* also, the fact that "rap music has a history" with gang culture is just a statement. It's like saying "Anerica has an established history of white power movements." It's not a defense. Just because something is, doesn't mean it should be. You're smart enough to grasp the logic of this.
In other words "that's how it's always been" is a bullshit excuse.
Not even talking about YG's music here. I'm talking about the overt promotion of extreme violence to teenagers.
Talk all you want, but that shit isn't ok, or respectable, in any way.
