Sure it may be that, but why do these people acquire these types of spending habits? The answer is simple as a 9 letter word that starts with e and ends with n.

Things for free? Don't have to work? Trust me, even the bottom feeders work. They don't work full-time, but they put in hours in Food Service and Hotels.

Act like idiots? Sure, but that can be said for the bottom feeders of any racial group.

Are they dragging down the reputation of our culture as a whole? Sure they are, but I'll tell you what I personally experience as a black person:

Let's say i'm on my way to a job interview. I get there, and at first, the interviewer(white) is usually a bit skeptical, but they see that i'm fully qualified and have a lot to offer, they usually open up and realize that he doesn't fit the stereotype that I envisioned about these people for years.

There are ways to overcome sterotypes.

Commercial rap music? Yes, yes it is....

Anybody with a brain could tell that much.

Yes, it is indeed a part of the problem. Unfortunately, we as minorities are puppets of the music industry, and exploit our own women(and now women of other races as well) as bitches, hoes, sluts, etc., and we sell drugs to our peers to buy studio time.

This is exactly why I haven't bought a Rap CD in over 7 years, and if a friend wants it, i'll be more than happy to bootleg it for him with a nice case and label for $5 .
