Upon hearing that a few of my friends have taken an interest in learning the "Soulja Boy" dance, I wondered what the black rap/hip-hop fan community would think of this. I have heard things like "whitey can't dance" and it appears that there is a general consideration of white rap/hip-hop fans, or whites that try to emulate the "ghetto" lifestyle as absurd and foolish. Rap music and hip-hop music are just genres, but I am specifically looking for the attitude of the scene. Would a white person be able to walk into a club with more blacks than whites without being kicked out of laughed at? Would a white person be able to dance the "Soulja Boy" dance without being disrespected? I don't know if whites are disrespected for this or not, and I am curious to hear what the followers of the hip-hop scene have to say.
What does the black rap/hip-hop scene think of white rap/hip-hop fans?
The don't think anything but $$$
"Most rappers got new albums that white kids are anticipating"
-Chamillionaire 'Evening News'
These days I think allot of people are over the whole black/white thing its just getting ridiculous... but you are entitled to your opinion.
I think its rather disgusting that people stare at me when I go out with my boyfriend cause he is black.... but oh well.
Some people are just ignorant.
Reply:I can tell when someone is a true fan of rap/hip hop, as oppose to trying to fit in or show off. If they can tell the difference between Rap and Hip Hop (and there is a difference), then I’m cool with them, whether they're African-American or not. Report It
Reply:I think this would depend on which region of the country you are in. Some areas may be more accepting of the white hip hop followers than others. Here in Chicago, from what I see, it's accepted for the most part. However I am sure there are some areas where it is not as acceptable.
Reply:last time I checked this is a free country. lol I don't care if club is full of blacks. im there for fun. clubs are for having fun. if some one causes trouble . that's why I carry my 9mm.
Reply:I wonder that too, because yea im Mexican and White and i look more White though, and im from South Central TX where thers mainly Mexicans and Blacks at my school... and well there was a poll where the class had to make a graph, bout music and the choices were Rap/HipHop, R%26amp;B, Rock, Or Country and i heard a few say ANAS GONA GET COUNTRY OR ROCK! i waslk GWD SUT THE HEAK UP, im a HipHop Luva! it annoys me when they say im a "rock country person"... gosh thats annoyin...
Reply:well no offence peeps look i'm black but spanish any who i know that the african americans as in usa and stuff are more like rude and insultung but it would also depend on the whity
lol if he thinks he's all that never ever go in to a black club it won't be pretty but that ym opinion

What is the origin of hip-hop???
im doing a reasearch on hip-hop and i was wondering if any body can answer these questions:
when did everyone begin to love hip-hop?
how did people react top hip-hop when it was first created?
what is hip-hop excatly?
where did the idea of hip-hop come from
What is the origin of hip-hop???
hip hop came directly off the streets. it evolved from culture and now they reflect each other.
Sugar Hill Gang was one of the pioneers who brought hip hop to the mainstream with "Rapper's Delight"
that should get you started, there is plenty of info out there, do some research.

Reply:You could debate this topic for hours depending on what coast your from. East coast believes it started in the Bronx and other there will tell you it started in Queens. Likewise people on the Left coast will tell you that "rap" known to us old skoolers and "hip hop" to new schoolers started in Compton or Southcentral L.A. Most believe that the biggest contributers to the "hip hop" scene were The Last Poets and Africa Bambatta. Myself I started not loving but listening to Hip Hop in 86/87 the baby stages. As for a reaction I couldnt tell you I was just born when it first evolved from the disco/funk era in 1977. There are 4 elements of Hip Hop break dancing, B-boying, graffiti and EmCeeing. To conclude I believe as with all great ideas Hip Hop evolved out of people meeting in a common place to discuss thier ideas and it eventually became an art form.
Reply:all the pioneers of rap will say that james brown was one of many who set the foundation for rap...along with last poets, nikki giovanni and spoken word as a whole...kool herc, afrika bambataa, grandmaster caz and grandmaster flash further developed the art with djing and lightly rhyming over records (i.e. "to da beat yall, and ya dont stop")...coke la rock and clark kent formed the first emcee team in '75 kool herc and the herculoids...kurtis blow was the first rapper to appear on national televison in october '80 on soul train he performed "the breaks"...
james brown's influence was loius jordan who was a jazz musician so it is a continuum...
first off musical tradition was carried over to america by slaves...the music was used in celebrations and rituals...
once here the slaves began to sing spirituals which was called folk music as a whole (indians and europeans also had forms of folk music but it was all called folk music as a whole because of it spiritual base)...
out of this grew blues then gospe l(folk music actually included blues and gospel) ...then ragtime then jazz...r%26amp;b and soul...then rap...
this is an abridged version of what set the foundation for rap music because like stated above the streets influenced rap heavily esp "jive"(a form of speech)...rap has a very rich history cannot credited for having one main influence it is a form of expression that was a form of rebellion against what was going on at the time (just like rock and roll was)...the youth had their own form of music that allowed them to express themselves in a way that was fun, creative and uplifting...

