24637, Black people supporting hip-hop
Posted by guest, Wed Apr-19-00 12:52 PM
i went to the common concert monday at ucla and noticed that there was a large white and asian population and a handful of black folk...actually i've noticed this a several hip-hop concerts...my friend actually got a chance to ask common, del, and mos def what they thought about this(but you'd have to ask her for details)

i was just curious as to why this occurs...are black people not as supportive? do they just not know? is it too far away? are asians and whites feeling hip-hop more than we are? i don't know, all i know is i want to see more black faces at concerts where the artists are positive and teaching a positive message about the black community in their words...but what do you think?
