Alicia Keys says, "'Gangsta rap' was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. 'Gangsta rap' didn't exist." Will this affect your opinion of her music? Will this comment prevent you from buying her music in the future?

I've never like alica keys to begin with but I don't believe it will effect her music. She is ignorant for so many reasons. I really hate it when some one of a bi racial family does not celebrate both of her races. It is my opinion that she steers towards being black because it was a way for her to further her career. Again just my opinion. I have no respect for her at all.

I wish entertainers would just shut their mouths with all their "conspiracy theories"... If we wanted to hear from a crazy person, we would listen to Al Sharpton.

I LISTEN TO ALL SORTS OF MUSIC.... And I can honestly say some rap is just down right wrong, but I'm not a murderer either. Th thought of physically harming someone has never crossed my mind. People have to remember to hav etact and watch what they say because it can be taken the wrong way or come off as ignorant. I still like her music, and most likely will still listen to her. But I won't vote her into office, that's for sure!

I never bought any of Alicia stuff but some of what she said made sense.

Here I thought that "Gansta Rap" was a progressive underground movement that came out of "Signifying" and Africanized culture having fun making fun. Wow. Was I wrong.
