Because they're idiots! No other way to put it. They need more parental guidance, too.

I think they do it because it's what is "cool" right now with the media.
Come on, all kids wanna be something stupid at some point in their lives! girls with the whole "I want to be the next top model!" and boys say that they wanna be a gangsta now instead of G.I Joe.
It's stupid both ways to me... and as far as always pointing the finger to rap music being the problem.. rap music uses alot of it to sell an image that is going to appeal to some people and people need to open their eyes and see what is really goin' on and not allow them selves to fall into a fantasy lifestyle that many people make money (Hollywood!!) not just rappers.
I listen to alot of rap music and I LOVE IT, my brother listens to rap music too and he doesn't go around callin' himself gangsta!
You know what... he can go around callin' himself gangsta, but don't let him think that it's the only way to go through life because there is much that he can do and if he thinks that what he hears in music is the truth(again not just rap other genres say **** to sell too!) then he will be lost.
Rap music is "real" music, it's just another form of musical entertainment like rock, metal, pop, country, etc.
There's no need to force him to listen to another form of music.
Basically most of my family likes listening to stuff like rock and metal as well as classical music! we don't go around hatin' each other just because some listen to rap and some to metal. So don't act aggressively with your brother otherwise it's just going to make him lean towards more negative thoughts about other people just because they don't agree with the music of choice, educate him about what is really happening in reality instead of attacking him!

In short, because the media bombards them with that stuff pretty much 24/7.

they think that it's cool when it really isn't because real gangstas use weapons, fight, & sell drugs. but because it's being glorified on t.v. they think that it's okay.
