SICKassMICK on YAY once again:
Now that i got your attention....... i tuned in to talk radio nine ten today... show was Bill O' Reilly. This guy in case you don't know is a conservative talk show host who has a serious grudge against rap music and the influence it has on the youth in all classes, lower class especially. His point of view is that young kids with nothing to turn to, underpriveleged ..how ever you spell that.. by whatever circumstance, turn to rap music as a father figure of sorts and get nothing out of it but a violent lifestyle and a fantasy of using women, drugs, and violence as a means of acceptance. He brings up the point that an overwhelming percentage of convicts and criminals listen to rap music, and has the impression that fat white guys sit behind and office desk, ordering around rap artists, MAKING them say the things they say in a selfish attempt to gain profit.
as a twenty four year old white male that has been infatuated with rap music, making beats and saying rhymes FOR THE PURE LOVE OF MUSIC, I think others like myself should be heard. You wonder why you are looked at the way you are, it's because media giants are clouding the heads of older people with purely fabricated facts.
I think somebody needs to make a good clean argument againt this.... without an awareness of media and the effect it has on the public and ultimately the government, we all may be left as criminals, going against the law to do what we love to do.
ANy thoughts are welcome on this.. this is a poorly made essay but a serious issue at that.
