    "not true"

    majority of the billboard charters today are hip hop but alright bro.

    smh you're missing the point my g. I'm saying that the mainstream made it the moral choice to hate rap music because it's a black genre. same way it happened to jazz. same way it happened to blues music. and in the SAME EXACT fashion, it took a white rapper, Eminem, to take the genre to new heights and make it popular for many white people to enjoy and accept it.

    because all women are monolith

    same could be said about the “there’s a certain degree of cognitive dissonance women need in order to be able to enjoy most of rap music” statement

    maybe there's a certain degree of cognitive dissonance within herself. but not "women"

    Most women aren't needlessly overanalyzing rap lyrics

    the cognitive dissonance is that people pretend enjoyment of rap music isn't a more vital mediation between the perceptible and one's real self than these post-feminism codes of behavior that people represent themselves as believers in

    Not every woman is offended by rap lyrics. There is no cognitive dissonance if you're just enjoying art for what it is.

    Whoever made that statement really thought she was gonna get a pulitzer prize for that bullshit

    Kendrick was 100% right on family ties, the fake woke twitter pandering has got to stop.

    "As a heterosexual woman, I really like this song where this charismatic and boisterous man exerts his dominion and control over the world (including the women in it). Too bad I have been taught that rejection of the abstract concepts of misogyny and toxic masculinity mean liking those traits is bad, even though my revealed preference is for finding them captivating."

    To be fair before rap became the biggest genre it was still scrutinized heavily, especially once it started to cross over.

    But idk I mean there are women who would tell you they don’t find it offensive. And nowadays I feel like we are seeing more women rappers who are flipping it, i.e city girls and similar acts. I think the tweet is valid but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal… but I’m not a woman so who am I to say that

    other genres had active feminist movements within em as well (disco) which hip hop didnt have when it first started.

    There was a reason U.N.I.T.Y. wasn't just a hit but a MOMENT when it dropped. It was a response to not just the misogyny in the world but also in hip hop lol.

    Eminem was (rightfully) getting some of the most hate though.

    What y’all think? In my opinion… are you really enjoying the music if the lyrics offend you? Why not listen to something else?

    Rappers been dogging women out since the 80s, but they still enjoy it just as much as niggas do, probably more.

    Women are the main consumer and purchasers of music

    All of the “misogynistic” things said in rap (it’s not actually misogynistic, maybe toxic) is the type of s*** women like to hear, but most men nowadays are too afraid to do it or say it
    There’s a reason why 50 Shades of Gray sold so much

    Edit: and women, in my experience, like toxic s***.

    Next time a girl really likes you, tell her to do that and I bet it will go well for you
