These niggroes are getting paid to talk that crap on their CDs. They don't have to stop using the B-word and the N-word because "that's what people say where I come from. Y'all don't know what it's like in my hood". BULLSH*T. Just because you may have heard that "in yo hood" doesn't mean you have to but into it. Elevate yourselves. Bill Cosby was right when he blasted black America for perpetuating ignorance and stereotypes. HEY Y’ALL – Hip-hop is all about entertainment!!!

You've summarized the majority of my personal sentiments about "many but not all" hip hop artists & the labels who are responsible for signing them & circulating their music with full knowledge of the lyrical content which is often mysoginistic, murderous & laced with the glamorization of criminal intent & actions. I make these statements as a citizen of humanity, as a woman, a wife & a concerned mother of a very young teen-aged male. My son understands that ALL words have impact. He understands that even a joke made at someone else's expense is coming from a heart of personal insecurity, cruelty & evil intent. No person is "perfect" & all people make mistakes... we, as citizens of this nation & this world must be more responsible for that which we say in addition to that which we do. Those who do not learn from the historical past are often destined to repeat it... Adolf Hitler kicked off mass genocide (the murder/extermination) of millions of Jewish people by beginning with a simple media campaign of written dehumanizing propoganda against them. It's looooong past time that we citizens of this nation take a good look at the issue of hip hop lyrics. It's ABOUT TIME we're finally having this dialogue collectively as a nation of human beings & I applaud Oprah's efforts along with anyone else who's seriously & responsibly examining this matter from a human perspective.

PEOPLE, although Hip-Hop is truely inspirational, and is helping to shape our culture, it is not to be used as a tool for life. I agree that it is for entertainment, but it's actually meant to MOVE a person. And inspire one's evolution. My idea of 50 cent is that he is semi-talented, lucky, lucky, lucky. Shot 5 times and lived to rap about it. Everyone thinks he's cool with his "Bling-Bling" and sh*t talk... but is that EVOLVING you? No. How ignorant, I mean IGNORANT can you be to label the things that Oprah talks about as "Middle-Aged White America?" Don't you realize, it's AMERICAN!!! She highlights SUCCESS. When the hell are we going to realize that "Success" has no color. We minorities LET IT! Only ignorant, LAZY minorities label issues like Charity work, Mortgage Payments, Credit/ Finance Interest Rates, Investment Opportunities/ Allocations, Retirement, G and PG Movies, Drunk Driving deaths, Wife Beating Husbands, Breast Cancer, Poverty and Epidemics in other countries, etc as WHITE topics. Good Lord! Does Oprah have to be talking about Bitches and hos to be accepted by Black America? Please tell me no. She's trying to educate people on the bottom about things that ARE within their grasp. EDUCATE yourselves... Evolve yourself. Trust me, I want to know about 12 year old African girls getting an education from Oprah Winfrey, rather than getting sold into Slavery (yes it still happens), or KILLED IN ETHNIC CLEANSING CIVIL WARS; than about 50-Cent the CRACK DEALER who Literally shot to the top rapping about cool cars, ice and big booty ho's! 50, I'm not rich, but RESPECT the people that made it possible for you to even dish the crap you rap about. RESPECT!!!! As an African American woman, I must say, aside from my mother, Oprah Winfrey is an AMAZING entity. She is not perfect, but she concentrates on MORAL HUMANITARIANISM. And correct me if I'm wrong... but THAT'S what it's all about. Kudos to Nas for saying what I just said in about 5 sentences at the Billboard Awards. Now THAT man knows Hip-Hop, and Maternal respect. Out... You see, I don’t even know if this will be seen, but I actually hope it is.

How are you truly dicussing whether or not nigga should not be use. they don't know what it means to be black and Vice Versa. it seems to me she and alot other celebs spend so much money on other countries when we need to take care of the U.S. ok oprah has done alot for the black peole , But waatching her show you wouldn’t think it. the Audience is filled with mostly white people.
