... I think there's a big difference between not clapping for old songs/lyrics from artists where the language / subject matter is defensive and deplorable, and straight up denouncing the group entirely based on one song they made when they were what, like 19 ?
And I don't want to downplay how atrocious that song is, it's awful. I just don't think one song from 1991 (unreleased, at that) is worthy should result in eternal damnation for one of the greatest rap groups of all time.
