I also blame these shuckin' and jivin' rappers and the actors who genuflect before these bogus producers.

For the record, I agree with you. That's why whenever I get a chance to tell this "old head's" side of the story, I often do.
Oh, and where I live, it's not mostly white kids who are into hip hop -- it's Asian kids. I even saw a Korean dude with an afro the other day. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
