HIP HOP: The Devolution of Black Culture

HIP HOP: The Devolution of Black Culture November 12, 2005


Rosa Parks just died and Reebok pronounces that black authenticity is represented by 50 Cent, who records works that have him and his guest artists saying: ”There’s a problem, I’m a solve it, a n—- movin’ around with a big — revolver . . . You —- with me, you see, I’ll react like an animal, I tear you apart. If the masterpiece was murder, I’d major in art.”

Then there is Tony Yayo, who raps, ”I’m in that brand new Range: when I pull up, kid, I turn your brains into red concrete stains. That’s the beauty of gruesome violence.”

African-Americans can no longer afford to coddle these people. The black czars of gutter hip-hop are the new house slaves. And Reebok’s promotion of this material, along with Comcast and other media giants, is just as reprehensible.
