"hip hop is black music"
hip hop is "whats rightfully ours" etc...

hip hop was a culture created by new york city YOUTH, of many nationalities. alot of hispanics and whites (especially with the graffiti thing) were down from the very beginning. hip hop was never a "black thing." to be more truthfull, hip hop should be called a new york city thing. or perhaps a "ghetto thang", or even an inner-city thing. instead of wondering why whites or asians are feeling hip hop, lets ask why suburbanites feel hip hop? or why country-fied folk feel hip hop?
