Since Imus everyone is putting on their armor and taking aim at hip hop. Last time this happened Rudy Giuliani cemented his career by locking up blacks with the use of the RICO Law. If hip hop dosen't begin policing ourselves and checking one another, hip hop will never be the same as we know it. </description></item><item><title>re: Auckland Politician Attempts To Cancel Ice Cube Performance</title><link>http://allhiphop.com/stories/news/archive/2007/08/06/18366977.aspx#18368226</link><pubDate>Mon, 06 Aug 2007 17:21:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:18368226</guid><dc:creator>BayBOI</dc:creator><description>@What More Can I say &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I disagree. What hip-hop has to do is start to go INDEPENDENT. When you fool with the majors and depend on selling a lot of records...you will feel the hate so much more and feel the pressure to be edited and compromise yourself. If you are Independent an remain Black Owned and Brand what you do...hatred can't stop you, it will only fuel you. Rap music can't be stopped dogg. Don't compromise it's voice.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We agree that change must begin, but f**k holding your tongue. They want us to shut up, but last time I checked, they wasn't trippin on what goes down on these streets. Don't be fooled by the Uncle Tom's telling cats to hate on rap mayne...it's about getting these streets improved and getting ALL Black people to a better place. This hating on rap ish is gone separate the street ni**as from the Bougy ni**as and it's fittin to be field ni**a vs. House ni**a's all over again.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A House divided can not stand.</description></item><item><title>re: Auckland Politician Attempts To Cancel Ice Cube Performance</title><link>http://allhiphop.com/stories/news/archive/2007/08/06/18366977.aspx#18368714</link><pubDate>Mon, 06 Aug 2007 18:34:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:18368714</guid><dc:creator>Hurikane $hark</dc:creator><description>Man it seems no matter what good things black people do they always find a way to replace it with the bad</description></item><item><title>re: Auckland Politician Attempts To Cancel Ice Cube Performance</title><link>http://allhiphop.com/stories/news/archive/2007/08/06/18366977.aspx#18368716</link><pubDate>Mon, 06 Aug 2007 18:34:49 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:18368716</guid><dc:creator>Hurikane $hark</dc:creator><description>Man it seems no matter what good things black people do they always find a way to replace it with the bad</description></item><item><title>re: Auckland Politician Attempts To Cancel Ice Cube Performance</title><link>http://allhiphop.com/stories/news/archive/2007/08/06/18366977.aspx#18370047</link><pubDate>Mon, 06 Aug 2007 21:55:12 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">0ab0b95d-286f-42d5-ba9b-6086957539ea:18370047</guid><dc:creator>LTBROWN</dc:creator><description>@BOSS UP&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;YOU SAID IT ALREADY.
