it&#39;s not dead because half of the radio stations in the country play nothing but it! however I do think it is decreasing in popularity. And I couldn&#39;t be happier. Good riddance!

Hip-Hop is not dead because you do see glimpses here and there of true Hip-Hop heads and people that really live up to the name, but as far as what Hip-Hop truely is and what it is considered today...

Hip-Hop was started to inspire and educate not to dehumanize and make fun of people.
