Interesting views 
some highlights:
The majority [of rappers] are a bunch Grinning coons who push materialism, drug use, effeminacy, weakness and the very worst kind of so-called values upon our people…hatred of self and kind...genocide!
On Tupac: "On the one hand, he preached black empowerment and unity, on the other hand he promoted
thuglife…which gave power to white people and the jigaboos!"
Rappers promote the intellectual death of black people!
The only thing that has caused Black people to survive the attempted genocide from whites was our sense of community and today's rappers [unlike rappers in the past] undermine that effort!...

This guy has a couple valid points in his little analysis of rap music, but I think that he is a little misguided. Rap is a highlight of a sub-culture that do exist in the communities that we are living in

How ironic!!!
This guy couldn't even hide his visceral homophobia even if he tried.
I love Hip Hop. Well, NY Hip Hop mostly. by the way, NY hip hop to me is a genre of Hip Hop, not necessarily from NY.
Anyway, I believe there's as much good and positive Hip Hop being produced as there is negative Hip Hop. Unfortunately, things are not well balanced. And, y'all know why.
if it wasn't for a few laws, White kids in America would be playing video games in which KKK members were shown lynching Black folks -- so long as it sells.
People, commercial Hip Hop as we know it is a million dollar industry. Hip Hop's got lobbyists on Capitol Hill too -- commercial Hip Hop that is. |

TiZepeng,
Thanks for introducing this guy here. I think he has some valid points on many subjects.
Can we invite him on the let's talk section?