What happened to hip hop?
hip hop is nowadays is all about girls,cars,money and how many times they can get laid. its garbage now. the only song in that genre that i listen to is A TRIBE CALLED QUEST. hip hop used to be my favorite genre but now i hate it. I LOVE CLASSIC ROCK NOW !!!! OH AND HIP HOP DIED IN THE MID 90'S.
OLD SCHOOL HIP HOP R.I.P
What happened to hip hop?
Its not that good Hip Hop died so much as it went into hiding. You're right in saying that Hip Hop's golden period ended in the mid 90s mostly because it was after that time that the gap between mainstream hip hop and good hip hop became obvious. Think about it, back in the 90's a tribe called quest was definately mainstream music. After their first album went GOLD (sold 500,000 + copies) their next three albums went PLATINUM, which shows that besides being real good music, a tribe called quest was on the radio and TV all the time. This situation is completely different than Hip Hop now. 99% of hip hop on the radio, MTV, and BET is complete garbage. However all hope is not lost. Good hip hop can still be found--you just have to look a little harder. Relatively mainstream artists like The Roots, Talib Kweli, and Common are still making good music. Underground Hip Hop is still alive and well too and if you listen to that, you'll see artists who care about the music more than money and bling.
Reply:White people. Just kidding. Capitalism. You can't sell the movement.
Reply:theres still some decent songs by like ne-yo and chris brown. pop, lock, and drop it and i'm a flirt are good songs too, though i agree with you. im not that much of a classical rock gal, mostly alternative and light rock i guess. i love pop music as well.
Reply:I'm with you on that. I feel bad for the generations that are coming up in the world that will be listening to that.

The State of Hip Hop?
Alright, so I want everyone that visits this page to vote with either group one or two.
Group one: Your a group one person, you like to listen to acts like Talib Kweli, Slick Rick, Rakim, Nas, BIG, Common, %26amp; other rap acts that are often considered classic rap acts.
Group Two: You prefer acts like Ludacris, Young Jeezy, UNK, 50 Cent and other currently popular acts.
Okay, the idea of this is to see how many people really are becoming fed up with with the current state of Hip Hop.
To me, Hip Hop is a dying art form, however, many of the people I've spoken to recently seem to share my opinion that Hip Hop need a revival, and that much of the current stuff is worthless. With this poll I want to see how many people really agree with me that hip hop needs a makeover.
The State of Hip Hop?
Group 1! I cant tell you how long it's been since I listened to the radio. I wont say its all bad, but almost. I do like Mike Jones and UGK since Im from Texas. But, If I hear another song by Akon, or T-Pain, I will shoot myself in the head!
Reply:I'm in group 1.
I grew up with that music.
This music added to the best hip-hop
experiences in my life.
Then NWA came out.
then the "Chronic" album exploded
Then Bone thugs, Ice T.
Too Short, etc.
The thing is, when these people came out there was also clean rap out too like
Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince with
"Summer Time"
Tribe called Quest with "Banita Applebaum"
Brand Nubian's, Outkast with "Elevators"
Yo-Yo, The Fugees, BBD was out(I know they aren't rappers)
They kind of evened it out.
Now everyone wants to be a
Pimped-out-Gangsta!
Too Short was considered one of the most vulgar rappers. Now EVERYONE raps like that!
It's sad that this is what these kids have to grow up listening to.
rap took a turn for the worst.
And some of them suck!

