    Do black people from California tend Spanish fluently or at least decently?

    It seems like most of the West Coast rappers add a few Spanish words in their songs or even full out entire verses in Spanish.

    I am asking because I was looking at two music videos, one from Kris Kross and one from Xscape.The clothes they're wearing in the music videos, cars, etc it seems like in the early 90's a lot of the West coast style was popular in Atlanta.
