When we were discussing it earlier I don't think we were referring to rape directly but more the way they refer to women in a way that could provoke derogatory actions. (i.e. that women are just "bitches" and "hoes". A hoe implies that she is someone you can take advantage of sexually. etc.)

Anyway, gangster rap just doesn't do it for me. I just don't think it's a very creative genre.
