Are We Too Hard on Black Musicians to Be “Perfect” Role Models?
Musicians appear to be held in high regard in the black community, particularly in Hip-Hop when it comes to serving as role models for younger generations. Unfortunately, you have no control over who you influence or who looks up to you as a popular entertainer. You can try to reach a specific group of people, but in the world of social media, anyone can be looked up to as a role model. Is it fair to say that these artists are to blame for some of the problems in our community?
