Somewhere between 1988 and 2012, the execs over at the Hollywood round table (include BLACK execs TOO!!!) lost faith in their black audiences and replaced thoughtful television with the bullshit you see on TV now.
No more Cosby.
No more Different World.
No more Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
Instead, we can look forward to...

About Hip-Hop
thehuskybro:
I love Hip-Hop with exceptions…
as a music genre, love it
as the defining factor of Black American Culture…no
as the spokesperson(s) for Black America…no
Let’s be real, (no not B-Real from Cypress Hill) Black America is much, much, MUCH more than Hip-Hop. To say that it isn’t? Well that’s very white of you, very narrow-minded of you, very wrong of you.
