The Race of Rock? (Simmons v N.W.A. part 3)

This is my third post concerning the dispute between Gene Simmons of the band Kiss and Ice Cube of the hip-hop group N.W.A.

I am writing this because I was concerned with several of the responses I received yesterday and wanted to make my arguments even more directly to these arguments.

Billy Corgan Loves Him Some "Rock Hall Billy Corgan"
