why do rappers always "grab" themselves?

It could possibly be all the "hoes" they have encountered and fornicated with and are now feeling the results of "getting their freak on" by enjoying a flaming case of gonaherpasyphillitis.

Ha... it's about doing your own thing, not letting others influence you. Watch the music video, though it is somewhat weird.... you'll know what it means, maybe, but yeah do your own thing, that's what it's about, so do it!!!!!lol

They're actually holding onto their pants.  Having ridiculously big pants is a culturally acceptable clothing trend.  If they don't hold onto the front of their pants, they'll fall down around their ankles and they'll trip.  It's not just black guys.  White guys with big pants do it too.

i agree with you. some of them are okay, but a whole lot have very nasty images in their lyrics. and not just that, hip hop right now annoys me. every teenager i meet practically loves those kinds of songs and they're not even that good! i can't wait when everyone realizes it sucks and then go up to their faces and tell them they are such phonies or posers for listening to a type of music cause everyone else does. be an individual! don't give in to conformity!

Because that is the consequence of rappers selling out and making an album to sell to the masses!\n\nAll of those Kiss pinball machines and plasma TV's you see on MTV Cribs were paid for by the white girl!\n\nThey steal your music than run from you because the music turns into reality!\n\nHowever if you were snoop dog with the bling bling they would gold dig you!

I think it's cause he raps about things we want to say, but kept to ourselves. And some think he's cute. Some think he's the best rapper. Not to mention the catchy songs he's made.

because people are judgemental. and they like to gawk which is pretty stupid considering we are all the same. Im a freek and proud of it. all juggalos (psychopathic records...Insane clown posse, twiztid,ABK, etc) (not to get it confused with jiggalos.Very different meanings) are freeks and everybody is a freek in their own way.

it is just a reflection of the communities that hip hop came from.  Most of these guys are from the streets.  And what do is always said? you can take so and so out of the ghetto, but you can never take the ghetto out of so and so.  it is ruff out there.  Police brutality.  Gang violence. drug deals gone bad.

hey i just got into rap myself about two years ago...i came  form a very religious home where it wasn't allowed...but it really isn't all bad...some of it is just shameless excess(bling-bling, hoes, and fast cars)...which i really don't like...but i suggest you buy some Tupac albums as well as the roots,  and common...their songs usually have a message and some nice beats...you will get tired of hearing about hoes and money after awhile...their music is really refreshing!

Ummmmm no idea! I always wondered that myself!  I hold my body as something special for the man I love and care about- not to be showing it to everyone in the world!  I think its part because they r drunk and stupid.  Other part is they r insecure and need constant approval of how good they are.

Yup, there are times that is just do not want to touch someone else's hands, nothing personal, just a want.  You know like the 3 feet of personal space some people insist on.  It just night feel like your invading that space.  Who knows?

It comes down to how much curl there is happening. Players know that the rock curls most for a guard, and the least for a peel. So, they judge how close it is to hitting the rock or going in the right place. So if they want it to stay straight or speed up, they call for them to sweep, and if they don't, then they hold them off.

it annoys most people, and we laugh at the rappers life.I always think "that stuff remindes me of grade school" no music to it and no skill. cat rymes with hat whoa!

So many rappers portray themselves to be gangsters so the what a lot people assume rappers have to be. A lot of new rappers come out like that and they make hit records; people are afraid to be original and be themselves. Now Lupe Fiasco is a rapper but definitely not a gangster and he makes good music. He stepped away from the crowd and hasn't jumped on the band wagon.
