Yup. Then list 99% of actors and people from every other genre of music and see where their agendas and affiliations are. All the same shit. Yup. Then list 99% of actors and people from every other genre of music and see where their agendas and affiliations are. All the same shit.



The difference is that I don't usually hear Justin Bieber, Jessica Alba, Richard Gere or Bruno Mars talk about putting dead hookers in their trunk, killing crackas and raping little girls.



Do you finally get it?

There is nothing to get. You seem to have some sort of disconnect and are blinded by a bias. I don't have this hangup. It's mostly nonsense. Listen to 50 cent's music. Then keep in mind that he doens't drink or do drugs, lives in a mansion in a very nice area of Connecticut, is a health nut / work out freak and made several hundred million dollars off of his share in Vitiman Water. In reality these people are actors who fabricate a persona. Kind of like James Gandolfini portraying Tony Soprano.

Should I even go through the trouble of listing all the convictions, crimes, and deaths of rappers over the last 20 years? Shall we then compare that to the crime and death rate of country or opera stars?



Fiddy cent is not the typical story.



I actually like some rap, mind you, but come on....you're stretching here.

Honestly, I really just don't care enough. My entertainment consumption consisits of talk radio, cartoons, NCIS, Criminal minds and about 5 movies that I watch. It's not like I buy rap CDs or go to concerts. If I hear a song I like I may grab it off I-Tunes. Some here would make you think that by listening to any rap you are supporting the rape of children and drug sales. I'm just pointing out how nonsensical this is. Most of the shit you hear on the radio has no real redeeming value to it. It's just something to listen to. Honestly, I really just don't care enough.
