there has been a constant recoil and backlash from the community regarding the presentation of blackness in popular culture and popular music especially. Books have been written about the objectification and commodification of black women in rap music. BET faced backlash for its promotion of stripper culture in videos like Nelly's "Tip Drill" followed up with the constant mocking of his famed "Pimp Juice" energy drink. People have made documentaries confronting the hypersexualization and hyperviolence of popular rap music and its effects on black youth culture. The artists who created this website made a video about the sham of mid 90s consumer culture and the crazy attraction to black youth dysfunction and gang culture in rap videos shown on shows like Yo! MTV Raps .

America has imported more warlord theocracy from Afghanistan than it has exported democracy.
