Why do rappers have no respect for "B1TCHES and HOES? they are people too?

I have no idea, really. Maybe they think it's what makes them "Gangsta". Or maybe the bitches and hoes are just members of that sex not deserving any respect. Frankly, I have no idea, let's just leave them to it.

I am black and i use the term nigga. I could be talking to a white person.....It really doesn't matter. But basically black people turn that word from something negative to something positive. Symbolizing that since black people use it while talking to each other that it has lost the powerful meaning it once had as an insult, and now basically means dude,bro,etc. But that all changes when a white person says it because they first used it as a word to put black people down and insult them. Although i really don't care if somebody calls me that unless they are using it in an offensive way, because I'm cool with people from all races.

What kind of question is that?!?!?!People that don't have any respect are not always "ghetto acting".There are a lot of people who act ghetto that have nice cars.I have a ghetto family and they have nice cars and a house.Having a nice car should'nt be a reason for having respect it should be how you show it.Atleast they have a car!!!

Not all rappers do drugs,your stereotyping them as a whole. In some cases what they rap about is not their actual lifestyle, it just sells so they rap about it.

I think it's a double standard due to the fact that rappers say the "N" word (No I don't use it!!) every other word!! And you hear all these little hip hop clowns refer to themselves as it again every other word...I have no problem with the fact that he snapped and called them something they probably refered to themselves as all day long anyway....It was the comment that precipitated it\n\n"If it was 50 years ago you'd be hanging upside down with a fork in your a*s" That blew my mind...\n\nSomething like that just doesn't roll off your tongue unless you've thought about it before..That was unbelievably offensive and crossed every there was to cross in my mind!! The dudes career has been dead for years. So I can't even say he buried himself with that comment...But he sure let people know where his mind lies..He's racist no if's ands or buts about it.

for Chris W. Im black and I find that comment very rude. I answered a question like this before and my statement still stands. People no matter who they are sometimes dont like change or is afriad of change. Me personally I like everything from T.I to Maroon 5 to Green day to Kelly Clarkson back to Alicia Keys. Im black and i dont just limit myself to certain things. And for those who do limit themseleves you cant knock them for being who they are.

You can't dance to it. I hate rap with all of my heart. Some people may think you rambled on a bit, but I agree with every word you said. Rap is just talking fast about things that we don't need to hear. My Humps is a good example because it is crude beyond belief, is annoying and is still a big hit. Why? Because there are enough unintelligent and dumb people out there who think swearing, backed by an incessant beat, is cool. Give me a break.

Try look up Eminem and 50 Cent lyrics.\n\nWhat Habin8or said was completely unacceptable! I do know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but recently I have been seeing a lot of people being unfair to the rap and hip-hop genre. People are going around talking like the music is pure shit and it's not! Rap and hip-hop is just another expression of feelings and actions through music.

Interesting topic. It's just a part the African American culture over exploited if I might say. I don't even have to listen to it to hear it or see it. I can walk outside and look at how some of these females dress, talk and act. I really don't need to listen to the radio or watch a video to have it shovelled into my head. I hear guys call each n***a every day all day. What amazes me about the word n***a is how they use it so freely, but get offended when a White person says it. It still holds the same meaning as it did back then. Then you have these females who under dress themselves to get attention or because they think it's cute and get offended when a guy calls them a b***h or a hoe. It's doesn't work that way. Way degrade yourself and get mad when you're called out on it? Why is ok for me to be called n***a or call you n***a but if "the man" says it, he's being racist? \n  Gangsta rap is just basically like telling a story. It's all about what's happening in the urban, ghetto community. But people get thrown back by it because they don't know about the struggles or lifestyles in these areas. What they get out of it is what is portrayed in music, videos and other media. If I was ignorant to what was going on in the world, it would seem meaningless to me too. \n  I do have to admit, being Black myself, gangsta rap can be a bit harsh, but that's the reality of the world we live in today. I grew up in the ghetto and I've only witnessed a few harsh things in that lifetime. I'm just glad to say that even though I was raised in the projects, I didn't let the environment dictate that as my way of life.

Well, the problem happens when you start talking to people as groups rather than individuals. The singers of these lyrics do not represent "The Black Race" as a whole. Neither is there some monolithic group of "Liberals" who are all the same and all believe the same thing. Condemning lyrics you don't believe in makes sense, but you can't take that as having some kind of global implications for race relations. It's unfortunately a lot more complicated than that. The same way the rap singers are generalizing about "America's white boys."

The rap and hip-hop music is apart of their culture. Those things such as *pimping/huslting have really happened to these people. They have  SEEN the violence and HEARD the PROFANITY. If rockers can say what is on their mind in their music than so can BLACK PEOPLE. And we have the right of freedom of speech. YOU CANT destroy black culture. AND BLACK PEOLE arent the only rappers. PAUL WALL>>>>EMINEM. They are rappers becuz they have seen the 1)sex, 2)drugs, 3)violence, 5)Profanity[too much] 4)Hustling/pimping, 5)Acting "tough" and all that crap. THEY KNOW THE REAL WORLD. PEople singing about stuff that isnt real is why people chose hip-hop and rap music!

I think the closed minded people form preconformed ideas that were passed down to them either by parents or cliques, or simpley made up in their own head for who knows what reason.\nSome people it's a simple as they don't like the music, the music video or style of dress,or they need to make fun of people who do not dress like them.\nSome people have personilty flaws,and like to hurt people on purpose,(weather or not they like the style secretly or not) so they act like jerks who and critize and condemn.\nThey have preconcieved ideas of what that "type" of clique is like.  \nWho knows maybe the skaters and goths ects say they same about rappers and cowboy ect who knows.\nJudging someome based on apperance or likes is normaly a pretty shallow thing.And most of the time isn't true what we think in our head.(Don't get me wrong trust your instenticts) But will all know that I hope. \n \n Bottom line is self expression is a beautiful thing that makes us who we are as an invidual. And if we let the comments and veiws of others make us want to conform to something diffrent then that is way messed up!We are the ones looking in the mirror and we have to live with what looks back at us. \n  \nHell there are good bad,&psycho killers, ranging from nuns to Manson, Emeniem,Garth brook, American idol,Americas next top model, wanna be's, or any type of person.\n \nIt bugs be that people are so conformed to their own ideas that they think just because they look different from there idea of what a model citizen is that they are a hoodlum. heck I hate labels but theres good in bad in everything ranging from your honor student to drop out. there's nerd who are troble makers and gothic/punks that are honor studentsand vs vs . \n \nPeople need to stop judging based on ones apprence like the saying goes don't judge a book by it's cover.But we all know there's always gonna be conversery in self expression and being who we are.\n  \nHonestley it there loss that they are missing out a probley a good thing. If they don't like you blow it off they are not worth it.I know easier said then done.\n \nThey way I see is you are the only one who has to live within your skin as long as you can look in the mirror and be happy with the reflection staring back you that is all that matters in my hummble 2 cents. \n(Sorry spell check is down.)
