Hip Hop
Hi Sorors, Sisterfriends, & Brotherfriends!
I am doing some research on The Impact of The Hip Hop Culture On Student Values and I want to ask you all a couple of questions.
In your opinion:
1. What is hip hop?
2. What do you think about females who rap sexually explicit lyrics (Lil' Kim, Foxy Brown, Trina)?
3. Do you think that the disrespect of women and misogyny in rap lyrics are simply to sell the music or does it speak a reality?
4. Do women who rap about sex for money and gifts show a low or lack of self esteem or does it show strength and someone who knows what she wants and does it by any means necessary?
5. Is the popularity of rapping about materialism in music a trend that will pass?
6. Do you think fans of rap music are influenced in any way by the lyrics and music? Do they live vicariously through the music?
O.K. That's all of my questions for now. I have several others but this is a start. Thanks to everyone for your help! If you choose to answer, please put your age in parentheses at the beginning of your answer.
Thanks,
PC
