Hip Hop 1


  • Record labels would rather promote stereotypical "gangster" rap music because it sells more units.

I agree with statement because the people who sell the music only focus on one thing,MONEY and if "gangster" rap sells and makes it. Record labels think why not promote it. A white person probally wouldn't care as long as there making business and business makes money, and in some ways the "gangster" rap music doesn't apply to them.

Quote::' "Who's making the decisions about what people see? Who's making the decisions about what gets the multimillion dollar contracts? and overwhelmingly, its not this is is no great secret overwhelmingly, its white men in suits who are making those decisions. And they are deciding,'This makes money, I'm gonna sell it. I don't care if its hurting people.' Who, who it's a business decision right?"
