Hip Hop: Beyond Beats & Rhymes - Part 4 of 6

HIP-HOP: BEYOND BEATS AND RHYMES is a riveting documentary that examines representations of gender roles in hip-hop and rap music through the lens of filmmaker Byron Hurt, a former college quarterback turned activist. Conceived as a loving critique from a self-proclaimed hip-hop head, Hurt examines issues of masculinity, sexism, violence and homophobia in todays hip-hop culture.

One sure sign of homosexuality in hip hop is the degredation of women. This the darkest before the storm. It's where the homosexual thug hides before he makes the full shift. If he's bragging about how many women he's had foregoing making a real connection AND degrading her and expoiting her then yes, it's a sign of homosexuality.

@GrindTimeMoments u forgot to mention how 2 women also do not have the ability to procreate, when you speak on gays speak on all gays not just gay men, 2 women cannot procreate either, i say that just in case of the double standard of gay women opposed to gay men, but as far as gayness goes they are ppl just like we are so we shud respect them all the same
