> more a destruction of shared cultural values, in particular those that are good for "society" like a belief in the value of work, family unit, deeper concerns than material wealth (e.g. god/spirituality) etc at least in the west / America.

This is what conservatives have been crowing about since the 40/50's when black music started dominating the airwaves. It's a really old argument that is literally moral panic with no proof. I thought maybe you had some new thoughts to add, but you don't.

If you think only 50s Conservatives find some parts of rap questionable I propose an experiment. Show some NWA lyrics without attribution to a young, progressive audience, there's some interesting takes in there about homosexuals, jews and women.

Of course we don't even play 90% of that stuff any more because any radio station would be cancelled within five minutes and not by conservatives.

Thanks for adding a subtle accusation of racism or at least guilt by association to the discussion.
