22530: orenstein: music, hip hop, Haiti (fwd)

A friend returning from Haiti last March or April mentioned to me that some
of the men involved in overthrowing the government seemed to be into
American hip hop music and fashion - I was wondering if anyone else observed
that?  And if it's so, whether it's a significant trend?   On another note,
ten or fifteen years ago, racine music played a big role in politics, does
it still?
