Hip-hop culture is deeply rooted in the wrong things. Hip-hop is about drugs right now. It's more so about drugs - about selling drugs, about using drugs - it's bad for kids.

You have to be able to differentiate between the different areas of life. It shows that we're all separate people, we're all different, but we're all the same.
