Quote:Nothing was made up. Myself and others I have spoken to validated what was played. By the way, I listen to all kinds of music, rap included, as do my kids - just not garbage.


I'll end with this - it has been eye opening for me to see people defend obscenity and degrading lyrics being played from a PA system at a public school where families were present. There used to a time when we valued children, protected them and strove to maintain innocence from the corruption of the world. Sadly it appears about half celebrate their exposure and think nothing is wrong with that.

I must say I really didn't expect the flack. The bottomline is that on many of the songs played, on the CDs they are from, you may have found rating labels which would probably clue-in a reasonable person that some of the music would have been inappropriate for the WHOLE crowd in attendance. But like I said earlier, it is a shame that as a society we are ambivalent to the lyrics and at the worst, see nothing wrong with some of the music being produced today.
