Rap music is it inspirational?
"Rap music is inspirational.Well, I'm both for and against. It depends what it's inspiring you to do. Say you were listening to a really provocative rap song, that might inspire you to go out a cause public havoc. It's all about what the rap music is and the message that the rapper is trying to get across."
"Eminem is an exampleI do believe rap music is inspirational and inspiring.. Most rappers have had a really hard upbringing / childhood and know real struggle and are proof that no matter how hard it can get.. You can get through it, I think someone like Eminem is probably the best proof of no matter what, you can pursue your dreams"
"It's true, some rap music is inspirational with a good messege, but not all of it, the majority is... Crude and stereotype promoting.While there are a few rap songs and artist I really respect for their messeges, there are also far to many rap songs that I just can't tolerate as an equal rights femanist with friends of all shapes and sizes. All the crude humor and cussing, the dehumanization of woman, the promotion of crime, I get that these are th realities of existing but it hardly inspires me. And the effects that rap and pop cultures are beging to have on
gender roles and general opinions are frustrating to me."