Reply:I LIKE GROUP 2 IM YOUNG AND I LIKE MUSIC THAT U CAN DANCE TO AND HAVE FUN WITH I DONT CARE IF THE SONG GOT A MESSAGE OR NOT
Reply:I listen to both of the "groups" mentioned. I find it sad that group two has pushed out group one. Hip Hop is alive; the consumers and the media chose to support one group, and that group is number 2.

group two is nice they seem like a nice group of young fellows too.
Reply:Hip-Hop and Rap are dying. Major record sales over the past two years have TANKED....big time. Nothing personal, but the major labels have moved on, dumping Hip-Hop and Rap pretty much altogether. Good luck to the 'independents', but I laughably doubt they'll ever attain the profits enjoyed by the major labels.
Sadder still, is the witless hype that cries Hip-Hop is booming and Rap is s*it hot. Hey: The 'bling-bling' is fake, the high-profile cars and SUVs are rentals.
Reply:I think the problem with hip hop is that the songs out now are dance songs or are about cars, chains, and girls......etc. Real hip hop makes you THINK AND FEEL NOT SHAKE YOUR BOOTY OR POP LOCK AND DROP IT HAHA

i like group one because they seem less fake
Reply:I listen to both. I love Talib, Nas, Biggie, Common, Tupac, Jay-Z, etc. and also listen to others such as Run DMC, but unfortunately haven't become too familiar with Rakim or Slick Rick (although I love him on the Aaliyah track). I find that these artists have music that are just classics and that will always be played. Also, they often rap about deeper issues that a lot of modern groups don't dwell on. However, I feel like I need to, in a way, defend Group 2. Most popular acts are in it for the money, but you have to give a bit of nod at least to their production and their strategy at crossing over into the pop market. Also, Biggie definitely was a popular act in the '90's, and the other names mentioned in Group 1 had a few moments where they had some hits. Also, I love Ludacris, and just because he creates a lot of party anthems since he is known for that doesn't mean that that is all he is. He gives a thought to a lot of his lyrics as well as his past and social issues. There is still a lot of great new music out there (I love Lupe Fiasco) and while hip hop has really changed a lot, people thought it was dying 10 years ago too, and I think that the makeover will happen regardless and automatically as with everything in the world, so there should be no need to worry.

Reply:when i get to high school, theres a varsity hip-hop dance team and im joining it so any kind of hip-hop that i can dance to is good but i like group one better, they write better lyrics. also ludacris shoudl be with group 1 because he writes good music too.

Rap/Hip Hop Culture - does it exist?
Several years ago a Grade 10 history student of mine wanted to do a research project on the history of Rap/Hip Hop (a good choice for a topic, as it happens). He told me that rap was 'his culture' (He was from Sierra Leone). I said that while Rap/Hip Hop did have a distinct and interesting history, I didn't think it could be called a 'culture' - it can't be compared with Chinese Culture, Muslim Culture, Ashante Culture etc... So my question(s) to you is (are): what IS a culture? Is Rap/Hip Hop a culture and if so, what makes it a culture? Or is it part of a larger culture - and if so, what are that culture's traditions and values? Thanks!
Rap/Hip Hop Culture - does it exist?
Hi,
yes, it is a culture.
A culture is a way of life. There are many cultures and sub cultures. I think hip-hoip culture comes under "youth culture"!
Reply:it is a culture by the way i see it;
simply because it has became their life style
altho its clear to see that rap and hiphop cn also conclude frm the sense of music yet how they delivers their music is basicly showing how their lifes are. its something tht ppl would do, in a society tht is. Report It
Reply:The culture of rap/hip-hop....
Saggy pants, tank-tops, boomboxes, bling... Is this not a definition of culture? There is a metal culture.
It's basically a way of life, shaped by the music that a person listens to. it's a culture, but not in the same sense as Muslim/Chinese etc culture.
Sometimes music can define the clothes a person wears, the language they use and the general way people lead their life.
That, for me, is a definition of the word culture.
So although I agree with you 100%, I disagree that it is not a culture. It's just a different form of culture. One that is not shaped by beliefs or geographic location.
Reply:Well... according to the legendary KRS1 Hip Hop is officially recognised as a culture by the United Nations. To me it is very much a part of inner city culture, a reflection of city life. To me culture is a way of life, the necessary thoughts and practices needed to form a group of people. Think of a plant from it is seed. All the nurturing it takes to grow it into a fully developed flower is culture.
There was a time when Hip Hop promoted the more cultural aspects of being a black community in a white mans world, however that has been shadowed by the more individualist capitalist idea as pushed by the likes of 50cent and Jay Z type m.c's. Your question should be a real thinking point for all these rappers 2day.
Reply:Does it exist?
Not at this white man's house.
Reply:come and live in Louisiana, and you will change your mind.
Reply:It is a culture.
Reply:What makes the Chinese or Muslim cultures? How would you define someone of the chinese culture? By their appearance? By their customs?
I know a B-Boy on sight. I know the "customs" of a battle. I believe that Hip Hop is a culture and I have been a part of it for over 20 years.
I'm not going to try to "explain" to you what being a part of this culture is because I don't think it's something that could be explained in a forum like this.
Reply:i dont know where happy gets his info from but, whatever
ignorance is bliss right happy ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ loser...
anyway in my opinion hiphop/rap culture can only fall under a larger culture
which is african-american culture
if you look back at the history of hiphop youd see.
granted it has a wide following of races now, it cant be denied that hiphop is a major part of african-american culture.
to the girl below me, HIPHOP is as much a part of black culture as gospel, R%26amp;b, jazz, and soul
it is celebrated as a part of african-american culture just watch BET....
just because it has a wider following more than one race listens in doesnt mean its any less of a part of black culture
just because there white buddists doesnt mean its any less of a asian culture
just because JAPAN has a baseball league doesnt mean baseball is any less part of american culture
and just because hiphop is celebrated world wide
doesnt erase the fact that it is a major part of our culture
Reply:Hip Hop is a culture (encompassing MC-ing, DJ-ing, break-dancing and artistic expression through graffiti). It shouldn't be confused with rap. Coming from one of the original pioneers Busy Bee, rap is just a medium of expression.
True Hip Hop is about peace, love, unity and having fun. All of the materialism, sexism and violence that present in today's "hip hop" (e.g. what artists like 50 Cent promote) has no real place there. It has skewed the original meaning of Hip Hop and why it was born (with Afrika Bambaataa in the Bronx).
Reply:Yes, it is a culture. Perhaps best stated as a sub-culture because it still has to blend itself with the main culture of the U.S. in order to work. One of the tell-tail signs that it is a culture is from the ethnocentrism that surrounds it. Ethnocentrism is an instinct that ALL humans have. It, basically, means that we think that our way of doing things is the best way --- period. If you stop for a moment and look at the answers that have been given, so far, you will see that ethnocentrism coming from both directions.

