More From Quincy Jones

Socially, hip-hop has done more for racial camaraderie in this country than any one thing. 'cause guys like me, my kids - everyone under 45 either grew up loving hip-hop or hating hip-hop, but everyone under 45 grew up very aware of hip-hop. so when you're a white kid and you're listening to this music and you're being exposed to it every day on mtv, black people become less frightening. this is just a reality. what hip-hop has done bringing people together is enormous.

I don't appreciate it when women - or men - bandy about these stupid stereotypes about feminism that are age-old, and that are meant to keep people turned off from it. it's like, "all you have to do is wikipedia feminism to know that it's not about man-hating - so shut up." that makes me annoyed.
