The hip hop in the Afrocentric era was IN RESPONSE to the ravaging of the hood. The good it did is only knowable if you could somehow measure what would happen in our community had we not had afrocentric hiphop. It did SOME good but how much.. ? Beats me, some is better than none though.


Quick question, do you think twerking in music had anything to do with twerking going mainstream and around the world? If so, what's the difference? Influence is influence.
