As a child this meant so much to me to see the Hip-Hop community come together and bring awareness to violence in our Black communities. Hip-Hop is really much more powerful than what people know. A voice that speaks can be a voice that's heard. Hip-Hop gives America the power to bring positive change for the better, Knowledge and Understanding brings about self empowerment that liberates humanity from self Destruction✊

Black on black violence/ crime is at an all time high! 80's and early 90's will always be hiphop at it's peak. Back when hiphop had a message to spread to our community!

The poor with 7 sins without discipline is a dangerous element that makes a degenerate known as a criminal. Without proper parenting good schools, a community of criminal out numbers the good in society. Without good community leaders, you have a bad community who don't help schools or parents. & a government that don't back up community leaders are not fit to lead. At what point blame is accepted or recognized? What is evident are the casualties in those areas that are being ignored. But there those that try. We all should fall in line to back them up. It's a shame that it's a small impact, but it a great impact. It's part of the solution...all of us should be apart of that to be a complete solution.

I like MC Lyte's light voice. I just found out recently that she was told to rap like a man when she was just starting out because her mentor or A&R at the time told her that her voice was too high pitched and light. Lil Kim and Foxy Brown had light speaking voices, too... I think female MCs should speak more in their natural voices. That's why I liked Shorty No Mass and Ladybug Mecca.. They had nice feminine voices and still sounded dope.

Here's the thing: a lot of the mainstream acts are only using Hip-Hop (or more accurately, a corporatized version) as a lottery, where they will do ANYTHING to cash out, with no regard to the culture of Hip-Hop. I call those rappers-there are also EMCEES, like the artists in this video, and folks TODAY who aren't mainstream, i.e., KRS-ONE, Rapsody, Tiye Phoenix, P.E., Paris, Sa-Roc, Staahr, Jasiri X, LinQue/Isis, Bahamadia, David Banner, & many more who don't completely get the respect they should. It's up to US to pass down the authentic manifestation down to our children, because depending on others to do that is futile. Peace.
