VH1 & the rest of the media on a mission to kill hip hop... permanently.
So I guess this doesn't apply to those who think hip hop is dead, but for those of you who still have faith in the game, is it me, or does it seem like VH1 is on a mission to straight destroy hip hops name and bury it forever and bring rock to the top? "The White Rapper Show", "Miss Rap Supreme" "Flavor of Love..." What made them pick Flav? Because he acts straight coonish and he'll be sure to bring some embarrassment and shame to the game. But this dude on "Rock of Love" is portrayed as extra smooth and all suave and shit. Why did Three 6 Mafia win a Grammy? Because it was an opportunity for hip hop to fuck up. That's why. They were probably PRAYING for shots to be fired or a face to be caved in that night due to "violent rappers". Tell me this isn't all in my head?!
I've come to a realization that it's pretty obvious what they're doing. If shit like that shit continues, hip hop will become a joke to the main stream, and it will probably never be looked at the same again... Or even have a chance to be respected. Even though that would probably end a lot of bullshit and bring out the light in hip hop, it's fucked up to have your culture looked upon as a joke. VH1 is on that bullshit.
Again, I know a lot of you already feel like hip hop is a joke right now and I'm writing this in vane, but me personally, I feel like there's still some kind of level of respect for the game that can either be heightened or straight killed.
