   Too bad there aren't any rappers on tv who care about spreading knowledge and empowering the black community like Public Enemy use to do.

7. TATE, on January 7th, 2009 at 03:35:06 Said:
   I agree on both points. Corruption, violence, power, etc. starts and ends with profit. This is everywhere-- it really is all about money.

    Frankly, I think there is a difference between hip hop and "gangster rap". The early 90's is when gangster rap was at it's peak, and I was among the biggest listeners then because I could relate to the lyrics when I lived the same thing. Truth is, this music now is a lot more mellow than it used to be listen to, and it's gone way too commercial now. However, people don't wanna take responsibility for being a failure as parents. Parents need to watch and listen to what their kids are doing.

    hahaha! omg i love eric dyson, what a legend.
18. WARE, on January 7th, 2009 at 07:47:55 Said:
    i think that hip-hop has made an image because of these rappers telling about how rich they are and drug-dealing shit. it ain't gonna change that fast! i don't think it's gonna change in the next 5years...

    What The Fuck? 50 Cent Popularizing The 9? BULLSHIT
20. DONATELLO, on January 7th, 2009 at 08:33:53 Said:
    Eric dyson's thoughts were of genius intellect. I fully agree when he said scarface's insightful lyrics are under appreciated
21. Roswalt, on January 7th, 2009 at 08:56:52 Said:
    We, as a world wide community that listen ens to hip hop music, aren't affected by the rap content. It doesn't make us do things, but I AM SICK AND TIRED OF LISTENING TO RAPPERS GOING ON ABOUT HOW RICH THEY ARE blabla. I love Rap Music, please artists, let me love your lyrics too.

    pray4me-Jesus told me persecution is him trying to make you loose your salvation, pray for me, Holy Ghost baptizm feels like Body your perfect size coming in, electricity caressing penus, spiking, hair loss, itching in scalp, face bags and sags cause muscles tithen at instant you wink, turn, head, in vision Jesus came down and pointed like lighted needle thru heart, felt hole, all desire to live for Jesus drained out, this is teasing by God to persecute, gum desease, dreams of family in hell

    People gotta take responsibility for their own actions, you can't always look for something or someone else to blame for what's wrong in society. or else you'll never acknowledge that you ain't livin' right and you'll never make a choice to live right. stop wasting time blaming and instead put your time and energy towards trying to improving yourself and helping those around you.
