What is Wrong with Hip Hop?

Nas named his album, Hip Hop is Dead, to open eyes and ears. But it stuck with people, and now folks are saying: "Hip Hop really is dead", "Hip Hop's been dead", "Hip Hop is in a state of emergency", "Hip Hop ain't dead, she's just MIA right now", "Hip Hop ain't dead; it's gone digital"... just a whole bunch of shyt. Shows like Hip Hop vs. America (BET) opened up dicussion amongst Hip Hop's elite and the influential Black people of the country to express concerns and disagreements, try figure out what the issue(s) is/are, and agree on how we [all] might "fix" it/them. But even they couldn't really narrow down what's going on because they couldn't really agree on what's wrong. So... if you are (or aren't) a fan of Hip Hop, and you feel that thare's something (or several things) wrong with Hip Hop right now, speak your mind here (and maybe you could even find a solution... regardless of whether or not you think people will go through with it). ~Vote & Discuss~
