Hello. You did not present the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, by doing research on McBride and his relationship with Hip hop, I was able to find information that I believe is useful and can help you.
James Mcbride feels that hip hop is giving us a great warning about social causes that are present in society in an intense way, but that are often overlooked, due to the lack of disclosure and lack of interest in the political body of countries. In this case, hip hop, for Mcbride, is a great promoter of social problems and the impacts they cause on society, for this reason, hip hop addresses issues such as poverty, racism, slavery, social inequality, family abandonment, violence, crime, among others.
