    Juan Williams hits the nail on the head.
    Don't always agree with him, but he is exactly correct with his observations about rap music.

    Quote:

    "We pulled Trump off Twitter," he said, "Yet we are allowing music, displaying of guns, violence. We’re allowing it to stay on these sites." Adams said he plans to convene social media firms and "tell them that you have a civic and corporate responsibility." The mayor met with some drill rappers on Tuesday.

    I tried to watch the Super Bowl half time show. It was unwatchable and unlistenable .


    "The clear message from early rap through today’s drill music is that young Black people can find riches by rapping about gang violence or by joining a gang. Both involve being trapped in an identity where racial consciousness somehow does not extend to songs of love for family, community, the value of schools or building business. "

    That says it all . With few exceptions (Will Smith songs come to mind) ,the genre is terrible
