That is unlikely to happen.
African American rappers and their "thug" lifestyle is the source of great business for the business world. Imagine our culture without those images.
The whole [gangsta, thugz, whatever you want to call it] lifestyle evolves around the teenager and young adult category.
Rap music has a large percentage of CD sold in the United States.
Apparel brands are a huge market.
Party pills and marijuana is also popular among the group.
Chrome dubs and other accessories on SUV and what not.
It is not only a lifestyle, it is an industry. Why stop when money comes your way.
