Hip-Hop

When Rap spawned it surfaced the ideology that equated black strength and authentic black identity with a militantly adversarial stance toward American society and the issues that face many young people such as discrimination, peer relations, and self-worth.

Now Rap or Hip – hop as it is called, is supporting and nurturing an environment that degrades disrespects, dehumanizes, and dishonors women and promotes sexism.

It makes thinking men and women into degenerate sex animals, reflecting humans as mere sex objects.

Almost every hip-hop video that is regularly run today in the most popular music channels specifically transmit, promote, and perpetuate negative images of women.

Mainstream hip-hop has influenced the music industry like a plague as it spreads and continuously gains popularity. Hip Hop portrays “its cool to be black” and our generation has blindly and whole heartedly accepted the notion . It is really sad to watch our generation trying to dress and act like their Hip Hop Icons and young girls idolizing Britney, Christina and the Hiltons .

I hope we wake up before we turn into apes .
