Everything doesn't have to be what you like/dislike, you know? Things change with time. Media and entertainment goes hand in hand like fashion (you're not wearing bell bottom pants, are you?). Once Elvis was the fashion, now it's so old, maybe even to you. If you think Hip Hop has vulgerity and no meaning, then you're listening to the wrong ones. Look for better ones.Remember Rock N' Roll was not saint either. Those raciest, white trash singing "My mother was a witch. She was burn alive" with sub branches like Death Metal, Trash Metal, anti social, anti...this...anti that. Do you think they were better than Hip Hop? They're are as bad as your version of bad hip hop.

Hip Hop is the voice of the younger generation, maybe not your. It will be old and wear off someday too. The only things that remains constant is CHANGE, nothing else. You have 2 chioce, accept it and move forward with it OR wine about it, which nobody will care cause you'll not be the majority.

and I'm not impressed with your Michael Bolton lookalike mellow love songs. Even love songs change with time. Yours are too old.I've heard one but the one with Despearado, it doesn portrait your sainthood type of music with guns and Bollyhood style of fight scene.
