How the fuck does a suburban upper middle class kid with a BMW relate to some guy from the hood who potentially knows no dad and has a prostitute for a mom? What exactly do you have to be angry about? How much drug dealing have you seen? How many drive-bys have you been a part of? How many friends have you lost to violence?
Try driving your 335 down the streets of compton bumping your hip hop with your hat turned to the side and see how well received you are LOL I dont think you will garner a lot of respect from the people in the areas where hip hop was born.
Oh, BTW, hows France in the summer?

So True, how can you relate to hustling the streets on a corner till 5am in the morning...
