I detest "sagging" which is a black cultural style among young black men that has been adopted by many white young men. I don't detest it because it is from black culture. I detest it because it looks incredibly stupid and is not practical and exposes ones butt or underwear when I don't care to see it.

I love a lot of the REAL music Black culture has given us like Motown, Jazz, the Blues, R&B, etc. Not to mention great Black gospel music.

I do realize that some of the things I don't like are generational and I allow for that. Especially when it comes to music (however rap is not music). I don't have tolerance for stupidity like sagging though.
"sagging" is dumb, and your objection is warranted, you have a reason...

But what is the reason poeple are objecting to stepping?? Is there any real merit to it? No. They don't have an argument, its just from a different culture, so they object...

and stepping is just as much a part of black culture as Jazz, Blues, & R&B...

and Rap is music, you just don't understand it }=o) I don't like gangster rap, no, because its dumb and vain and idiotic... But listen to TobyMac or John Reuben or GRITS, if you think that isn't musical, I would love to hear what music is...

rap is the natural progression of what James Brown started...