By looking at the definition of the word 'culture', it can very easily be shown that Hip hop can most definitely be viewed as a culture, far more so than 'Muslim' culture, which is actually the religion of Islam and not a culture at all!
I think a good question would concern whether or not anything should be defined in terms of culture at all. All it does is cause division (between 'cultures'), and can lead to outdated and potentially dangerous customs to be carried out simple for the sake of traditional values that lie within the confines of a culture. Just my opinion.

We are gathered here today to discuss some interesting sh!t! Is this hip hop thing of ours a culture. I’ll spit some of my opinion,….
Hip hop began as a reaction to the gang problems in NYC in the 60s. It was zip gun time and the art of the switch blade was in effect. Gang members (Bambatta most famously) decided to get into the whole deejaying thing as a positive outlet for their crews. Didn’t take long before the battling was on the turntables, break beat selection, fat laces (later to become phat laces!) and the break boys. Hip hop heads that waited to showcase their talents at the break of a soul or funk song where the instrumental break… well… broke down. It was the soul of the record and thus was born sampling (Kool Herc %26amp; FLASH).
So music enthused non-violent confrontation.
Clothing, beatboxin, breakin, slang, clothes, etc are all part of the ‘culture’ but the source of telling street stories, battling with the MIC and a showcasing talent vehicle (in a harsh white corporate world) was the original ethos of hip hop. You should be able to figure out where hip hop culture stands on the Rodney King beating, Iraq conflicts, poverty in the US, etc.
Hip hop is also about love %26amp; humour %26amp; bringing people together %26amp; ingenuity. Using obscure breaks, introducing a generation to Rick James or James Brown can only be done thru this culture.
Reply:a culture is refered to as an appreciation of literature,art,music and etc. hip hop is an appreciation of a type of music, it appreciates literature in the form of the lyrics and poems e.g tupacs poems..the art of dressin is also appreciated. hip hop has its leaders it has its own style and one can also say it has its own race but besides that there are also rules in hip hop...hip hop was once part of a larger culture but has grown and seperated from that larger culture.

