gangsta rap made me do it

I am a prophet?

Probably not, just someone who cares more than enough to observe for a purpose. I said pretty much everything Ice Cube is saying in this song in a my Final paper for American Cultures 201 my freshman year in college. My thesis was that 'hip hop' is a positive influence on American society and my second hypothesis is that gangsta rap has a necessary place in our culture. Its the musical manifestation of the ugly side our world. It represents the subculture that transcends just ghettos but reaches in the mainstream in the footage he shows in this video.

Thanks cube, for verifying that my B+ should have been A. That was the first time in school I wrote a paper on something I wanted to express myself for more than a good grade.

Even though most music sucks nowadays, Ice Cube is still the OG. And coming from the West Coast on a political tip, i think its been a long time coming.
