Rap music of today is very opinionated. Some people, open-minded to the subject, may realize that this genre varies to an extreme extent of different styles. Others, close-minded to the subject, might have only had to hear one song that turned them away from this kind of music forever.

Teenagers of the 21st century will be more accepting to the obscenity and vulgarity of the music, as the generation prior, typically their parents, might even be offended to listen to rap music. This is because these different generations of people were brought up with different moral standards and acceptance to “vudu”.

If people were to be open-minded enough to examine the field of rap music, there we be a completely different outlook on it from the general population. If examined and sought out, an average rap song will contain a level of unnecesary swear words and obscenity, but out of that the artist will tie in metaphors and similies that might not even be found in the most beautiful poetry ever written.

Some people believe that rap artists have taken poetry to a higher, more respectable level with there music. To be able to write lyrics, express them verbally, and use the beauty of the English language all in one manner is outstanding. Talented artists have put extreme efforts into their music throughout their entire lives, just to be nagged on and criticized. These artists are frowned upon by a parent who is scared for their child, who, they don’t realize this music might actually help them in life. These artists are primarily judged before their message is even heard.

Besides rap being an amazing talent, and a way to set your spiritual side free, most people who listen to the music have already personally experienced the obscene events described through the artist’s lyrics. Most people don’t act on these events just because they heard of them in a song, these actions are usually adapted by themselves.

Overall, rap music may seem outrageuos at first glance, but after pursuing a deeper look into the meaning and experience of this unique music we should commonly realize that this genre of rap is only a way for humans to express ourselves in a matter that the general population is going to take a while to adapt to.

There is no acceptable reason to judge rap music as a bad influence on any individual because as far as the open-minded see it, more good will come of this music than bad.
