Letters to the Editor

Hip-hop was created as an alternative to the thug life and to spread positivity and knowledge not learned in the miseducational system of Amerikkka. Public Enemy, KRS-ONE and others led the way until NWA with Cube proved there was money in fakin' gangsterisms. The deaths of Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G. only added to the rapid elimination of positive hip-hop with the perpetuation of stereotypes.

After all, the major multi-national label owners would prefer keeping the upcoming generations at the bottom of the ladder rather than see them educated and vying for positions of power and influence.
