As Gansta rap took over it gave positivity by showing what the real world is like and gave afros something to relate to but came with a lot of negativity and put sex drugs weapons gangs and killing into a bigger spotlight.
now rap is just about girls and beats and U need to look hard so they sell drugs, cuss and exploit women. no one really cares for their lyrics they just say what ever rhymes and because rap crossed over to other genres so much people dont know what real hip hop is. they think Hip Hop is rap but its not any genre can have rap.
Rap is just a footnote of HipHop.




Its easy to tell the real Hip-Hop artist from The Rappers
Hip hop artist put there life in the music and Try to bring there story out so that others can be aware and learn from them.

The Rappers just look out for themselves and create effortless lyrics just for money and popularity!

The media got lost in touch with Hip Hop since it started. From the beginning they began to make it how they wanted it to be.

Threads like these make me want to stab my eyes out.
I'll just start off by saying the majority rappers today have no intention of supporting hip-hop culture. If you don't support the culture, then you aren't really hip-hop.

^Likewise, but you gotta give Chuckles here some props. He actually admitted he might be wrong and he even asked for someone to set him straight. Unfortunately, some of the responses in this thread aren't helping him at all. I'll help you stab your eyes out.

I don't look at other dancers as idols, I look at them as opponents.
When I see someone do something dope on the floor, I don't go screaming like a little girl, I try to do something even better.
