Should the government censor lyrics of songs that are violent or expletive, for example “gangsta” rap? So......Gangsta rap encourages listeners to criminality. This is so on two levels. First, it sometimes uses language that actively incites crime, for example encouraging weapons use, spousal abuse or homophobic attacks. Secondly, it glorifies a lifestyle that is rich with imagery of criminality (e.g. gun use and drug dealing) and this sends out a subconscious but consistent message affirming criminality.???? or....Gangsta rap is a form of entertainment like any other. Some of its purveyors may use words or imagery that portrays certain criminal acts, but that is because they reflect the culture from which it spawned. Critics miss the subtleties of rap music, in which the rapper often takes on a particular persona in a song and so does not necessarily endorse the views or actions it portrays; rap fans are well aware of these ambiguities. Violence and criminality are also endemic in other forms of entertainment, for example opera and classic films often contain large-scale killing and violence. Trying to link gangsta rap to crime is singling it out amongst entertainment forms for political reasons. Would heavy metal, with its comparable content, be picked on instead if it were the music of a black urban underclass? What do you think! Thanks1

From NWA to Modern Gangsta rap? How did gangsta rap(if you can call ross and others that) go from pretty socially conscious like NWA, Tupac, Ice T, and Biggie to this glorification and indifference of modern thug rappers. NWA and others of their eras spoke about the challenges in the hood and said something needs to be done. Now people just say it is their and maybe even glorify it by claiming to have shot someone and laugh. I just wanna know how this could happen where our music went wrong.

Why is it okay for a girl to listen to gangsta rap, but it's not okay for a guy to listen to Sara Bareilles? This happened to me earlier today. According to my friends, there's a double standard when it comes to the types of music certain people can/should listen to. In other words, I can't appreciate Sara Bareilles' music even though I'm a guy. Girls apparently can listen to virtually anything, but guys are pretty much limited to rap, rock, and alternative rock. Who came up with this double standard, and does anybody else think that it's bullshit?
