Um yea. Doesn't most rap just consist of rapping about drug dealing, greed, lust, and killing people?
I mean not all of it does, like I don't think Drake raps about that stuff but he's the exception to the rule

Lmao sure you don't. I'll be sure to save this for you next time we get a topic about speech regulations in Europe or Canada.

Likewise who are you to deem what's safe or appropriate? I think a large number of the gaming community and neckbeard shit is lame as hell and breeds an atmosphere of intolerance and hate, but you don't see going around demanding it be outlawed.

OK bud. Don't think I've ever talked about speech regulations in Europe or Canada. And I'm not going around saying it should be outlawed. I guess it's more like when libs make those topics about racist people getting physically assualted cause they said something mean. I'm not gonna say censoring rap music is the correct thing to do, but I'm not gonna shed a tear if it happens.

He absolutely had a response, and is judging what you're saying based on your own previous behavior here. Just because you don't like it or consider it legit doesn't mean it's not a response.

True. Gangster rap, rap about drugs and violence, hasn't really been a thing since the early 2000's. Obviously they still exist but popular rap is about a lot of different subjects these days.

It has nothing to do with that. Rap is low effort garbage and has killed any chance of an entire generation of people wanting to be actual musicians. Why pick up a guitar and learn to shred when mumbling words that might sound alike if you listen close enough to a premade beat with heavy bass pays more and takes comparatively little effort?

Rap is a cancer that ruined music forever and I'll never understand why anyone would want that cancer to spread?
