The rap that stations like HOT 97.5 and especially KLUC play isn't very hardcore. Songs like "Laffy Taffy" are bubblegum hip-pop, I can't see songs like that making anyone violent.

Parents don't want to take any for the bratty kids they raise, and everyone wants to sue everyone, and make a fast buck! It's NOT the music! When I was kid, I smoked my fair share of weed, and listening to Ted Nugent was satanic---gimme a break! I listened to rap as well and turned out fine.
I did 3 decades of radio, raised 2 great kids---my son is an Electrical Engineer, and daughter in college. Parents have to spend time with their kids, and get involved in their life. My parents did it for me, I did it for my kids, and so on.
Too many parents are too quick to give their kids their money instead of their time. If all parents made TIME for their kids and raised them properly, tragedies like this past week wouldn't happen.(When all else fails, put the mob back in charge so our streets will be safe again...gangtas go back home to Cali and stay there)

Members of law autority ahve been trying to do stuff like this for the longest time... I remeber back in the days when I lived in Fla, there were numerous law enforcement officials who said that rap should be banned from the radio and nightclubs which put on rap shows should have their licenses taken away...Its ridiclous for these officials to signal out one format of music...

I'd probably want to be violent... violent towards myself that is, starting with cutting off my ears, Reservior Dogs-style, if forced to listen to this type of music after awhile

Why is it so ridiculous to "single out" Hip Hop when practically everybody knows how endemic violence is within that genre! For example, just last week somebody was murdered in Brooklyn during a video shoot for Busta Rhymes (actually it was Busta Rhymes' own bodyguard who was killed, and Busta won't cooperate with police to bring the killer to justice!). People are just fed up with the casual violence within the Hip Hop scene.

I'd support it. anyone remember tupac getting his worthless ass greased at the corner of tropicana and las vegas blvd back in 1996 after the wrestling fight? best thing that ever happened. We all got lucky also that the sloppy idiots didn't strike any of the tourists walking along on the strip. you know, the real people? tupac isn't real and it does not take a idiot to see that he is cast as a fake idol and victim of violence. He wasn't a victim of anything except his just desserts.
I bet you people would still be supporting him as a idol if the team that killed him and his "down wit it crew" killed a family walking along the strip. Tupac is not a poet, he is a piece of garbage that just needed to be thrown out in apex (trash dump)
As much as I hate to say it, "hip hop folk" (trying to be caged here) are trash who can't aim a gun. look back on the mob hits of the 30's,40's, etc and you always hear they targeted their target and that was it.
Here in vegas we are having problems with gangs doing drivebys killing kids in beds, guys going to work to support a family, you know, honest people just trying to survive in life and bring support and happiness to their small corner of the world.
Cutting off the roots of the rap dragon by banning rap radio stations is a good start. start with cd sales next. I was shocked and disgusted to see white girls going down the road in a mustang with the top down and hearing "kill all the white womenz and rape them" blaring out of the radio and them singing along! excuse me? this is music? no it isn't.
I've yet to hear a country song (and I listen to alot of it) encouraging me to get drunk and go beat on a woman. maybe I choose not to listen to that music, who knows.
I've heard music on mix though from such bands such as "lit" singing the following:
"Can we forget about the things
I said when I was drunk
I didn't mean to call you that
I can't remember what was said
Or what you threw at me"
The above is "my worst enemy" look up the rest of the lyrics for it. what is that? uplifting music? it's sung by a guy who has problems with women and encourages that in his music's lyrics.
I am forced to hear rap music though when I worked for CCSN here at the cheyenne campus, driving around town, etc with such lyrics as "f*** da police, kill da police" and so many other uplifting lyrics. if parents in the 50's had problems when elvis shook his pelvis, I want to see those parents put into a room with copies of tupac and so many other rap bands and then take those out and put in copies of "dirty elvis songs" put in copies of ted nungent also while we are at it and see the reaction.
I don't think we all need to go back to the 50's and take the "it's a small world" ride at disneyland over and over, but yesh. this music is brain rot to this generation.
oh. want to be shocked? I am 21 years old. I am not a 65 year old on a soap box for the good old days. I do not like any of today's music. there are very few bands out there I consider good and deserving of my cash with buying their cd's.
I listen to about 270+ years worth of music. Everything from Chopin to Donna Summers and beyond. I do not support rap music and other garbage that condones killing, violence, and other forms of illegal actions.
if people had problems with "puff the magic dragon" being a drug song, lets see them listen to this modern music! assuming "puff the magic dragon" is a drug song, I find it alot more pleasing to listen to then hearing why I need to kill a cop, rape a woman, and so much more.

