NEW YORK, Sept. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Hip-hop culture and controversy have always made for familiar bedfellows. Yet, in the wake of the Imus controversy and in a year when the genre's sales have tumbled, hip-hop finds itself under an exceptional amount of scrutiny and pressure -- and the stakes have never been higher. BET NEWS takes a powerful and compelling look at the state of hip-hop today in a three-part series titled HIP HOP vs. AMERICA. Hosted by BET's own Toure and Jeff Johnson, this special showcases a candid, heated forum that will allow audiences to hear the opinions of prominent leaders in the hip-hop industry, the political realm, academia and the Black church

thanks.

you acting nelly hasnt made bangers before?... tipdrill was a song tha was made ages ago
nelly do make tracks that have a sick beat and ill lyrics on
i give you credit on the fact that people dont buy propa hiphop culure music now a days but you gota see in nellys point of view .. he might make a single which is commerical but the hole album leading to a serious album ....
lupe fiasco done the same ... superstar was a lil comerical song but
same with nas he made the banger hero to sell out but the album is a very serious album and as we all know nas is a conscious rapper... ice cubes albums was the same aswell
Oh, and superstar wasn't as commercialized or dehumanizing as Tip Drill, whether his album was serious or not, which I doubt.
making club bangers
like hot in herre they are club bangers
hero and superstar was not club bangers and tbh i am a big nas and lupe fan but at making club music they are nowhere near as good as nelly
thats y i hate humans so slow wot come to the truthr