Rap/Hip Hop Culture - does it exist?
Hi,
yes, it is a culture.
A culture is a way of life. There are many cultures and sub cultures. I think hip-hoip culture comes under "youth culture"!
Reply:it is a culture by the way i see it;
simply because it has became their life style
altho its clear to see that rap and hiphop cn also conclude frm the sense of music yet how they delivers their music is basicly showing how their lifes are. its something tht ppl would do, in a society tht is. Report It
Reply:The culture of rap/hip-hop....
Saggy pants, tank-tops, boomboxes, bling... Is this not a definition of culture? There is a metal culture.
It's basically a way of life, shaped by the music that a person listens to. it's a culture, but not in the same sense as Muslim/Chinese etc culture.
Sometimes music can define the clothes a person wears, the language they use and the general way people lead their life.
That, for me, is a definition of the word culture.
So although I agree with you 100%, I disagree that it is not a culture. It's just a different form of culture. One that is not shaped by beliefs or geographic location.
Reply:Well... according to the legendary KRS1 Hip Hop is officially recognised as a culture by the United Nations. To me it is very much a part of inner city culture, a reflection of city life. To me culture is a way of life, the necessary thoughts and practices needed to form a group of people. Think of a plant from it is seed. All the nurturing it takes to grow it into a fully developed flower is culture.
There was a time when Hip Hop promoted the more cultural aspects of being a black community in a white mans world, however that has been shadowed by the more individualist capitalist idea as pushed by the likes of 50cent and Jay Z type m.c's. Your question should be a real thinking point for all these rappers 2day.
Reply:Does it exist?
Not at this white man's house.
Reply:come and live in Louisiana, and you will change your mind.
Reply:It is a culture.
Reply:What makes the Chinese or Muslim cultures? How would you define someone of the chinese culture? By their appearance? By their customs?
I know a B-Boy on sight. I know the "customs" of a battle. I believe that Hip Hop is a culture and I have been a part of it for over 20 years.
I'm not going to try to "explain" to you what being a part of this culture is because I don't think it's something that could be explained in a forum like this.
Reply:i dont know where happy gets his info from but, whatever
ignorance is bliss right happy ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ loser...
anyway in my opinion hiphop/rap culture can only fall under a larger culture
which is african-american culture
if you look back at the history of hiphop youd see.
granted it has a wide following of races now, it cant be denied that hiphop is a major part of african-american culture.
to the girl below me, HIPHOP is as much a part of black culture as gospel, R%26amp;b, jazz, and soul
it is celebrated as a part of african-american culture just watch BET....
just because it has a wider following more than one race listens in doesnt mean its any less of a part of black culture
just because there white buddists doesnt mean its any less of a asian culture
just because JAPAN has a baseball league doesnt mean baseball is any less part of american culture
and just because hiphop is celebrated world wide
doesnt erase the fact that it is a major part of our culture
Reply:Hip Hop is a culture (encompassing MC-ing, DJ-ing, break-dancing and artistic expression through graffiti). It shouldn't be confused with rap. Coming from one of the original pioneers Busy Bee, rap is just a medium of expression.
True Hip Hop is about peace, love, unity and having fun. All of the materialism, sexism and violence that present in today's "hip hop" (e.g. what artists like 50 Cent promote) has no real place there. It has skewed the original meaning of Hip Hop and why it was born (with Afrika Bambaataa in the Bronx).
Reply:Yes, it is a culture. Perhaps best stated as a sub-culture because it still has to blend itself with the main culture of the U.S. in order to work. One of the tell-tail signs that it is a culture is from the ethnocentrism that surrounds it. Ethnocentrism is an instinct that ALL humans have. It, basically, means that we think that our way of doing things is the best way --- period. If you stop for a moment and look at the answers that have been given, so far, you will see that ethnocentrism coming from both directions.

