Re: Is music to blame for all the violence in our World?
 

I dont know if we can directly blame music and video games for human violence, I just think it gives us an outlet. I have never even had so much as a speeding ticket, yet all I listen to is rap and all I play is first person shooters. However, I can make a clear distinction between "this is music / video game" and "this is real life".

Some people cannot make the distinction and are more impressionable so they hear 50 Cent rappin about "4 ni**as strapped in grandpa's cadalliac" (from the song "Whoop yo head boy"), and they think thats how they should be living.

And, to be factual, many black youth listen to this rap and dont see it as just a song, but a way of life and so they imitate it.
