by Dwayne Andrews (TONES OF SEDITION] The future of rap music, the only new form of music to emerge in the 1:980's, is in serious danger. Once regarded as music for street thugs and gangsters rap (or hip-hop has fought its way to prominence with lyrics that cover a wide range of topics. At one time it was believed that this style of expression would die out quicker than the hula-hoop did, but with multi- platinum albums and sold out concerts across the country, these views changed. The general populace began to accept hip-hop as refreshing change from the otherwise cookie cutter sounds of music in the past decade. Even though rap is more popular now than evar the industry is following a path that is sure to make it extinct. The demise of rap music is eminent and it would be a real tragedy if it occurred. One might wonder why this topic is being discussed in a space usually reserved for outrage against the politics of the "system." Understand this, rap is the most political form of music to be recorded since the 1960's and is the favorite with Black youth. These facts are the main reason why rap will be obliterated fully politically and economically if the rappers empowered been given Black youth a rallying point to and managers of our day do not we can not even control the fact that our focus on .
