Question

5. In paragraph 23 McBride quotes Chuck D, of Public Enemy. What is your view of Chuck D's assertion? Are there ways in which rap music does pay “homage to the music that came before"? If so, what are they?

Answer 1

The above question wants a personal answer based on your opinion and interpretation of the text. For that reason, I cannot write an answer for you, but I will show you how to answer it.

Chuck D stated that hip-hop has become an MTV song. With that, he said that hip-hop has become something commercial, popular, and part of mass culture.

This moved hip-hop away from its origins, which aimed to highlight social causes and the experiences of its composers.

In this case, to answer your question, you must reflect, on whether Chuck D is correct in his position or not. For that, you can look for articles that analyze the evolution of hip-hop through the years and the changes that it presents.

Once you've decided your stance on what Chuck D said, you can write your response.
