To me these people are just making excuses to profit from terrible music that degrades our people. It may not have started with hip-hop, but hip hop is making it so that our degradation continues and continues. Why do that? Each generation should try to be better than the previous generations. Hip Hop is not allowing for that to happen. Furthermore, I think that hip hop is making it very difficult for black men and women to respect one another. Stop it with the excuses already!!!

@ViolentEncounter If by "new shit" you are referring to new mainstream hip-hop, then I agree. There is, however, a very healthy underground filled with rappers who have real messages and real talent.

@JGH8sDaDebunkerz dont blame the genre. blame the asshole who sells his music. the one who keeps writing about selling shit about killing people juss cuz they wear differnet colors, old school hip hop was the art, the new shit are the nails in the coffin, too many ignorant people being swept up in hip hop culture, alot of whites and blacks thinking they have to live up to the music

@Psalms11817 fact is that they were not born then, they are born now when deep hatred is replaced with deep ignorance, deep hatred is to complicated for people nowadays.
in todays society, words itself dont matter, its the context in which they are.
I wish the young blacks who have no problem with the word Nigger or degrading women of their race grew up a little earlier in the deep south during 1950-1960 & earlier then they would understand the deep Hate, Pain and Degrading that went with that word. Maybe If they had seen the hate that hung black men from a tree just for being black..Check out the history of that word. So many men and women died or went through hell for your rights to be human, why do you keep wanting to go backards?

If Lupe Fiasco had the kind of profile he does now when this took place, he would have been the perfect rapper to testify for this. All of his messages are either positive or highlighting the ills of our culture.
