This nonsense about rap glorifying bad behavior
and promoting a moralaly inferior culture has been around
for as long as black music has.

they use the same words in their think pieces to spin this line.



And even if this theory had some validity
(and i don't think it does- I was able to
understand irony, hyperbole, and fantasy as a black kid
and I assume black kids understand those literary devices too- just like white kids didn't take Marilyn Manson and eminem literally)
that can't do more damage than the prison industrial complex
and the war on drugs and emplyment discrimination and
a dozen other systemic problems I could name off the top of my head.

I ain't the one out of touch here.

I hate new music, but I know enough about music (and its critics)
to know that this is some bullshit.
