This can't be denied.More white people consume and purchase hip hop culture than black people. Trust me, most black people are not consuming mainstream hip hop to that degree. Hip hop cannot necessarily be equated to a delinquent culture because if you fixed the problems in those areas but kept the hip hop, there wouldn't be as many problems coming out of black communities.

here in america 90 percent of the males aged 12-22 listen to rap mostly and then rock and new school r&B and pop
the rest are the edgy hipsters that listen to their cringe indie music and edm
so ur ''mostly criminals'' listen to rap argument is not valid, virtually everybody including females here listen to rap to an extent

I love hip-hop music. Will always support it. As I get older though I listen to more 'mature' hip-hip. Subject matters such as everyday life, social issues, relationships, etc.
Back in the mid to late 90s I would bump Dr Dre, old Jay Z, old Eminem, etc. Just violence and misogyny mostly. I recall my dad listening to the MMLP in the car with me. Awkward...
I still enjoy hip-hop for the clever word play, storytelling, and similes in it. I also like that hip-hop is unapologetic and almost to a point arrogant, but really just a very confident art form. I feel that sort of stuff speaks to me. I still listen to a lot of hip-hop but as I get older my palette has changed a bit. I will listen to Phantogram, La Roux, Nujabes, etc stuff like that from time to time.
I'm a successful black man. I dress well, have a presence about me, college educated, articulate, six figures from a legitimate source of income. I grew up well. I will almost always support hip-hop as it's individual art form. You see rock and roll in the 60s vilified for it being rebellious music. It's the same with hip-hop now.
As much as people hate Kanye, he did actually introduce the idea that you can rap and talk about other stuff besides slapping bitches, promiscuity, drugs, etc. He has had moments where rapped about his mother, his relationships, social issues, etc. Not all avenues of rap are bad but I get the argument, but I don't think any other art form is so heavily scrutinized as hip-hop.
Ice-T makes a point about 'negative' rap though

Yes, they do. Oh, but that's alright....because it's not hip hop.
Lol, gotta love that selective targeting.
