...movement is specifically anti-American. "Our struggle is not against America but against uncontrolled globalization," he told TIME. "McDonald's is a symbol of industrial food production. Whether such products are American or French, the effect is the same: the destruction of traditional farming, different cultures and ways of life." He blames the European Union as well as the U.S. for "the imperialism with which they aid agricultural exports." Arguing for the right of every country to "choose what it wants to eat," Bove supports tariff barriers to protect national agricultures and calls for the creation of an independent world...

On the other, boasting and roasting are also part of the tradition. Lately, exaggeration has ruled. It's often hard to find real experience in the cartoonish raps of many gangsta rappers. Q-Tip, on his new album, Amplified (Arista), brings back the honesty--but doesn't cut back on the fun.
