A Unofficial Anthropology of Hip Hop

Gangster rap made me do it

"Joe Scarborough degradingly referred to rap music, is somehow influencing white kids to be racist. The reasoning seems to be that because rappers like Waka Flocka Flame use the n-word, it’s no surprise that white people repeat it. Completely tone-deaf, they don’t acknowledge that: 1) white people don’t need to be a part of the conversation over how the people they continue to oppress should use a word that refers to their oppression 2) the context in which the n-word was used—the fraternity is derogatorily using the n-word and even references lynching (though one guest did try to make that distinction)."
