Hip Hop "Intellectual"

A person who listens to lots of hip hop/rap and starts fights over trivial things: eye contact, bad look and disrepect. Notice the parenthesis around the word intellectual. Obviously, anyone who's into hip hop/rap cannot be an intellectual.

Hip hop intellectuals can be from any race, but in general they tend to be African American.
