HIP-HOP music is a “real” representation of our culture, meaning Artist Sing or rap about real life scenarios. America just cannot relate because most have been raised with silver spoons in there mouths, and have no idea what goes on in the hood. THEY SHOULD GO TO ONE ONE DAY. I think they would get the message. We undermine our value when we guard it like it’s our lifeline. That’s not the only thing we’re competent at, but when we flaunt it and brag about it— to the point where creativity is compromised for a quick cash-out — we give America the impression that rap music is all we have left. Just notice, that America don't say jack when we buy Stocks, bonds, basketbal teams and stakes in Nascar. Were does it end?
