The War On Hip-Hop

This is pretty much what I was trying to say. The hatred is uncalled for. I mean talking about Public Enemy sure they just came out with a new album. But Flava Flav isn't a gangsta he's a goofy guy doin Miller Lite commericals and sleeping with some gigantic lady. If you don't like the music fine. You don't like FM radio I'm cool with that. But the slander is so unneccasary.
 
K. Let's get clear. I am NOT comparing Kanye to Frank... the comparision is not even there.

Exactly. I am tired of false accusation of racism and everyhing revolving around race on this board. And I'm not letting the people get away with any more. I'm callin you out.
 
I honestly thought about putting together a well argued articulate response to you. But I see there is no use. You are really closed minded and my feelings on radio and music are just that. Yours are something entirely different. You need a lot of help, homie. If the world is that dark of a place for you I don't know how you go on living each day.

There is goodness in ALL people. Even the ones who make hip hop amazingly enough. There's even goodness somewhere in your narrow minded person. I suppose you meanwhile, but honestly I think its time to take your Momma's advice and if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.

And please get off your high horse. There is racist rock artists and EVERY rap artist is not racist. Believe what you would like... hopefully your words on this board dont relate to actions that you carry out in the real world.
 
George Bush Doesnt HATE Black People

Yea, because you really watched that special on TV. His exact quote was "GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE"

If you are going to quote someone, get it right.

Furthermore,

I am a pretty intelligent person. I am a High School graduate AND a College Graduate (Temple University). Guess what?? Hip Hop is my favorite kind of music. For people who seem to think that this genre of music has no class or is for dropouts and people with GED's, that is not the truth. My group of friends LOVE hip hop and rap and we ALL have degrees.

But I still don't understand why the rock fans seem to put hip hop and rap down, but you truly never hear the people who like hip hop and rap put rock down.

Also, WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE? Who cares what you like or dislike?

Oh, and I forgot to mention I am a HUGE rock fan as well.
 
THE FUGEES have NEVER made comments

FACT: Neither Lauryn Hill nor any member of the Fugees has said anything Anti-White. It is all myth.

Also, don't you think that if someone did say something like that, MTV would've been ALL OVER IT (Like they were when Kanye West made his statement at the president)??? They have never covered that story.

Dude, I agree with you ten ways from Tuesday. I love rock and love rap. I just don't see the need to knock one or the other especially based on the color of one's skin.
