Current Events > Why is rap music above SJW law?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I love rap, don't get me wrong, but there is really offensive stuff in some of the lyrics, but no one is out here trying to cancel rap artists for saying horrible things about women, gay people and breaking the law

---

Because rappers would tell them to go fuck themselves.
---

Because everyone who's not white gets a pass by SJWs

Edit* not white or Asian

Yikes

I was going to say that the only time in recent history I heard anything about SJWs going after a rap artist was with Eminem. Before that there were a lot, but I can't think of any after Eminem

*hates SJWs*

"Why aren't SJWs literally destroying the life of everyone ever?"

Also, plenty of rap is not just "horrible things about women" yet people have being speaking of that as a pillar of the genre for 30 years.

I liked tc better when he pretended to be a girl

Then why did Kevin Hart and Dave Chappelle get attacked by SJWs if only people who aren't white or Asian get a pass? And why did you include Asian anyway?

Same reasons SJW's don't go after NFL sports and the like...

SJW are soft and would get their **** rocked. They only go after easy targets aka the gaming industry that's run by soft beta men and etc.

Because its the best music and the best shit gets to slide

Rap is by far my favorite genre, I know it's not all about that. What I'm saying is that there is still a lot of offensive lyrics in rap music that is still being released, but SJWs don't care about that. Instead they go back 20 years and find out what people said in the past.

Lol no lupe fiasco got bombarded by sjws for one of his songs. You are looking for a double standard that aint there brah.

Jedi Mind Trick doesn't give a fuck, their fans don't give a fuck, and they aren't mainstream enough to Garner the attention in the first place.

Then shouldn't you be happy SJWs leave rap alone? Do you want them to screech about it or something?

Because comedians are not rappers.

Want the point me to where this is? I only ask because I have listened to a good amount of songs from him and never heard anything offensive. Superstar, Daydreamin' and Battle Scars being the only ones I've heard a few times

That user said rappers get a pass for not being white. Not for not being comedians.

If there's a point you'd like to make, just say it, otherwise your question is answered.

Oh, the Eminem comment? I didn't say that, someone else did.

I didn't know they got attacked by SJWs. And SJWs have a thing against at least the Japanese, not sure about other Asians.

Big lols to all the smart people that dont understand TC is pointing out the hypocrisy and insincerity of the complaints, not asking SJWs to bitch about EVERYTHING. My god. Turn them brains on, boys.
---

I don't listen to rap because of how foul it is.

Plenty of sjws are mad at rap if you look hard enough.

People have been complaining about misogyny in hip-hop basically since the genre began

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misogyny_in_rap_music?wprov=sfla1

I think you'd have to be actively trying to ignore these discussions in order to believe the premise this topic is based on.

tc asked why the left aren't complaining about rap. everyone knows its misogyny has been a common critique about rap for decades. its just that its usually come from conservatives and other closet racists. repubs like to blow their dogwhistles and stuff.

thats precisely why libs arent crying about rap. because the right hates rap. and if the right hates it then theyll allow it. right no-likey = good even if it actually isnt

Right. This is kind of my point

SJWs want to "cancel" everything offensive, but they don't go after rap artists that say horrible things. Like you said, it's the closet racists and old, white Republicans that go after rap music

I'm more or less an sjw and I think many rap lyrics are highly offensive

Edit: highly offensive is a bit of a stretch. I think it's fine for art to push boundaries.

And you got your answer.

1. Rappers aren't easily bullied
2. Conservatives are seen as the rap haters so liberals leave them alone.

What more would you like?

I didn't expect an answer. Just pointing out the double standards

I'm sure you can find critiques by sjws about rap if you care to look

Why is the perception of double standards a problem?

they don't

but also, rap is not more sexist than... well, really any other style of music with lyrics. rappers just get away with it less because most of them are black

They wouldn't be upset since he's not like that at all anymore. I think he's really into religion now and is very against all that stuff

Hoe, slut, bitch, thot, and objectification of women as objects got 99 problems but a bitch aint one and in general perverted lyrics that focus on a womans body are all far more common in rap than any other style of music, even metal.

I don't know that that's true (citation needed) and I also don't care. the things you listed are not the only way of being sexist

Because there is no SJW law.

hip hop has been criticized all the time breh, are you like not older than 14 yet?
