Re: Jewisn rap?

[Eliezer Kaplan <zelwel...>]

Corporations don't care about good or bad- corporations are just looking for
returns on their investment and they invest in what they know they can sell.
Their are plenty of kids out there of all cultures who treat rap as art &
have made it their preferred vehicle of self expression. How does
corporations investing in what they can sell turn an entire genre into 'bad
art'?
