@Classic: "Totally immersed and infatuated with american culture" - What culture?
What culture??? U must be crazy??? Especially sense ur posting this on a hip hop site!!!!!
Hip hop is an aspect of American culture that has spead world wide. And then u turn around and ask what culture?? Where do u think hip hop started? France??Lol ur a trip
--The music, (blues rock, hip hip, soul, R&B, jazz, etc.)
--the way of life(cloths, trends, slang, etc....)
--the mentalitity( american deam)
All this stuff is copied WORLD WIDE, in your country and everywhere else, and I know because I have seen it first hand. I was in Uganda and people were tryin to talk, look, act and dress American. Same exact thing in the UK…..

what they dont understand," i think everyone understands what america is about, noone on this board is that stupid, and what do you actually mean by that anyway? what dont the rest of the world understand?
U have no idea what America is about casue American is made up of so many things… I have lived hear my entire life and I don’t know what America is about , so how the hell could u??? Outsiders DON’T understand what its like to actually live here
This is like the equlivant of me reading the history about ur home town of LEICESTER. Giving u facts on this and that, telling you history bout when your town was founded all the bad things etc…. I can know all that shit but I still have NO IDEA what it means to actually live and grow up there.
ur quotating hot air stats with no experience…We had this same disagreement with the race thread. Like lot of people, you have no idea what its like here. Your trying to use ur own experiences to justify how other people live. Its sad that u cant see that
Like I said im not stupid, America is a fucked up place at times, trust me I know, but its also a great place too, and people tend to forget that aspect. It’s a place were a poor sharecropper who can barely read(my grandfather) can watch his grandson walk across the stage and get his masters degree. Like it or not, their aint too many places in the world where this can happen
The fact of the matter is this is my home and despite the BS I really wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. So does that make me a George bush lover for being some what patriotic?? Does that means I agree with all our govement decisions. HELL NO! It just means im proud of my heritage.
It kills me when people just bash what they don’t know
