those same 90% are set in clubs or at parties (uh oh...concept!...that's where their target audience is). go to one of those clubs shown in 90% of the videos and tell me you don't see the same thing. the music is playing to their target audience and it is doing a good job at it.

And the target audience is typically a bunch of ignorant people. There aren't too many educated, self-respecting people who listen to that kind of music. And the videos I've seen, when flipping through the channels, are not ones in clubs, but outside der cribs pimpin der rides, wif hoes bunch dat booty etc....but whatever, IMO, its garbage.
How long has MTV been around?! 24 years?! How many people have listened to and been affected by rap music!? You do realize that college students listen to rap!? So everyone that listens to rap is ignorant...please...
Again, read the statement. You are saying the same thing Andrew said.
And FYI, Mtv, has only been rap/r&b for the last few years. It used to play a majority of rock and other types of music. The only rap you usually used to see on it was Ed Lover and Dr. Dre's show "Yo! Mtv Raps" so don't say Mtv has played rap for 24 years.
