Can Hip-Hop Help?
Not to long ago there was a special on MTV about hip-hop bringing young people together and talking about how hip-hop can help lead the young people to vote. Is that so?
Jay-Z, Eminem, P.Diddy, and many, many more Hip-Hop artist launched "Choose or Lose Presents: "Vote or Die!" you can read up on it at Jay-Z, Eminem Rally Hip-HopFans on 'Vote or Die' Special. But does it really work? Do young Hip-Hop fans really want to hear their favorite talk about politics , or do they want them to rap? As much as these celebrities are pushing 'Vote or Die' it should work.
This special was really dedicated to people who do love hip-hop and who live in those cities or whatever, that don't take politics seriously, especially in the HOOD. Jay-z said, "most of the hip-hop fans live in the urban areas and those are the areas that don't vote." Jay -Z said that the reasons for voting is for change, while Eminem's reasons are totally different. Eminem stated that the election is a way to express ourselves as voters as he expresses himself in his music.
I really don't listen to hip-hop, but I'm about tired of hearing about 'Vote or Die'. I kind of think that this would work, but it is always those knotheads that don't care. As much as this is being talked about I believe many young voters have a change of heart to vote.
P.Diddy is one of the main spokesmen that runs 'Vote or Die' and according to him, it is our choice this year. Hip-Hop has made a break through with "Vote or Due" for the simple fact that more then just urban people listen to, more then hoodrats, and project pimps... Suburban people listen to it, country people listen to it. Hip-Hop is mainstream America now days. Even politians have taken it to the head to get young peoples attention. I believe it will work.
