That's been my concern for a while now, as African-Americans as a whole (I realize there are some exceptions) discarded rock, blues, and jazz, and I am concerned that we will discard hip-hop. I think a lot of it has to do with corporatization and "cooning for the camera". If hip-hop does achieve that state, I will still cop it and continue to support the artists that are striving to make meaningful musis
