Im only 22 and since the first day ive known about rap ive had not even a speck of respect for them. As for as i can tell they are the number 1 influence creating bad kids, retarded language/slang, and flat out crap fashion. Sagging looks like kids took a crap in their pants, their language makes them seem like they skipped school their whole life. When kids are sleeping to music with dark themed techno in the background and lyrics that consist of killing people, doing drugs, getting revenge, and trying to explain reasons in which cheating or being a "player" is good, as well as labeling females as 2nd class beasies, and i wont name the other 2 names. Its definitely no wonder, we have a higher percentage of crime per person in terms of our population than alot of other countries. I dont care if 90% of our country loves rap, from what i can see, rap, sagging, and even alot of heavy metal which is pro drugs alot of the time, needs to be completely illegal to those under 17-18.

I think it has to do with rebellion.Rap music has a powerful feel to it.The beat and the force of the rap has an effect on some peoples emotions.It doesn't mean that you want to do what they're saying in the rap,but that you're feeling a certain way at the moment.Some of it I like,some of it is garbage.

Music is Music,
they always look for ways to change it.
Just a matter of time.
Early Rap was nice, then it changed.
