RE: Hip hop culture promotes immaturity

in #hip-hop7 years ago

Seeds of influence - not saying that is making anyone do anything. However, do not discount the power of influence. That is precisely why you are trying to protect hip-hop. I have to laugh a bit because I literally see men in their 50s and 60s still dressing "hip-hop". It is hilarious and sad to see them try to look like they are in their 20s and it does not match. Proof! I have seen "hip-hop" influence guys in their 20s and 30s in regards to how they dress when they are with their woman in the store. The woman, dressed nicely, looked like the man's mother and he looked like the little brother or son. Proof! Hip-hop promotes sagging pants (and more). Not a sign or maturity. Proof! I can do this all day. Shall we bring in the lyrics, more about the clothing, slang words and other influences of hip-hop? Now, the minority part of promoted hip-hop, in essence a small percentage of it, is positive. The only major promotion of maturity within hip-hop is on the money making side in the board rooms of the businesses. What is promoted to the fans is for them to stay immature and rebellious. They do it because that is where the money is. Now, notice how I am staying on point and don't need to talk about dead jazz musicians or Goya.
