Okay now that's out of the way, would you like to address several of these comments directed at you and Lurker that were ignored? 

There isn't anything worth addressing. All of those posts had the message "I don't like your view of hip-hop and rap music," but nothing of substance to dispute said view.

Said view could easily be extended to musicians as a whole, because the vast majority of musicians doesn't care much about politics. In this case hip-hop and rap were singled out because that's the music Kanye West makes. If you have a problem with that, talk to LurkerJ about it, because I merely explained what his post meant when you asked about it.

You choose to be offended without even having watched the speech. I already asked you to read the responses in this thread, many of which deemed the speech to be not even remotely close to amazing. If you don't like what has been said about hip-hop and rap, then you have to provide examples of such musicians who really have a clue about politics, because otherwise there's no reason to believe that hip-hop and rap are somehow exceptions to how music and musicians are in general.

King of subterfuge
