on child hood psychology......
I've already taken it. And acutally, most of a childs societal lessons are already learned by 5 or 6....so the actual age that I proposed was rhetorical. Sorry, I misrepresented myself.

But my question is very simple. Who's words would you want to hear coming out of their mouths?

You can not choose where all of your childrens lessons come from. So if they child is going to learn some music/lyrics whose would you want them to be?

And for the record, I didn't know what Grand Poobah and Derrick X did when they weren't rapping. Yet I WAS STILL inspired by them. Queen Latifah got caught with some marijuana. So? I still was inspired by the strength, humility and realness in her lyrics. Most of us are not privy to what these people do in their everyday personal lives. Which is why I prefer to discuss their lyrics.
