Joining us again tonight is Truth Minista Paul Scott who is a Hip Hop journalist, activist and member of the Militant Mind Movement Think Tank who blogs at No Warning Shots Fired.

The Truth Minista says Hip Hop started out as the voice of young Black America. In the late 80's, "conscious Hip Hop," exposed many people to the teachings of Malcolm X and Marcus Garvey as well as others. But as it gained mainstream popularity the Pro-Black message began to fade. Join Militant Minded Radio, as guest TRUTH Minista Paul Scott of No Warning Shots Fired.com poses the question, "Is Hip Hop Still Black?"

A young rapper by the name of L’A Capone whose real name is Leonard Anderson was shot and killed while leaving South Shore studio in Chicago. The young man reportedly was friends with Lil Durk who is an affiliate of Chief Keef proving once again that slaveshiphop leads to the death of young black men.

Tragically one of the twerkers said they "were blessed" to be part of the event. SMH.
