Just because you're from down South, don't mean you have to support everything coming from there.

Some of yall just support these clowns because they're from the South....and no other reason.

It becomes a territorial thang and you just support them regardless of whether or not they're doing themselves and their people a disservice.

I'm from the Midwest but I still acknowledge that the East Coast produces the best rappers because thier cosmopolitan environment gives them more things to rap about.

When a writer wants inspiration...he moves to New York.

But that's besides my main point.............

The point is there is talent all over America, but SOME of these Southern rappers are purposely being exploited just to make fools out of them and disgrace the race.

Just like when East Coast rappers started getting too political, the focus of Hiphop was moved from the East Coast to the West Coast and it started becoming "gangsta" and promoted the criminal element.

Well when rap started getting too political on the West Coast, the focus had to be shifted again...this time to the South where it became "dirty" and grimy.

Monkey acting and funny talking.

The plan is to clown Black folks and make them look so primitive and repulsive that their music and presence will no longer be tolerated.

That's why groups like Dru Hill and 112 are no longer being promoted.

No more Jodeci or BoyzII Men groups......they had too much talent and soul.....people loved them and worshipped their abilities.

You don't hear real soulful Black music much on the radio today....all of it is the same hypnotic nasty sounding crap over and over and over again.

Black music has been steady deteriorating for the last 30 years only because the radio and what they're playing on it is influencing the youth who aren't able to properly select what they want to hear and are at the mercy of these airwaves.

The industry doesn't want real Black talent out thier any more.

They like Black music but they don't want to see it being done by Black people, they'd rather see White artist with talent get the fame.

So what they do is promote Black artists like Rihanna or Akon or Sean Kingston or Macy Gray....weak wack artists who obviously have no talent. If they can get about 90% of the Hiphop artists to run around in baggy pants and long white t-shirts....absolutely no style, talent, or rhythm.....

Then they can glide in a Justin Timberlake or Robin Thicke who dancing down the aisle in a suit with all types of graceful moves to charm the ladies and make the fellas sit back in thier seat and say
"Damn....them White boys can sang!!"

Then their mission is accomplished.
