Sorry Gilda, I don't want to sound mean, but this kind of talk makes me really angry. It's not street music, it's not all sampled and the lyrics aren't that hard to understand, and Kanye doesn't even swear that much if at all, I don't remember.

It's 2005. Rap has been here for a long time now, it's time to recognize it for the legitimate genre that it is. You talk about barriers, I firmly believe people that don't like rap or hip hop have never listened to it.
