"ALPHA DOG" White Boys HiJack Hip Hop

Next year as Justin Timberlake accepts his Oscar, and thanks the "brilliant" screenwriter and director Nick Cassavetes for "creating" such an amazing and meaty role, as the critics rave about the deep cultural authenticity and ferocious energy of the story's characters, as academics write papers on the revealing social commentary of this film, as Oprah gives a standing ovation to Timberlake and cast, and then proceeds to CRY when the trailer is played - I hope handkerchief head Plantation Negros everywhere realize this aint nothing but a hijacking of Hip Hop.

10 years from now Plantation Negros will pay Ivy League schools $95K per year to teach Hip Hop to their daughters.

Hip Hop is black America's HBO. From documentaries to Real Sex IX. Neither all "good" nor all "bad". Simply a media asset. What we do with it is the question.
