violence in hip hop is also quite a horrible thing and i think it contributed to the downfall of hip hop, and even though they were somewhat great rappers, pac and brought it to the point that it was cool to have a gun and kill people, when at the same time they were talking about respiration in black communities and how the young black youth needed more of a positive upbringing, i mean it's fine to talk about the shit you experience every day and the bad stuff you went through, but once you take it to the point in which you are rich and famous and are talking about murder and promoting it something is really wrong