people are dying faster in their car than they are by stray "hip hop" bullets.
you know that "guy going to work" is more likely to die in a crash than by a stray bullet. this is real life not "menace II society".

Tupac was killed after a boxing match ( Mike Tyson ) so lets ban boxing . Lets abort all babies , that will cut down the crime . 1 percent of babies will do a crime in there life time . Lets ban weddings because 50 percent of couples will not last to death do there part . Lets ban fast food restaurant because the food is not good for health . Lets ban all Airports because one day , a plane will crash . Lets ban cars because someone in the U.S.A. will be killed in a car crash , after you finish reading this post .

Though I don't advocate something as inane as banning Rap stations, I won't post what amounts to an apologia for the violence that seems to permeate the Hip Hop scene either. What happened at the Busta Rhymes video shoot was especially embarrassing for Hip Hop enthusiasts because virtually the entire aristocracy of Hip Hop (Missy Elliot, Mary J Blige) was there to witness it. Face it, these aren't particulary auspicious days for the Hip Hop community, and matters will only get worse as the FCC now vigorously investigates Payola practices within the radio industry, especially since the most egregious payola payments were made to employees and management of Urban/Hip Hop stations and companies. (And you can look up an expose done by the website Salon.com about 3 or 4 years ago to learn about the rampant payola at those aforementioned Urban/Hip Hop stations)

To signal out one format is ridiculous.. Many hard rock bands have used drugs and talked about it in their lyrics, where is the outcry over that? To signal out strictly hip hop for societies problems is outrageous. There have been musicians who died because of rampant drug use, their format isn't banned.

Did it ever occur to you and those who are calling for this type of ban that it is a form of censorship?
You want to keep mentioning 2Pac... Sure, 2Pac did talk about the violence in his raps and lifestyle and yes, it lead to his death. But for every rapper out there like 2 Pac, there are others such as Rev. Run, formerly of Run DMC not promoting violence in his raps.. There is Ludacris who does activities in the Atlanta area for the children. One bans hip hop and folks who don't promote the violent lifestyle get blackballed, for lack fo a better word.
And for the record, yes I was a 2Pac fan, although I didn't condone the lifestyle he talked about in his lyrics.
BTW-for every negative lyric of 2Pacs that folsk want to rip, there are the "Brenda's Got A Baby" and the "Dear Mama" that he also wrote, promoting positive causes... but folks don't see the positives such as this.

I am an old man and I remember when the Jefferson Starship had songs praising the "weatherman" including a woman that was blowen up making a bomb (Dianna) "up against the wall m..f.. " was a chorus in a song of theirs...and remember the organist/music director of the "Christal Cathedrial" in SO Cal was held up with a gun against police (killed himself)...not to mention many violence associated with certain Morman cults ....

Overdosing on heroin causes harm primarily to the person injecting it into his veins, while taking out a pistol and firing wildly into a crowd of people (something that Gangsta Rap seemingly glorifies) can result in innocent people being killed, as was the case in Toronto, Canada the day after Christmas when an innocent girl was gunned down by a supposed "gang-banger" on a crowded downtown street. So which of the two is more morally reprehensible?! People are simply fed up with the glorification of casual violence in Rap Music, and also the incidence of casual violence among Rap performers and their crews!
