Raps problem with Oprah
A few months back, some rappers - Ludacris, 50 Cent and Ice Cube - openly expressed their displeasure with Oprah Winfrey, saying that she didn't promote rap music. Following this, she went on a morning show, hosted by Ed Lover, on Power 105.1, and faced some tough questions about her attitude toward rappers. Check out this piece by Yvonne Bynoe, called Rappers Aren't Feeling Oprah's Love, which gives an analysis on the situation. I agree with her, Oprah shouldn't have to promote something if she doesn't want to - and if people have a problem with that, then they are just going to have to hug it out: http://www.alternet.org/story/37815/
