Anu White parent who sends their child to a school largely populated by blacks is committing child abuse. I vomit when I see wiggas or any other whites enjoying gangsta rap.

One thing that always bugged me is that Black music has really devolved from the beautiful Do-Wop of the 1950's, the sensational soul of the 1960's and 1970's, the disco of the 1970's and the cool songs of the 1980's. I think with few exceptions, rap and hip-hop, took music back a great deal.

RAP is an acronym for regressive African poetry. I love the oldies and when my son is riding with me I always comment that the song playing was made when black people made good music. I have yet to find a young black kid who has heard of Sam Cooke. Unbelievable. The platters, drifters, four tops,Stevie Wonder, The coasters, the shirelles, the dixie cups, fats domino, little richard,CHUCK BERRY, leadbelly, I could go on for awhile. The music was great and to think it evolved into the garbage that is popular now. Talk about regression.

No kidding. I grew up with the awesome soul music, jazz, and funk of the 60s and 70s. The introduction of rap in the early 80s was the death knell of that once great art form.

I'm listening to Al Green right now, as a matter of fact.

I always considered rap to have originated in white culture. For your enjoyment and consideration I present Rock Island. ;-)
