    In his essay, The Hip Hop Nation. Whose is it? In the End, Black Men Must Lead, Toure defines the complexity and selectivity that associated with the hip hop nation. I like his writing style, in the begging of his essay when he said that no map maker would respect this nation because it has no fixed boundaries, no physical land, no single chief, and no exact date of origin. Rather, hip hop nation is a state of mind.…

The sense of frustration and urgency expressed is so great that at times Singleton's characters seem to mount invisible soapboxes to address the audience directly and shake some sense into them.

Singleton quietly observes that “films serve different purposes, some are meant just to entertain, but there's also room for other films that inform as…

    The land of equal opportunity is not so equal for people from certain economic and social standings. Poor people are not criminals; however, many times, circumstances outside of one’s control force people into criminal activities. When one lives their life on a battlefield, they learn to do what they must in order to survive-- whether that means stealing in order to eat, selling drugs in order to make money, or being involved in a gang in order to survive. John Singleton’s Boyz n’ the Hood (1991) accurately shows how hard it is for a person to escape an impoverished lifestyle when they are born into poor circumstances. People who live in low income neighborhoods hold a strong resentment towards people who live more affluently due to want--…

    Hip hop is a cultural movement that began its journey during the early 1970s, among African American young children’s residing in the South Bronx in New York City.

    Tricia Rose’s “The Hip Hop Wars” commences and entitles the first chapter as “Hip Hop Causes Violence.” Before furthering on with the chapter, one may intuitively develop a bias supposition that what is titled is based on an actual fact without having any valid evidence to prove why it is the way it is.
