I understand where your coming from, but can you think of a specific example? Not to mention a lot of darker metal does the same thing.

Dac needs some Nas and MF Doom if he's gonna complain about figurative language.

And I recall someone on the forum (no names, he's mah dawg) saying they didn't respect South Park Mexican because he molested little girls. But he said he still liked his music. And I chuckled.

Gangster rap is fine to me. I haven't come across any song about rape or violently killing someone so far. Maybe "I shot the little suckah" comes in every now and then, but rape? Not happenin.

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.

I take it there's rape and violent killing?

And I think Death/Black Metal would probably be more graphic about things like what the past arguments were about.

Lateralus: Not all women are hoes. Just the hoes are hoes.

Rap/Sing about what your passionate about is all I ask. If you don't like it you don't have to listen it and ruin it for the rest of us.

Freedom of Speech bitchez, they can rap about whatever they want. My problem is when they rap about rape or whatever because they think it makes them popular. What kind of ****ed up world do we live in where rape is cool?

Well, I figure it's more about telling a story than trying to make it seem 'cool'.

Then it's completley fine with me if they are "just telling a story".

Yeah me, too, I'm fine with it in that respect, too. I'm not fine with it, if they're just glamorizing it and singing about it to look cool.

And FYI yes some men think abusing women is cool. We live in a pretty ****ed up world.
