Do you guys think it's valid to say that in a lot of ways mainstream rap annoys people to the point where they figure that all rap is bad, and brings them to the point where they even tend to discriminate and hate the people that listen to mainstream rap?
I guess what I'm trying to get at is, do you think this butchering of rap is in part causing discrimination against black people or people who say they listen to rap?

Yes it is. And most who say they hate rap are really saying they hate black people and the black culture (not necessarily those who posted). Discrimination is everywhere though you can't escape it you just gotta learn to live with it like myself and other minorities have to. And bad music is bad music but if it's making kids wanna drop the books and pick up a gun or go to a club rather than get a job, n everything imbetween then it's more than just bad music....it's practically a plague. And for that reason I can understand why people would hate it. It doesn't give them the right to stereotype or generalize or discriminate against an entire race and generation though. It's a sad subject and I'd love to stop it but fact of the matter is one finger can't pick up the trash as good as 2 hands. Eventually it might but it would take a long long time.
Asta!!
