Rappers DO influence the youth.

Nas is a liar or is tryin to protect his business

Check the video again...

Nas admits openly that he is an influence to the youth, what he disputes is if his music, or music in general proliferates violence.

Good video.

The point he was trying to make is that because he raps about A, B, or C, doesn't mean kids are doing what they're doing because he dropped the song.

What about the Crusades? That was a blood bath for three centuries all over Europe... in the name of God.


Only weak minded fools run off and kill people because they heard 50 Cent on Blood Hound.

Rap is a product of the streets, not the other way around.

LOL wtf the Crusades?? you mix everything.


Of course one song from one album of one rapper cannot influence sbdy into doing something good or bad.

But when you got hundreds of rap Cds talkin about crack, gun shootings, gangbang etc etc you can be sure that it will influence people...

CO-SIGN^ I STARTED DOIN CRACK AFTER LISTENING TO DMX...LOL

NAW BUT SERIOUSLY VATO HAS A POINT. WHEN EVERY OTHER RAPPER IS TALKIN BOUT IT N "GLORYFING" IT, IT WILL MAKE AN IMPACT. KIDS HEAR THAT N THINK DATS HOW THEIR FAV. RAPPER "CAME UP" OR GOT ALL DA MONEY...ITS COOL TO TALK ABOUT IT IF U COVERIN BOTH SIDES OF DA STORY CUZ EVERY1 KNOWS THERE ARE VERY FEW REAL DEALERS WHO MAKE IT OUT DA GAME.
