Take the death of any soprano's character and match it up with any gangsta rap song. Then ask how a black man can talk over music and its bad but if you have a name like Pachino, Impirioli, or Gandolfini you can act out the worst violence on tv and that is great television.
From the Godfather to the Sopranos there is a raging double standard in the race debate in America. Paris Hiltons outburt in court is proof of the white privilidge taken away. A rapper would be made an example of. Until people will acually engade in real dialog we will never be the United states. Maybe rap will be okay if they rap about the death of Phil Leotardo and see a shrink? Please white people stop appeasing racists and making exuses for them. The race problem is a basic lack of respect and untill the white people respect other races the problem will grow.
