Hip-Hop is the way we see the world


Chang believed that hip-hop has come to be the way an entire generation sees the world.  I enjoy listening to hip-hop and agree with his theory.  Decades ago hip-hop was used by gang banger's to send messages to their rivals or to rebel against the police or government.  Hip-hop music in most cases is used as a form of expression and speaks for the people without a voice.  It is now considered a culture all on its own and has transformed the point of views of mainstream music lovers.  It was amazing to see the large involvement of hip-hop artist in Obama’s 2008 and 2012 Presidential campaign.  Their stance on their election was just to “Vote; Doesn't matter who you vote for, but your vote will make a difference."
