Dear Editor and Chief:

My name is Brannon Whitted. I am a sophomore at Early College High School in Conway.

I am writing to address the issue of Rap being viewed negatively. Many citizens believe that this music is influencing our youth to become corrupt. They also believe Rap is causing people to become distracted from reality. I believe this genre of music is not distracting us from reality. Everyone needs an outlet from this cruel cold world rap is an outlet, but rap is not distracting us from reality. Rap however; is influencing our youth just not in a negative way.

A notorious rapper from NY is “Jay Z”. “Jay Z” is a very successful man, because he has done it all. “Jay Z” used to be drug dealer but Rap music led him. Due to Rap music “Jay Z” is now one of the most successful uprising business men of all time. This Genre of music turned his life around it can do the same for you.

Thank you so much for your time. I appreciate your help and hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,

Brannon Whitted
