The whole idea that one has to be from the hood to be part of hip hop culture is plain stvpid. And what does one's religion have to do with hip hop? Jewish, Muslim, Christian, atheist etc. Pure foolishness. Also, why do I keep hearing "Canadian, Canadian, Canadian "? Do you 1d10ts k ow that the most popular sport among black people in America was invented by a Canadian? I never hear any Canadians saying Americans should stop playing or following it. Time to cut that silly talk.
