What does Hiphop say about the "third instinct?"
C.S. Lewis refers to the natural instincts we have when a difficult situation arises. In addition, he talks about the third instint, which he refers to as the "Moral Law." How does the different messages and images of hiphop deal with this third instinct?

Hip-Hop does not really "deal" with the Third Instinct, unless it deals with someone that WE love or care about-- and if we're upset with them, not even then. If mostly deals with the 2nd instinct of self-preservation and keeping -yourself- out of harm.
Well, this is very hard for me to answer. The third instinct says in broad meaning that we are to help anyone in trouble. Hiphop does not include the third instinct at all from my point of view. In associating with anyone else, hiphop (my point of view) says to stay on top of your game, to not show weakness, but to represent.
well,wat i think about the question is that hip hop don't teach you to use the third instinct.because hip hop basically tells you to do what you think is cool with others or make you popular.the third instinct tells you to do whats right and hip hop dont send that message.what hip hop says is to do the opposite.
i dont knbow.iguedss that it says mind your own business.
WELL TO ME I BASICALLY THINK SOMETIMES THAT HIP-HOP IS TEELING US TO GO OUT AND DO HALF THE THINGS N THAT IT IS TRUE THAT IF ITS SOMEONE WE REALLY LIKE OR CLOSE WITH WHAT DO YOU EXPECT SURE WERE GOING TO GO AND HELP THEM BUT AGAIN ON THE OTHER END I SAY YOU SHOULDNT IF THA ONE YOU CLOSE WIT IS IN THE WRONG AND THATS A REASON YOU SHOULD NOT BE DOING IT BUT HIP-HOP SOMETIMES TELL YOU TO DO THE THIRD INSTINCT AND SOMTIMES IT TELLS YOU NOT TO DO IT BUT ITS BEST SOMETIMES TO DO BOTH BECAUSE IF YOUN WANT NOTHING TO HAPPEN TO YOUR CLOSE ONE ''HELP EM'' DONT JUST SIT,BUT ON THE OTHER HAND AS I WAS SAYING BEFORE IF ITS THERE WRONG LET THEM BE IN RESPONSE OR CONTROL OF THAT..DONT INTERFER WITH THAT....
in hip hop i think that the third instict is only used if it is a friend or someone in your group that needs help,but sometimes even if the person is your friend , you might not help them if it isnt "cool
Here's what it says,in the simplest way possible:
