For you to Generalize all RAP as "hilarious, deviant and quite disgusting" is very ignorant, you obviously have no experinece with the True culture, with artists like, "the Roots", "Lupe Fiasco",and "Mos Def", and many others who find the negative materialism very harmful to our community

I would also add that culture is damaging to people of ethnic color. I shudder at the fact that not only in Hummers but very POS vehicles are donning rims that cost more than the vehicle itself. It seems to me that in that culture- showing off money is more important than utility, education for their children, shelter, healthcare and food. Bad english is another normalcy in that culture.

I agree with this statement, but remember when rock got huge they did the same thing, its just an industry where so much money is made the average artist doesnt know how to deal with it properly, i have a DVD showing angus and Malcol young of AC/DC racing thier Ferrari's in the desert when they made it, and partying with strippers

I found that image of a black Jesus and many think he was. I think he was of arabic decent- but that's just me. And "I'm gonna git you sucka" is an ebonic phrase and a movie. I chose a black one to convey the joke. No one would of understood really if I put a white one. And ebonics is nothing but sh1t- sorry.

It just so happens that blacks are associated with that culture. It was started by them and many (certainly not all) in that culture are black. Not my fault, it's theirs. It's sad and certainly something that needs to be addressed in "African American" (I dunno if that is even politcally correct anymore) society.

For you to associate Black's with that culture as opposed to other Positive role models, just shows the actual contact you've had with the people, just because Most mobsters are italian, i would not think all italians are in the mob, hence the pic i put up would offend a decent Italian American


and i'm Canadian, we dont use that phrase

If anything you should be upset with me using Jesus' picture and "sucka" in the same post. But then again, I really don't care.

i was upset about that, but i was trying to limit the amount i said on the topic

You seem very educated on the topic, which makes it that much more hanus for you to demean it so
