True.. But Hip Hop is rooted in Black Culture that's just the way it is.

When I think of Rock and Roll, Im thinking of white guys with long hair.   Its pretty easy for music to be associated with race.
When you say Rock & Roll, Jimi Hendrix is the first person I think of...
 
I think its dope. Despite the fact that it amounts to little more than a caricature the intent isn't malicious so it's all good with me. I love how they've embraced the idea of dark skin being as beautiful as white or pail skin.
 
yeah...i went there about a year ago and found it quite prevalent...

in osaka, reggae culture was pretty heavy.

exactly, its the way its perceived. if i told you a sizable proportion of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame of inductees were black (Michael Jackson, Etta Jmaes, Ray Carles, James Brown,Otis Redding, etc.) or that Chuck Barry was one of the first creators (if not the creator) of Rock and Roll, you would be as shocked as i was/am.

Might very well be the case – depends on what you've been exposed to.
That's how far hip hop has come.

That's why I don't know how to feel about hip hop culture representing black culture as a whole.

I guess if they're portraying it as a sign of admiration – more power to them.

i'm guessing it was said like that because hip hop culture was influenced created by black culture