Can someone please tell me the difference between hip hop and rap?
I have always thought of hip hop as guys like Common, Kanye, Mos, etc. and rap as guys like Tupac, Bone Thugs, Crime Mob, etc. Some say rap is industry whereas hip hop is "real." To me hip hop is more of a cleaner sense of rap. Rap is ghetto. Hip hop is the anti-ghetto. Rap is more street. Hip hop is more flow. Am I wrong? Am I in the ballpark? Someone help me out here. I love 'em both. I just hate it when people say hip hop is dead when I feel they are talking about rap. They are different genres, and those who say hip hop is dead should at least say it about hip hop and not rap.
Can someone please tell me the difference between hip hop and rap?
i see hip hop and rap as very different. hip hop aims to highlight problems in the black community while i think rap tends to try and glamorize them. to me rappers are ppl like 50 cent, lil wayne, jeezy... and hip hop artists are ppl like common and talib kweli. i prefer hip hop to rap but i do also listen to rap music. i jus dnt like it so much b/c i think some rap lyrics are irresposibly made because they encourage minority youths to engage in bad behaviors and make them think that committing crimes and havin to hustle is cool. but its really not. i agree with nas that hip hop is practically dead.. at least in mainstream music. there is underground hip hop. but hip hop is not the same as it was in the past. i mean what happened to artists like black star, a tribe called quest, pharcyde, etc.
if i were a hip hop artist i would be insulted when ppl consider music by 50 cent or like artists to be hip hop cuz its really not what hip hop was meant to be about.
Reply:I've always known rap to be the actual act of rhyming, and Hip-Hop to be the whole culture (graffiti, cazelle glasses, Kangol hats, beat boxing, breakdancing, etc.). Whew! Took myself back for a moment. Now, I think the Hip-Hop culture is plain old garbage. It's too polluted now.
Reply:rap could be ghetto and be clean like point blank-born and raised in the ghetto
cause u see rap started and it was about being FUNKY
but then ice soemthing screwed up and made a new sub-genre called gansta-rap
and thats when it well down hill....
anyways...
ok hiphop=is a culture , away of living
rap=a genre of music
gansta rap=****.crap.
Reply:there is no diff
Reply:hip hop is useally faster and able to dance 2 rap is like a ryhme fest usally slower and more cousing
Reply:Like others have said, rap is a subset of hip-hop, which consists of 4 core activities (emceeing/rapping, graffing, breaking and djing). Rap contains many subgenres in itself...nerd/backpacker, gangsta, west coast, east coast, etc.
I think KRS-One said it best when trying to differ mainstream rap (pop-rap/gangsta) from other rap (which I really think your question is about) - "Rappers spit rhymes that are mostly illegal, MC’s spit rhymes to uplift they people. Peace, love, unity, and Havin’ fun"

Reply:Now i feel that without Hip hop, there wouldnt be Rap. and as long as there is Rap, there will be Hip hop. the difference i think between hiphop and rap is creativity. hip hop cant be as clean as rap. hip hop spoke about the hood, they spoke of drugs and guns. hip hop made MC's. hip hop was and is a culture and a form of music, just like Rap. hip hop also spoke just a street as rap. in hip hop, when a show was about to go down, the DJ he commanded attention from the people. the people of hip hop know that the DJ is essential. But the DJ wouldnt give the MC his time until he was ready to rock. MC's couldnt get heard without the DJ. hip hop MC's had beef but they didnt threaten each other with gunplay, MC's battled. all a MC needed to battle was a mic, crowd and a beat boxer. The difference is that hip hop didnt care of $200,000 cars. they spoke with a message. hip hop MC are teachers. they spoke of how to get out of the hood. hip hop didnt degrade black/ all women. Rap isnt like that. as you can see as an example, rap today lacks creativity. the rappers are consistent, they glamorize the hood, glamorizing gangsters. they talk about causing bodily harm, talk about jewelry, and ridiculous analogies and metaphors. i dont agree when SOME people say that there isnt a difference. what I HAVE noticed with todays rap, is that there arent any risk takers. rap dont bring people together to celebrate. in Rap, it sounds like eveyone is supposed to be hard or tough. for what??? I THINK that rappers dont make their own lane. SOME rappers today got that "if it aint broke dont fix it" mentality. so lets make the snap record, the club record.

Reply:It's all the same. Rap lyrics—often a brash mixture of profanity and street slang—seem to be another reason for the popularity of rap. Unlike traditional rock lyrics, many of which dwell on the subject of teenage romance, rap lyrics often have a more serious message. Some rap speaks out against injustice, racism, and police brutality. At times, though, the rhyming refrains are stated in the most foul, shocking language imaginable. Rap also seems to constitute a rebellion against standards of dress, grooming, and sexual morality. Not surprisingly, rap has become a life-style in its own right. Its adherents are identified by their flamboyant gestures, street slang, and garb—baggy jeans, unlaced high-top sneakers, gold chains, baseball caps, and dark glasses.
At Ephesians 5:10, Christians are told to “keep on making sure of what is acceptable to the Lord.” Considering the reputation rap has made for itself, do you think it would be “acceptable to the Lord” for you to get involved with it? Would a Christian youth want to be identified with a life-style that is deemed unacceptable even by many people of the world?
