It's just what kids do.
We created an entirely new & unique genre of music (and art & dance) and it reflected who we were. We wanted to keep it that way. We had all seen various aspects of our culture get watered down and taken from us throughout history. We wanted to protect hip-hop from that same fate.
It might sound dumb or silly now (I'm 45) but I haven't forgotten what we thought we were trying to do and how it felt back then.
