Hip-Hop is Dead!

I don't agree with that. Rappers attempt to convey themselves as murderers, drug dealers, etc.. in their work, the same as actors. If you think rappers with their $100M record deals are out on the streets selling crack to earn a couple thousand a week, you're crazy. They are exactly the same as other celebrities, ever watch cribs, reality shows, and so on? If someone isn't going to be afraid of running into Kevin Spacey in a dark alley but is going to fear for their life if they see Lil Wayne... it's probably going to be because he's black. Would they be scared if it was Eminem in that alley?

True, James Earl Jones isn't shooting actors but rappers aren't shooting rappers either that I'm aware of. They feud like any other people. There aren't countless rappers that have been killed by psychotic fans and they aren't the only ones with stalkers, obsessed fans and so on, actors have them too. They also don't goto prison more that I'm aware of. It's just more publicized, because people want to hear those things to confirm that rap is indeed the downfall of the civilized world.
