[...] On Oprah they kept showing the Tip drill video as an example of how women are disrespected. In the entire video I didn’t see not one bitch being forced to shake her ass or drop it like it’s hot. They looked like they were having fun. If you want rappers to stop portraying bitches like this, tell them bitches to stop auditioning for the part. Another example is the bitch in the picture I have up top. The site where I got it from doesnâ€™t even give her a name, they call her “white bikini”. This shit is crazy, that’s all I have to say… [...]

Its one more example of the roundabout of our coporate society. Blinded by those above us, theres more than one layer to any situation. If degrading and dehumanizing women is in the interest of record sales, its in the interest of rappers and labels alike to maintain the image in the interest of MONEY. Its capitolism that screws us up. Its the history of this countrys power over others, and its own citizens. Not only is it our right, its our repsonsibility to stand up against our government, music regulators, and analysts included, if it steers us wrong. Thats why forums like this are necessary. Just reading this, spreading this, talking this, making art about this, is fighting for the cause. Spread the love, spread the music, spread the knowledge. Cause “life without knowledge is death in disguise” - Talib and Mos

The same men on the panel missed the whole point too: Its about respecting females… Why’s Kevin talking about his son and Timmy and how the integrate?… The females are still being called hoes!…

Its funny how no one here mentioned the spellman ladies…

You guys are completely missing the point: no one is trying to destroy rap… Just why do all female references need tp be a hoe and a bitch? I undertand that these “poets” (no way im gonna consider Diddy, Joc or the Ying Yang twins poets) have had issues with females that deserved the name… But why do ALL females have to be hoes??

I’m a female. I go to school. I mind my business. I don’t mind others. I start no trouble. But still, if I go to a club, dressed APROPRIATELY, and I turn a man down, POLITELY… I’m a bitch, I’m a hoe, and all this shit.

These words in the rap game are just not always necessary. The words ladies and females can fit into these lyrics so easily. It’s not about destroying rap: Its about respecting ladies, because the MAJORITY women are not bitches and hoes……

From the famous Hip hop song
“Don’t push me cause I’m close to the edge, I’m try’in not to loose my head”
We’ve been pushed, and some of Hip Hop has lost it’s head and gone under.

i think i’ve said this a thousand times when it came to video vixens
dont blame men for the women acting like hoes, blame the fucking women
stop attacking men cause women spread they damn legs, and not only that
if a woman wants to spread her god damn legs, that her own fucking choice, who are they as women to say these group of women give them a bad image?
no one can give you a bad image, you give yourself a bad image, so to let what these women do become your portrait is only fucking yourself over.
Oprah is the most biased bitch on television, and i use the word bitch in the most demiening way, cause hse has no respect for any male white or black who’s on her show, as a journalist you are to be objective, and as someone aspiring to become a journalist, i have no respect for her craft, she sickens me to the bone marrow, and i hope one day someone will have the balls to put her shit on fucking blast
bitch needs to show N prove all the bullshit she promotes… when will she gets married huh? word is bon

WHY IS OPRAH SUCH A RUDE BITCH. When it Came TO letting the 10 some odd women panalist speak {which no one knows} she didn’t INTERUPT. tALK ABOUT RESPECT, SHE DOESN’T GIVE ANY, SO HOW DOES SHE EXPECT TO RECIEVE IT. Instead criticizing hip-hop and talking about what they (Oprah and friends) don’t want, they should be addressing what they do want. How are educated adults so stupid when it comes to finding solutions? Black people unsupporting of Black people, it like we still stuck in slavery

[...] Dat Oprah Winfrey geenÂ fan van hiphop is was al bekend dor het debacle rond Ludacris. Afgelopen weken is er in de VS een flinke rel ontstaan rond radiohost Don Imus die een dames basketball-team “nappy heade ho’s” noemde. Hij kreeg het verwijt een seksist en een racist te zijn maarÂ hij verdedigde zich door hiphop de schuld teÂ geven, rappers zeggen immers wel ergere dingen dan hij was zijn argument.Â Dit alles was de aanleiding voor een discussie bij Oprah maar deze keer gaf zij wel een aantal prominenten uit de hiphop-wereld de kans zich te verdedigen. De hele show is hier te zien. [...]

Hmm Oprah is corny. This whole IMUS thing is stupid. IMUS made a stupid ass comment. He’s not racist and if Al didn’t catch it no one would of cared. Its not like any of those girls listen to the IMUS show…. Dude got a bum deal. Everyone seems not to care of all the good he’s done. Yeah he doesnt need to work ever he has more money then hmm most. but still he got fucked over bad with making a stupid ass comment on the cuff while being his typical harsh self. Too many other people say shit and get a pass but god fucking forbid if some old white dude does LOL oh well

anyways.
