Drug Cartels like... the CIA! They've done every thing they can to destroy the black community. Why do you think a black kid who does well is called an Oreo? Why is it when a black person does well in some thing other then sports or rap or drug dealing he's betrayed the life? Also, when white kids listen to this music do they then go out and shoot people? No. Because they haven't been brainwashed into believing that is how they should act. They aren't called Oreos if they go to school read a book, do well. They aren't told from a young age that if they don't shoot some one for stepping on their shoe that they aren't really white.

Your entire post further solidifies the sterotype that the only way to make it out of the hood is to play a sport or be a rapper/actor....once again, rubbish.
The Most Powerful Black Executives in America Meet 50 black business men and women who wield unprecedented clout.
Sometimes the tale of black power in America can be told in images. Back in 1969, power was political, epitomized by a Newsweek cover with a young black man named Tom Jones brandishing a rifle and a raised fist after leading a militant rebellion at Cornell University. These days the image that resonates is corporate, of that same man in his corner office suite at Citigroup. Cuff links displaying the Travelers umbrella peek out from Jones' conservative dark-blue power suit. Another red Travelers umbrella shines from his lapel, and the company logo covers his tie too. In other words, he's armed with all the accoutrements befitting his current role: chairman of Citigroup's asset-management, global-investment, and private-banking operations.
Sometimes the tale is better told in numbers. Jones, 53, now oversees four business units, 12,000 employees, and almost $700 billion in assets. Though something of a long shot, he is reportedly one of five contenders to replace his mentor Sandy Weill as CEO of Citigroup.

The Black Community has been devestated by Rap and the Rap life style. Look it up! People who listen to rap are more likely to commit a crime then people who listen to country.

Your kidding me right??? I could understand if you were saying this crap theory about all the BS rap that is out there now, but to say that one of the best lyricist of all times works with the CIA. You have lost it man. I dont say this much but get off of ATS for a month or so and get your mind right!

Here is a possible theory to that.
The power of HYPNOSIS through sound and speech. Sound would regulate mood/energy levels and the speech would of course be the programming details.
An example.... the beat and everything of some rap can be enough to get someone feeling riled up like they wanna take action. I always like to listen to fast paced techno when I work out at the gym.
The words? Well thats where the specifics of brainwashing come in. If you think about it... rap is composed mostly of words... more than any average rock song...
