To be completeley honest, I have nothing against rap/hip hop... But I view it as something you see on MTV... Not something you see in a talent show or something like that... I enjoy rock, etc. though... So I'm not so sure about the whole rock vs. hip hop thing.
As to the whole 'gangsta' style itself, I can't say I enjoy it. The jewellery... Basically it's saying get as much 'bling' on you as possible. This may be a biased opinion (and a tad bit off-topic), but I'm a student studying jewellery design for my degree and it pains me to see people actually buying such ridiculous jewellery... Most of their jewellery are nothing but clumps of diamonds set together... I honestly fail to see the art here...
Obviously, I'm a girl, and I'd say 'NO' to gangsta style anyday. People that do are either really into hip hop or are just in it 'cause its the 'trend of the moment'.
I have been labeled unattractive by the "popular" female members of society and have joined the ranks of those like me.
Don't worry about that. From personal experience, only 10% of these girls would grow up to actually become something. It's not your loss in any way. Besides, when you're outside school, you're the one who's going to get merits from society. Not them.
