''In its purest form Hip Hop was created to be a culture of resistance that takes pride in its ability to have fun while simultaneously empowering, educating, informing & uplifting the youth, the community and ALL who embraced it. Therefore true Hip Hop culture is not and never was degrading, violent, evil, sexist, racist, or homophobic.  The Hip Hop Culture are the originators of the

''DO YOU'' mindset as long as doing you does not bring harm to others.

HIP HOP is a community of LEADERS not FOLLOWERS that embrace change, positive living  growth, experimentation, and always challenges the status quo. Hip Hop culture celebrates life, creativity, unity, and uniqueness; all with one goal in mind and that is to make positive changes in one's life, community and the society for which we live - that is what Hip Hop is as defined by its CREATORS and the COMMUNITY that shaped the music & the culture.
