Don't you do some video work? :-D
I certainly agree that rap gives the wrong image. My cousin is hearing impaired...yet he always writes about being a PIMP, and I read one of the raps he wrote, even though it's not written like a hearing person would write it...because he learns American Sign Language which is kind of backwards english...his general rap was talking about living in the ghetto, being a pimp, have 6 or 7 girls on his arm, guns, all that negative stuff he see's on BET. And he can't even hear. He's about 17yrs old...this is the kind of image our youth has to look forward to or believe is glamours. No one talks about the struggle of getting a college degree on a HBCU campus and it can be a struggle or the importance of having knowledge. Alot of you black males tend to think, "if I just have a nice car with some 20inch rims, and tinted rims, then I got something. Never mind they are living from pay check to pay check or not having an honest job as long as the outward image is portaryed with the finer things of life...why do I talk like this...b/c I'm very close to my guy cousin they think like this. Just wanted to let ya know I do agree.
Best wishes,
