Hip Hop Culture

It seems that hip hop does have its faults, but it does have certain redeeming characteristics. While it does show all the violence, heartbreak, and potential death, it does show that someone can rise up from the streets to someone of power and influence. However, it does seem to make light of the subjects that hip hop is all about, namely violence and debauchery. It seems that it just wants people to hate to love  it and love to hate it.
