Music should evoke peaceful emotions, not violence. Yes, there are rap songs that are not harmful in any way. But some songs and rappers just cross the line with their constant inappropriate language and sexual messages. When people turn on the radio, they shouldn't suddenly hear that kind of language. Women are now not called ladies, but instead are called a bunch of other fun words, most likely due to some rap songs. The main problem with rap is that most of us have adjusted to it, or given into it. Once that happens, we become used to those crude messages, and accept them as a part of our society, which we shouldn't. We should be above that by now.

Doesn't do as much harm as people claim, in my experience. However, don't get me wrong; I dislike the genre.

Look it's the rappers that let out their anger in the songs describing what's happened in their lives. It's not intended to put down people it's intended to put down the people they don't like. Besides if you don't like it, stay out of it!!!

Rap music is a new genre which was not there in our past. Over the years new and updated musicians have developed this form of music giving it a universal approach. Nowadays rap music is being considered as a whole new and separate genre and at the same time rap is also included in many other songs from other genres. As we all know that rap means Rhythm And Poetry, thus it is clear that a rhythm is accompanied by poetry. So what harm can poetry possibly do? It is just not a reason that since they are not like the other genres so they are of no use and they are causing harm. Music can never cause harm to anybody. There are people who like rap music, they perform rap music and they love doing that, so it can never be harmful in any way.
