It won't change America immeadiately as far as our political system, but it absolutely has an impact on our youth culture. It seems most people over 40 hate rap and Contemporary R&B.
20 years ago hip hop was a small, underground movement and, now in 2006, kids call themselves the "Hip-Hop Nation". It's changed the way we all dress, play sports, movies, TV, and speak.
It's not the first time this has happened. It's a generational thing. Young America was very repressed until Rock & Roll hit the radio (1954). Suddenly teens were looked at as as a significant group, but others got catagorized as hoodlums and troublemakers.
The baby boomers of the late '60's were looked at as drugged out hippies. They DID change America, for both good and bad, and the hip-hop loving kids of today can break even more barriers, if they can find a cause that unites, rather than divides them.

Music does not change America, America changes America. Music can change according to the times.

no, but I think that music is a reflection of the times.
Right now, standards in this country are low and the music reflects that.
