yes your right.. like i said 85% of the things said have to merit. but then again what would it be if they talked about thier day..? rap isnt oriented around the "young balck male" since something like 70% of buyers are white...

I meant "rap" not the people who buy it. There arent large groups of white people crowding into the source awards or the rappers themselves are mostly black.

Basket: Your correct. The mystery I have with it is why more people arent offended by it. Let me clear myself up here. Most rappers act like morons. I'll say most because there are always exceptions. It's perceived as a good thing in life to have little to no education,brag about being shot,brag about drug use,and brag about how many "bitches" they have.

To me its stupid. Now im not saying rap is stupid. I'm just saying the whole perception of it,and the people that buy into the whole world of realism of rap. Yeah people can say this guy got shot or whatever,but how many murders are totally unrelated to rap?

You could make a case for about any type of music. Ex:Country=Redneck. Rap is just the hardest one to sell to myself.
