Actually, it is that simple. So I have to disagree with your view. I'm
not a marketing major or anything like that, but clearly, if MTV/BET(or
your local radio station) ran the same videos(or songs) ad nauseum
without ANY semblance of balance, a visiting alien would be inclined to
believe that that was the real deal. And if that's true, clearly
impressionable kids will ride with that idea as well.  

<<Lot's of black kids hear that shit and just plain don't like it even
if it was crammed down their throats via videos and radio play, they'd
still think that shit is wack.>>

Disagree. Lots of black kids hear on radio and TV ONLY the "same 5
songs, 15 times a day, for 3 months" by the same 3-8 artists and their
respective affiliates. Whenever I've let a kid hold a J-Live, Sway &
King Tech, or Jedi Mind Tricks CD of mine to make them aware that it IS
other Hip Hop music out there, at least in my travels here in the
Illadelph, I've always gotten two typical responses, "damn, that shit is
hot", and "they're nice, but I've never heard them on the radio". Hmm..
This as always confirmed in my mind that, if given more shine, TONS of
artists would blow the present playlists out of the water. I somewhat
understand the politics surrounding the airwaves, but apparently dope
music tends to make folks wonder what they've been getting.
