Okay, now how many cannot because of their educational system is sub par to that of the "white suburb" education.

Why? Because thats where the easy money is at. Because you dont need an education to do it. You can even break the laws of this country and probably get away with it. LOL Rap artists ( ) have proven this time and again...even just simple things like their flagrant misuse of the basic foundation of our educational system: THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. Yes I realize that there are other forms of music with the same problem, but I think you would be hard-pressed to find a modern rap CD that isnt full of slang, word misuse, vulgarity, and basically everything that is anti-educational.

I might buy into that logic if I was oh, say, a grand wizard in the KKK.
Seriously you think only black kids want to be rappers and musicians? Oh, I guess that megadeath group you have listened to since the mid 80's are educational. My bad. Please.
And for your information there ARE rappers out there that are eructated, do not misuse words, and are not vulgar. I would love to see you get up on stage and freestyle a bit. Maybe you will think twice of your grasp on the English language and your ability to create rhyme and reason together to create music.

These rappers are role models for the young black communities. If these kids hear nothing but uneducated crap from those role models, then that does have an adverse affect.
thoughts?

Okay, so this is partially true. Who are the white kids rolemodels then? Britney spears? Tommy and Pamela Lee? Ozzy? Emenem?
