[edit] Graffiti

If graffiti is important enough to American hip hop culture to include an image, then perhaps it should be noted in the text as well?? --mtz206 (talk) 21:18, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

That's true. The thing is, the text of the page wasn't well thought out but developed over time via dozens or hundreds of editors. The way it's currently construed is, like most of the regional hip hop pages, it focuses primarily on musicians (rap groups, MCs, and DJs). The sad state of affairs is that there aren't enough hip hop experts here at English Wikipedia, yet. Badagnani 21:20, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Added Subtopics

I think that Compton should be it's own sub topic not to confuse people that they may be from the inside of Los Angeles, there are a lot of rappers from there and they deserve a more planned out mention.
