Given that the general tastes among listeners relates somehow to a 'collective consciousness', to what would you attribute the shift in main stream hip-hop from groups like P.E., KRS1, DeLa Soul etcetera to what is now mostly a misogynistic and materialistic offering? How much can we blame consumers for not choosing ‘fruits and vegetables’ when they are being offered, mostly, a buffet of cakes and candy and the ‘healthy food’ is two floors up behind an unmarked door? To be specific I am mostly thinking of the role that the record companies play in what is offered to the consumers considering that sex, the high life and violence ‘always’ sell?
