This one goes out to everybody who thinks that all those garbage rappers on the radio are hip-hop. As my good friend Clayton said "Lil Wayne, Soulja Boy, Jim Jones, etc. THAT my friends, is not Hip Hop." This video explains that what's happened tho hip-hop is tragic, it used to be about partying, and getting your thoughts out, not "Guns, Champaigne, and Women" as the video says. Now don't get me wrong, every now and then i do listen to some of the aforementioned type of music, but that's not what this is about, this is about clarifying to everybody what real hip hop is, about letting everybody know, that there's more to it than you could have ever thought

"White executives who own the company pick, and white executives"
Lupe Fiasco
"And black executives...everybody's responsible"
For all you who think that it's just "The White Man", no, it's everybody, everybody who promotes that shit, and everybody who helps put it out, be it white, black, asian, hispanic, this isn't about color, and thinking that it is, is just as bad as abiding to it.
If you guys have anything to say about this feel free to drop a comment.
Props to Optimus for the video
