It’s far from positive. Like the other person said…..crime, drugs. That’s not positive. And it’s a bad thing that it influences the community. I sure don’t want people in my community to be influenced by that.

its not really positive
it can be informative
well some rap. tell whats going on in the world.
kanye wests freestyle of throw some d’s has some pretty good real life stuff he talks about that is pointless in the world.
in the hip hop world, bboying is kinda positive because it takes time away from kids dealing with gangs and stuff and learning to bboy.

I don’t see how points A & B are positve. All I see is people who are into hip hop, are generally are destined to fail in life.
Hip hop just gives people something to do with out getting a job and contributing to life
