Is hip hop racist?

I think not, but why did so many black rappers adopt these
negative white stereotypes about blacks?
Did they feel so helpless?

when everybody says youre a bad mf, its easy to be a bad mf.
after all it may be a lot of fun to be a bad mf. especially
when youre on the bottom of society and it sells so good.

Do you think it's a coincidence that so many 'niggaz,
bitches and hoes' rappers also want to be actors?

So is hip hop racist? I as white person dont want to hear
other white (and probably black) peoples racist stereotypes
out of some black guys mouth?

havent got a clue in which direction this is going, been out
of the loop of mtv and so for a long time, but there used to
be a lot of conscious black music or rap practically free of
stereotypes. coincidentally i picked up a buckshot lefonque
cd today
while doing a virus check on pc. theres still a huge need
for black people to have their own identification. while
this can add some flavour i wouldnt mind if we all were a
little more the same.
its a bit sad when societies live within borders.

A genre can't be racist unless that is what defines it (i.e.
Nazi Techno). Certain artists may be racist though, which I
would assume occurs in all genres.

It's like with feminists, no one would listen unless they
expressed their views in a hostile way and forced people to
listen. Same with rap music and African Americans.

It's just that there is a similarity in that both felt/ feel
frustrated with their situation and decided the only way to
do something about it was something extreme and violent. Not
phyiscally violent, but with words and stuff.

You see?

Yah, identity is so important, yo. I'm Japanese, so when I
rap, I mostly be rhymin' about losing the war and origami:

outta 100 dolla bills, I be foldin' a crane
and like zero fighters, I be crashin' like rain
ya can't step to me, cuz I karate fight
luv bukkake in the morning, miso soup at night

theres no such thing as racism
fake thought crime made by marxists to overthrow the evolved
ruling class with morons
black people exploited by the left to create subtle
revolution
