HIP HOP vs. Oprah & Gayle

Since the Lisa Leslie, Gayle King interview, Gayle and Oprah have come under fire from Snoop Dogg and other members of the Hip Hop Community. While I have the upmost respect for what Oprah and Gayle have done for African Americans, I can't help but to express my disappointment in their subconscious or conscious bias towards Black men in Hip Hop. Many superstars in Hip Hop, such as Ice Cube, Luda, and 50 Cent to name a few, have accomplished so much but have been shunned by Oprah for no apparent reason other than being rappers. This has left many in the culture feeling unsettled. Respectfully, Gayle King was dead wrong for her insensitive line of questioning to Lisa Leslie in the aftermath Kobe Bryant's death. This interview has put a spotlight on both women, however, this is really a larger discussion that has needed to happen for decades regarding Oprah's apparent opposition to the Hip Hop Culture and the Black men that continue to move it forward. I'd love to hear your thoughts and your opinions on this. Please leave a comment.
