    I can understand how some white people would have dificulty understanding what is said in some rap lyrics. Being a person who loves rap and I also do some writing myself, I know that some things that are said are regional. For example the way someone might say 'word' in NY is the same as someone saying 'squole' in Detroit. They both mean he same as if someone were replying a statement with 'really?'. As far as ebonics is concerned I don't believe in ebonics. I don't know where it comes from, but ebonics to me seems like it is something that white people made up to make black folks look stupid. I could be wrong though. As far as your question goes, it makes no sense why white people would act like they're down in front of you and then act completely different behind your back. In my experience a lot of racist white people know exactly what to say in front of your face not to pissss you off. When they get behind closed doors it's a whole different ball game. Why should anyone be scared to admit what type of music they listen to in front of their friends? That says something about the person and his or her friends if they have to be embarassed about the kind of music they listen to. Keep doing you baby girl, and damn what any hatin' faces have to say. Holla - to those who are in front of your friends - goodbye.
