The rappers that wear baseball hats aren't usually wearing them to represent the team it's mostly fashion statements. New Era is huge right now, go look at some of their hats, i'd say over 50% of their baseball hat designs aren't designed for baseball fans. People wear Yankees hats for the NY, people wear Atlanta hats for Atlanta most of it has nothing with the sport and no most probably don't know much or anything about baseball and they probably don't claim to... I really don't see a big deal. Here's an example http://images.hatworld.com/product/5/20054285/1_640.jpg do you really think that New Era had hot dogs and peanuts baseball fans in mind when they designed that.
