What do you mean, rap?
I'm sure someone asked that over lunch last week.
It's all more complicated than I thought, let's put it like that.
I can opine about provocative lyrics, male/female discourse, values, political correctness etc etc., but if I was around the characters who gave detailed analysis of the history and who made fine distinctions between the subcultures, I'd probably keep my mouth shut.
Looks to me like a territory where you can make a complete pig's bottom of yourself. And maybe get shot.
I guess it's not a musical culture your father is going to delight in if you bring the language round the dining table.
I own an Eminem CD though. Does that establish my credibility to talk about it?
