Savan states “simply put, white teenagers could not, as much as they might wish to, become black. They could and did however, listen to the music, dress the dress… mirror the haircuts, adopt the rap vocabulary suitable for their daily lives, mimic the cadence of street speech, and admire from a safe distance the lives of prominent black rappers and athletes.”(200) In that quote Savan illustrates black life in the “hood”, where the black slang originates from and how the white teens mimic it. The word “hot” is used in other slang meanings not necessarily deriving from the “hood”. This term is also used in poker games and sporting events. For instance, if a pitcher is having an amazing game he might be referred to as a “hot pitcher”.
The title of this is Hip-Hop’s Betrayal of Black Women by Jennifer McLune. This is all about hip-hop and how it affects black women including racism, sexism, genders, and different dimensions of the personal life. What hip-hop does to men and women and the intentions of hip-hop in society today, I think hip-hop is fun, and different.

Stapleton tells us that many believe the concern over sexual violence is not as big a concern of racial problems. Stapleton throws us the idea that many hip-hop artists felt that hip-hop was being considered objectionable because white youth were consuming it. Stapleton uses this to reveal where a large amount of criticism is coming from in both racial and genre issues. Stapleton brings up a gathering of hip-hop artists and rappers showing us that serious discussions were being had about the genre and the changes in it. We see in Stapleton’s words how hip-hop has become a dangerous genre and how responsibility lies in the artists, managers, record companies, and parents when it comes to the music.

According to data found on the Federal Budget website, we can see that medical care, national defense, and social security are the largest parts of expenditures of the U.S. government. As a member of the Congress, I would like to start reducing these three main expenditures. It is vital that we have a better medical care system.

Although the Black Mafia Family is not seen to have any political figures within their grasp, they have been able to gain some hindsight in the pop culture world, which in this day and age can be just as dangerous as those actually involved in politics. Although the majority of their drug running has come to a hold, they still live on the rap music that they have helped create, such as the likes of Rick Ross’s “Blowin Money Fast” Which on the album remains in its acronym form of “BMF” and mentions some of the major players with the organization “Big Beech” and “Larry Hoover.” As far as illicit actions from the Black Mafia Family, there are many allegations of various crimes that can be tied to their organization. The Black Mafia Family was seen as just a large violent group as they were drug kingpins.
