Hip hop is a well known form of artistic expression it started back when the black citizens wanted to express how they felt about the world, how they got treated, what they are going threw and the pressure's some of them experienced when they where growing up and the state that the artist is in currently. these artists grew up in poor suburbs and most of them drop out of school to go to the streets and hustle money or an income for there families. they do some really un-orthodoxy's things to achieve wealth as the the living conditions are really dangerous for anyone to grow up in. Most of this artists grew up in a place they call the suburbs.
Contrary to popular belief rap or hip hop is a form of telling truth and nothing but the truth, this genre successfully executes the role of entertainment, but sometimes it gets out of hand when it comes to education as it has evolved that most artists nowadays just sing about sex, money, car's, clothes and hoes not that I wouldn't love any of these things but
it's like what does it teach our young one's on the other hand probably sex, money, car's, clothes and hoes are a good thing.
Some of this artists really spread a good message dare to listen?
