[QUOTE="weaselqt, post: 68654, member: 3989"] I personally do not care for rap either - but I have heard Eminem's new stuff and appreciate what he is trying to say. The song about his girls seems as if he has realized his past mistakes and wants them to know that he is therer for them now - and how he cannot change the past - that is my take. But why does everyone pick only on rap? Last year at our elementary school talent show tryout - we had several little girls sing "Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood (country) - okay - I like the song, I'm 35 years old - but it was kind of a bit eerie hearing a 7 year old belt out "Right now, he's probably slow dancin' with a bleach blonde tramp and she's probly gettin' frisky" etc., etc. A lot of music today is so bad - country, love songs, rock, rap, hip hop, etc. I am open to many genres of music and can appreciate a good message - but I do prefer rock (metallica) and my music I choose hasn't corrupted me. My children are like me - they like many genres - even oldies - but I feel that since I am raising them to know good from bad (not saying they always listen - haha) that my children make good decisions about their music and it has not affected them in any bad way My difficult child has a CD mix of country, rap, hard rock, rock, hip hop, and last, but not least, a few songs from Phantom of the Opera and some musicals!!! Go figure - easy child daughter does too!! Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
