Tbh even if a song has a satirical message about something problematic, I can't really excuse it because songs (and lots of entertainment media in general) don't lend themselves to [self] critical assessment--i.e. someone can actually take something like FOB's song seriously and believe it speaks some sort of social truth because it ISN'T clear within the song itself that that type of thought and behavior IS problematic and dangerous.
