TASK 14: first paragraph

"Are most black youngsters always represented as gangsters as in 50 Cent 'Get Rich Or Die Tryin' 20th january 2006(USA)"

Recently in movies, there is a lot of use of black youngsters acting as gangsters, this use may be due to the changes in the society that are happening and how always gangsters are associated with black males, this was seen in many movies before and also was seen in 50Cent "get rich or die tryin'" which really showed this and might prove that this idea is true, as it is a biopic genre of movie, it is based on the real life of 50 Cent and other black youngsters that turn out to become gangsters due to poverty, racism and other issues that black males are facing in society.
This movie shows clearly what are those black males in need of which is money and that what makes them become gangsters and starts getting involved in crimes, drugs etc...
This convention and the use of black gangsters is supported also in "Bullet Boy" which shows that those black males are somehow in need of money and get involved into crimes and many other things that makes those black males become gangsters, which can be related to the society because nowadays there is a lot of racism against black people, and that might be the reason that makes them revolt and become the "bosses" of society, so they could have more power and get more attention when committing those crimes and using drugs and getting the money. so in this case for 50Cent to get the attention and become popular he became the boss and became also a rap singer, but then got shot, this now brings up the issue that most rap singers are from a black background such as 50 Cent, 2pac, Lloyds Banks etc... This therefore shows that those black males in order to get out from poverty and their problems they get into rap music , but still being chased as an issues of jealousy or racism, such as 50 cent being shot 9times and 2pac being killed.
