About this Quote

This quote by Saul Williams talks to the existing state of rap music and its absence of diversity. He thinks that rap music is too concentrated on the "ghetto" and is not looking beyond that. This restricts the capacity of rap music and its ability to reach a wider audience. He thinks that rap music must be able to look beyond the "ghetto" and check out different topics and designs. This would enable rap music to become more available and appreciated by a larger audience. By looking beyond the "ghetto" and checking out various topics and styles, rap music could end up being more diverse and reach a wider audience. This would ultimately be beneficial for the genre and its fans.
