Censorship and HipHop
The new uproar in in the society we call Hip Hop, "Censorship". Tell me something, is all of this fallout due to the whole Don Imus situation? If it is, I think the "ish" is ridiculous!!!! These words didn't come from rap music, these words came from the street which is the environment that birthed Hip Hop!! I think that if we are going to mend this situation we need to correct the behaviors of the street. This whole situation boils down to economics. Those at the bottom struggle and got through more hardship than those at the top. What ever trends that have been set in society started at the top and trickle their way down to the bottom. Al Sharpton needs to attack the system on whole basis and not lead a "halfway" staged attack on the entertainment industry moguls. Banning the words, "nigga", bitch, and "ho" isn't going to change whats going on in the hood. Again Al Sharpton if your going to attack the industry make sure to attack all of them.
50 Cent has been on Rap City all week and here is footage of him and Cousin Jeff talking about the whole Hip Hop censorship issue. Check it out:
