OH Hip Hop Presents:
The Story Behind Rap
And Gangs



OH Hip Hop
Gangs and Hip Hop music has always been
affiliated in conversations about both. A lot of people
believe that Hip Hop is completely responsible for
the rise in gang violence since Hip Hop was
founded. Some people believe that gang activity
influences many Hip Hop artists. While Hip Hop
lyrics and gang activity have been linked together
over the years, they are not as closely related as
some may think. The Game, Lil Wayne, and Snoop
Dogg are a few of the very popular mainstream
artists that do actually have ties with street gangs.



OH Hip Hop

Gangs are usually blamed for most of the violence in
the inner cities in America. The most significant gangs
exist in large cities and usually include people of
minority backgrounds. The majority of popular Rap
musicians are of a minority background. Gang
members often listen to Hip Hop and dress in the
urban clothing style, which is what Hip Hop musicians
usually wear. Rap music has been known to contain
violent lyrics related to gang activity. So, is it true that
Hip Hop is responsible for violent gang activity?



OH Hip Hop
Gangs have been established many times before
anybody ever thought of Hip Hop. Why haven't
people realized this fact? People may know
that, but they believe that Rap is responsible for
making gangs even more violent. I don't believe
that music is powerful enough to make
somebody perform violent actions. However, I
believe that gang activity has an influence on
many Hip Hop artists.



OH Hip Hop
Many of the popular musicians today grew up
in the inner city. As long as they have been
alive, they have been effected by gangs in some
way or another. Emcees have the tendency to
portray their life story on an instrumental. If
they lived in the ghetto, then they are definitely
going to talk about the things they did, and
seen, when they lived there.



OH Hip Hop

Rap music gets an unfair blame when it comes to
violent crimes performed in the inner city. The truth is
that Rap music doesn't make anybody do anything,
especially violent things. It may talk about violent
crimes but that doesn't make people commit them. The
blame should never be placed on music. Many popular
movies show drug abuse. If Hip Hop can be blamed
for gang violence, then why aren't movies blamed for
drug use? That analogy shows how ridiculous this
blame is that Hip Hop constantly has to deal with.
