Another recap on the Don Imus flap as "Snoop" speaks out.

Snoop Doggy Dog, the Rap "artist", presumably speaking for other Rap "artists", reacted this week to comparisons between what Don Imus said and Hip Hop musical lyrics that constantly degrade women by saying: "It's a completely different scenario. [Rappers] are not talking about no collegiate basketball girls who have made it to the next level in education and sports. We're talking about ho's that's in the 'hood that ain't doing sh--, that's trying to get a n---a for his money. These are two separate things. First of all, we ain't no old-ass white men that sit up on MSNBC [which announced Wednesday it would drop its simulcast of Imus' radio show] going hard on black girls. We are rappers that have these songs coming from our minds and our souls that are relevant to what we feel. I will not let them mutha----as say we in the same league as him."

Notwithstanding who Snoop is (not a good representative of ANY group other than Rappers), do you think he's making any SENSE by his claims of a difference between Rap music lyrics and Don Imus' rants, or is he simply spewing out NONSENSE? What do you think?

It makes sense, it's just still wrong.
