Reply to How come rappers can get away with saying the most outrageous shit about women, but the second some indie acoustic pop whatever artist says something like “don’t be a slut” it’s considered the fall of western Fucking civilization? by [deleted]

As a deep lover of hip hop, especially 90’s New York style, it’s also incredibly interesting with how many people can write oppressive lyrics about any subject really, while also claiming to be the oppressed.

The culture is wild. Not all of it is this way, but it’s just so ironic to see a collective group of individuals from very specific walks of life sing battle cries about racism and oppression and then DIRECTLY write about those topics directed at other groups of minorities and women.

Again, not all of hip hop is like this, but the main culture around it surely is.

I haven’t listened to them in a loooong time but this is really getting me excited about them hahah. I recommend Subhumans as well. Bit more of traditional punk but very similar.
