Dangers of Negative Rap, November 24, 2007
This review is from: Rap and the Eroticizing of Black Youth (Paperback)
Question: What is the future of a people whose children perceive themselves as and call themselves bitches, whores, N-word, thugs, and gangsters? The answer: Bleak. Negative Rap fast forwards children's sexuality, promotes handgun violence, encourages extreme materialism, and provides a heavy dose of negative attitude. An already overburdened African American community can not affort much more. Is negative Rap truly art or is it a money making pathology presented as art? Children and teens are manipulated to self-destruct through their exposure to the lyrics, soft porn and violent videos, and unhealthy personalities of the exploitative Rap industry. The recommendations in Rap and The Eroticizing of Black Youth are realistically helpful.
