    @Tweldofame Not true. Rap just appeals to a different crowd, mainly underprivileged urbanites. Its harshness is a reflection of the lifestyle that some are forced to live due to circumstances. btw i am not referring to most mainsteam (ie lil wayne, nicki minaj, latter-day jay-z). With this said, rap has its good and bad, and you have probably heard the bad, womanizing aspect of it. I implore you to look up Lupe Fiasco (Handcuffs, Sierra Leone), Tupac Shakur (Brenda Had a Baby, Dear Mama).

    @Tweldofame far from true. Rap is just poetry that appeals to a different demographic by relating to a much more urban low-class populace. Though it is by far much more abrasive then many other styles, there is also a certain appeal that it gives. With that said, there is a style of rapping for everyone. I implore you to google such rappers as lupe fiasco (Handcuffs, Sierra Leone Diamonds) or Tupac Shakur (Brenda Had a Baby, Dear Mama). Try to listen to the meaning, not the harshness.

    The new iMovie brings more action, drama, and romance to your home videos with Hollywood-style movie trailers. Create one using your own video footage complete with animation, titles, and a score by the Symphony Orchestra

    Now that’s impressive !
    Thanks for sharing the new video with the world !
