In what way do the consumption of and desire for a genre help tocontinue its existence?
I'm the consumer in this case as a suburban white guy. Why does the sales to a demographic which has absolutely no relatable experience to the message fuel so much of the genre? You'd think if suburban white kids were buying the music then more rap would be about prom dates and the struggles of your dad grounding you, yet Gangsta rap is about life in a place where the listener can't even imagine being.

break-dancers and graffiti artists
The immediate song that comes to mind is "Rapper's Delight" which begins the song with basically scatting the word"hip-hop"

"keepin-it-real nigga."
Is positive rap then not real? If ghettocentric rap is the only thing exemplifying that, then does that make afrocentric rap too idealized and unattainable?

That awful thing, a woman’s memory!
A person is ruined when they take advice from Henry and recall and use it. Its one thing for Henry to have his own notions, but entirely another for someone to be convinced by his arguments.
-
You are quite perfect. Pray don’t change.
Henry has a very similar personality to Frank Gallagher in Shameless. The difference is that Frank toys/manipulates people to get ahead and scam them, while Henry does it just because he can and it's fun.

“It is the face of my soul.” “God! what a thing I must have worshipped! This has the eyes of a devil.” “Each of us has Heaven and Hell in him, Basil,”
In worshipping Dorian up to this point that the has seen the picture, was he worshipping the Dorian that he originally painted, or the new terrible Dorian?
-
Nothing is serious nowadays. At least nothing should be
A little bit of a slip that Dorian doesn't want Basil to bring up the very thing Halward is about to bring up. Simply afraid of facing him.

And, certainly, to him life itself was the first, the greatest, of the arts, and for it all the other arts seemed to be but a preparation
Is it still art if his life is hideous?

There was something about Dorian that charmed everybody.
He can charm anyone, but begins to hate himself and finds himself horrible.
-
It is only shallow people who require years to get rid of an emotion. A man who is master of himself can end a sorrow as easily as he can invent a pleasure. I don’t want to be at the mercy of my emotions. I want to use them, to enjoy them, and to dominate them.
This sounds like it came striaght from Lord Henry

chased silver Louis-Quinze toilet-set
From what I'm getting, he just bought a toilet that looked like the second image that is engraved like the first. I cannot imagine anything more vain -
orian Gray loathed him more than ever. He felt as if he had come to look for Miranda and had been met by Caliban. Lord Henry, upon the other hand, rather liked him.
There a strong split in thoughts and feelings betwen Gray and Henry. Potentially a huge split is coming
-
But do you approve of it, Harry
Since when is it his responsibility to approve Dorian's choices?
-
Would you think it awfully rude of me if I asked you to go away?
yeah..... to finish the picture..... riiiiiiiiiiight. He would like one on one time with Mr. Gray. Basil is being jealous of Dorian splitting his attention between the two of them
-
ate the way you talk about your married lif
in contrast to my previous comment, Basil is an optimist who is good and sees the good in others, like the beauty in Dorian and the worth in Basil

nervous
Why does Lady Brandon make him nervous?
-
“Conscience and cowardice are really the same things, Basil. Conscience is the trade-name of the firm. That is all.
Will start marking Henry's trademark notes on life

one charm of marriage is that it makes a life of deception necessar
If the above statements didn't do it, now we know that Henry is a scumbag
