I can’t find a non Wikipedia reference, but it did say that hip hop was the best selling genre by 1999.
Just for reference, these are the top 100 songs of 2000. The year before the iPod was introduced.
None of the hip hop songs that were popular were groundbreaking - mostly just bubble gum rap. I doubt very seriously that Apple would have been willing to put any socially conscious rap on iPods.
