We know what effects hip-hop had on us and our peers back then. It's not much different than the effect it has on kids today.

They said this same bullshit back in the mid-80s. They said it again when "gangsta rap" got big in the 90s. They said it again when hip-hop videos were nothing but big asses, expensive cars & champagne. They're going to say it again about the next generation too.
