You are absolutely right... except about the mystique part. The top rappers have it in spades. Bad Boys, against the law, scares your parents... etc.
All rock needs now are some bad ass white boys to pick up the slack. What happened to all the rebels? Tommy Lee, David Lee Roth, Steven Tyler etc. All I see are guys with eyeliner and tight pants. WTF is that about?
