debate surrounding the legacies of DJ Screw and Lil Keke. Jackson, a prominent voice in the culture, asserted that without Keke, there would be no Houston or Screw, igniting backlash from local platforms who argue that his comments misrepresent the deep-rooted history of the Houston rap scene.
In a passionate response, Urban Politicians TV slammed Jackson for being “loud and wrong,” accusing him of spreading misinformation about the contributions of various artists within the Screwed Up Click. The discourse quickly escalated as both sides exchanged barbs, with Jackson refusing to name the platforms he criticized, further intensifying the feud.

Urban Politicians TV defended its independence and credibility, emphasizing the importance of recognizing the collaborative nature of Houston’s music scene.
As tensions rise, both Jackson and the critics are digging in, with the debate highlighting the complexities of hip-hop legacy in Houston.
