Why is it that black american teens listen and watch things about drugs, violence, girls and money? These things happen everyday! When your entire life is a bad soap opera, why do you want to see it on TV? Only mature answers, please. And keep in mind that I am black, and thus not racist.

"Now that is is some quality self hatred"
What the hell?!?! I don't hate anyone or anything, much less myself. Just because I don't like the ignorrance of many black people, doesn't mean I hate black people themselves. Just because I may insult most people of a certain race, doesn't mean I am insulting myself. I said mature answers, you a**. At least make it a little more challenging for me to disprove you.

The same reason "white" people, or Asian, or Hispanic people watch this stuff...it is escapism. I don't know where you are from but where I am from black people's lives are no more a soap opera than anyone elses.

its cultural, nurture vs nature. If you are raised on rap cause your older bro does you will to. My Fiance is half black but raised by her mexican mom, she acts like a "normal" person, her black friends tell her she acts "white" this offends her. She likes hip hop and rap but also loves alternative music and mexican music. She jus tells them she does not act white, she just doesnt act ghetto either.

Because that's what some black folks know and that's what they're comfortable with. I'm black and I don't care for any of that stuff.
