hip hop 1

I agree that rappers who talk about violence and the streets are just reflecting the violent American culture that we live in because american culture has always had bad things happen and now its getting worst. I kind of know 1st hand whats its like 2 lose a homeboy 2 gang and street violence. The quote I have 2 bak up why i agree is..."We're like in this box, and in order to be in that box, you have to be tough, you have to have a lot of gurls, you gotta have money, you gotta be a player or a pimp, you know you gotta be in control. You have to dominate other men, other people, you know. If you are not any of those things, then, you know, people call you soft or weak or a pussy or a chump or a fagget, and nobody wants to be any of those things. So everybody stays inside the box." I choose this quote because to me it basically means that if you not in that box then you would mad fun of or possably get hurt for messing wit someone who is considered to be in the box. Even people in the box have to try to dominate other people who are in the box to try and stay on top.
