Rose argues on the debate of the representation of hip hop whether it is causing violence or just a depiction of violence within a culture that is proclaimed to be ghetto.

In the novel The Hip Hop Wars by Tricia Rose, the author discusses the viewpoint on hip hop within today’s society and why the negative outlook is a problem. It is a way for people to express themselves, from fashion, art, music, and film.

Hip Hop is not just music, it is a cultural movement that was started in the 1970’s by African Americans that essentially evolved into something bigger as years went on.
