while i never liked rap music, its has come along way (imo a bad way) from the conscious rap of Professor Griff and Public enemy. Songs embracing wal-mart, selling crack, food stamps. As a man with many african-american friends 2 of them who rap, i've challenged them before by saying hip hop / rap is the worst thing to happen to blacks since slavery. Surprisingly they agree but argue its the only medium they can use to "reach" their people. Sad because reggae, jazz, and soul is awesome.
Poor people so attached to validating their material self-worth they will rap about eating the scraps of masta's table. E.g- Ebt cards.
Another tear rolls off hipsters face...
