Its common knowledge that wearing your pants low is a sign to men that you’re “ready”.

God knows she is sending that message loud and clear.

It isn’t even about being unsightly. It’s about being RESPECTABLE.

Dress like a ho, get treated like one.

Time we started demanding people act - and that includes looking - like ladies and gentlemen.

Half the problem with “black males” being discriminated against is because they look like dregs and thugs. By the way THEY DRESS, which THEY CHOOSE.

When blacks are all dressed up in their business clothes I am not afraid.

in life walking around with his pants around his ass

A broken clock can be right twice a day. That having been said, think what image presents itself when these kids hunch over with their pants below their ass. Baboons in a zoo, with their buttcheeks exposed. Swinging around to hip-hop, getting free meals and hanging around every day, somedays flinging poo because, well just because they can. The rest of us work and are productive, and smile and laugh at the zoo animals with their pathetic lives.

It depends upon if you’re auditioning for a condom ad. You may enjoy that pic but that is not a “classy lady”.

Hip hop is cheap to produce. Remember when Fleetwood Mac’s “Tusk” album cost over a million dollars to produce back in the early 80s?

Hip Hop artists are mostly disposable, and make quick bucks for record companies, that’s why they love the genre.

Well, actually, racism has done a HUGE amount of damage to minorities in the last 10 years. And I’m not talking about racism on the part of white people.

Big pimpin’ producers made gullible youths their b@tch.

More money, more money, more money.

And the big pimpin’ producers then give $$$ to the DNC and are welcomed as one would greet a head of state.

Hop Hop is not the problem just as Rock & Roll was not a problem.

There's a reason that so many rock stars died by the time they turned 27.

It messed up FM radio too.

It messed up the retail musical instrument business too. Nobody needs to learn to play anymore. They just get recording/editing software and some other apps/tech gear and that's that.

That's one reason why Guitar Center is going out of business.

As one commenter at that site said (sarcastically, but he had a point): With Apple Loops, who needs musical instruments anyway. So much trouble to learn to play, when I can just Google/Youtube what I need to know. Music teachers are a real PITA and make you listen to boring music like Miles Davis or Bach, making me learn some stupid scales and theory. And when would I have time for Twitter and Facebook and hanging out in chatrooms. Besides, DJ's make the music **and** the money nowadays and I can just Torrent download those apps for free!

It’s not “hip-hop” as a music genre. It’s acceptance of violent thugs as music stars.

Well, at least it beats dreaming about being an NBA player!

To become an NBA player, you must work on your court game.

To become a rap star, you have to work on your street cred and then game the courts.
