Hi, thanks for your concern. Since a portion of the email was directed at
me, I felt like I should address some issues, but I did not feel compelled
to address the entire body of the post. Partially due to a lack of
interesting, and time constraints

It was never intended to bring humor nor strife. I don't see why it is so
wrong to not like hip hop. Can you explain why everyone has to like it? Do
we all have to be the same?
I did acknowledge that if you look for the "underground material" you can
find some good stuff. I just don't care to focus my attention on hip hop.
I would rather look at other styles of music.
When someone used the rationale that not liking hip hop is an attack on
black culture, I asked if it was an attack on white culture to not like
rock. Seems like a silly argument...
I think it's perfectly acceptable to like or dislike whatever you want. It
doesn't have to be interpretted as disliking your fellow man.
Btw I think most rock sucks also.
There is good music coming out from all over the world, and race should not
be a determining factor if you like it or not.
