Hip hop and life. Hip hop is a life style, you know what I mean? Hip hop has always been
the voice of the urban people, ethnic people, and right now it's the voice of the generations
to come. Many artists in the hip hop game have used their ability in hip hop to speak
publicly on great topics, you know, such as Chuck D, you know, speaking out against political
things and right now you have many hip hop artists such as T.I. and Little Wayne using
their gift just about voting and registration and getting out there. Hip hop, it can be
used in the life style workshop in many different ways. You know, kids learn from hip hop. If
you look at TV shows today, a lot of you got shows such as Hip Hop Harry and kids are more
prone to learn music and hip hop than it is for, it's easier for them to learn something
like that than it is from text book. So, if you could use hip hop in a positive form and
have a positive manner you will be surprised at those that you could reach by using it
and doing so. In the past, you know, the media and a lot of other people have blamed hip
hop artists such as Eminem, N.W.A., even Luke, you know what I mean, for the negativity that
hip hop brings in society. Tupac being another one. But, at the same light, you know, people
don't look at the positive things that hip hop does in society, such as different artists,
as in T.I., Chuck D, and so on, you know. Hip hop can be used in a very positive manner.
It all depends on the route that you take to use hip hop.
