That's the difference between hip-hop and other genres,

No one can identify the uninformed until they voice their ignorance about a topic. Silence is a fool’s best friend. Sadly, he is often too foolish to realize it.

For so-called conscious rappers, it is an opportunity to rap about ways to educate others about African American history, politics and even relationships: all of which would be missed if society merely focused on the “hook” and ignored the influence.

The business of hip hop is probably the most tangible example of the genre’s dramatic maturation.

Much success to you, even if you wish me the opposite/ sooner or later we'll all see who the prophet is.

Hip-hop gave a generation a common ground that didn't require either race to lose anything; everyone gained.
