Both can be super edgy

But metal is more edgy in the cliche/stereotypical way I guess

I think both can be pretty edgy, but rap is more broad in its edginess. Like, all the stuff about metal that would be considered edgy - rap has a subgenre for that

Metal does have demons and shit.

But DMX did have Flesh of My Flesh.

Yeah. Rappers actually DO the stuff that metal guys just talk about, for the most part.

Many Swedish death metal bands would disagree with you. Some of those guys are fucking psychopaths.

These guys can get salty as they want, rappers actually DO the stuff metal guys talk about.

No one really think some dude from the suburbs is gonna harm anyone. When they do, it's rare.

Because nowadays most of that stuff is relegated to underground artists, and the people who would try to cancel someone for that are not the people buying underground rap in the first place.

There are of course some notable famous rappers who did that stuff in the past but for the most part those guys stopped doing it ages ago.

canceling only works if those being canceled actually care about it

Using slurs against other people is common in rap

Says a lot about rap fans i guess to support that kind of thing. In b4 not all rap is like that.

Metal got the Parental Advisory labels going, a rap album was one of the first to get it, so both kinda even out I guess.

Gangsta Rap is a genre that started when literal gangsters became rappers instead. So, of course they rap about criminal behavior, because that's the life they actually lived.

And gang culture started with the intention of defending communities against crooked cops. It's just, like everything else, it lost it's way over time and got polluted with more malicious intentions. But some are still all about that original intention. Like E-40, who Im listening to atm. All his music is about warning his community not to fall into the allure of the life or traps people set up for those born into the life

There is a lot of rap that talks about real shit. Most metal doesn't really have deep lyrics (music is great though).

Yeah I wish gangs would go back to being community focused. I feel like Nipsey was a good step in the right direction in that regard, but... now he's gone. Sucks man.
