When Melle Mel was asked about how he felt about hip hop today in an interview he said, "I don't like it. I don't think black people should be represented by all that thug imagery because that's not really who we are. Nobody puts that in check."

Melle Mel doesn't like the nasty thug look, and he doesn't want to be represented by it. I have to agree with Melle Mel. I always say the same thing.

When I heard rap growing up, I don't remember seeing so much gang banging. People just had a great time together in music. They were very talented like Melle Mel. His talent and hard work made him number one. He did not have to go around acting ignorant to get somewhere. Mel did not have to prove that he was t he toughest guy on the street which had nothing to do with music. In rap music, Melle Mel had something to say, and people would listen. Listening to his words and music was more of a meaningful message to make you think or you were dancing.

I'm Gail Nobles and you're listening to EbonLiner.
