I wish more black people would really listen to the message in these songs. When I listen to alot of these rap songs they talk about disrespecting women,Rap music makes drugs look glorious thats why so many are in jail. but also they talk about buying expensive clothes apple bottoms jeans that cost $68.00 a pair. The reason so many young black people are living in poverty in america because they want to keep up the image that these rappers are saying they should have impalas with big rims and $150.00 Jordons. These songs never say anything about saving money to buy a house or investing in a business. They only talk about spending money to look rich, buying platinum and gold grills diamonds. Why don't most black people who like these type of rap songs and spend all there money on clothes, shoes, and jewlery, realize that they are only making the white man richer and they will always be more as long as they keep trying to dress like their rich instead of saving and investing their money.
