[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only answer is to make thug culture not seem cool and desirable for teens. Good luck.[/quote] This is another elephant in the room people don't want to tackle. I grew up listening to hip hop, but we have to acknowledge a good portion of it is toxic and not fit for public consumption.[/quote] Hip hop as a form is valid and good but the topics and lyrics and worldview matter and we can't just dismiss all of the negative role models in the name of "telling it like it is" and pretending like it doesn't glorify violence and greed. I know this personally since I almost went down that path myself as an ignorant young male who grew up in DC. [/quote]
