[quote=Anonymous]The turn this discussion has taken is very interesting, because to the average suburban/urban middle class or UMC teenage boy, the country music and rap music are more similar that you would think. Both reflect a culture that differs from the one they are growing up in. Both have aspects that are extremely offensive, including the extreme glorification of alcohol in country music, as well as sexist messages. Both genres appeal to disenfranchised groups and hold allure for interested outsiders. Both often glorify undesirable aspects of the culture,including criminality and violence. I never really thought about be before, but the genres share many characteristics, yet country music is not considered as threatening as rap.[/quote]
