I have a teenage daughter and I'm not going to listen to The Chronic in the car with her -- the vulgarity and misogyny are cringe-worthy. although if she wants to play WAP or something, it doesn't bug me because she's a teenager and that's what's popular.

in that regard I let her pick whatever she wants to listen to in the car (she is on the standard Ariana/Megan/Lil Baby/SZA hitlist). most of it is decently listenable even if I've out-aged it.

unlike my parents, who didn't understand rap at all and mostly railed against it, I can talk to her about some common ground and never judge the content. she was playing Shots Fired by Megan Thee Stallion the other day (most new music I hear from her) and I asked if she knew what beat that was. and she really had no idea about Tupac and Biggie. which made me feel even older.
