Fuck rappers. Fuck what "rappers" are doing. What are YOU doing? I wasn't in Ferguson as a rapper. I was there as a man.

There are many in the hiphop generation, raised on hiphop, working for positive change. Look past the rappers & u will see them.

Rap is the most profitable manifestation of hiphop, therefore the most visible. But many "hiphoppers" do great work outside of the spotlight

(Actually, the consumers totally choose) RT @OddyOdoes: @TalibKweli @noreaga The public doesnt chose what can or cant be played on radio!

RT @SpiritEquality: now, post-Kanye/Cole/Drake/Macklemore, that being a gangsta rapper is less profitable than ever. Yet they try. Why?

@SpiritEquality I think cuz of where we from. Oppressed, pathological neighborhoods create oppressed, pathological rappers.
