Funny how you are getting bent out of shape over "Fiddy Cent" and singling him out when this country has forever made money off of immorality ( remember slavery)
I agree.

100% agree. The tenacity of the core audience to the culture is rooted in their very failure - and hence a lot of rapping about *******, drugs, guns, killing people, etc. etc. This is all they know and the best they think life has to offer...and sadly, each generation ends up proving it right over and over again...
