Emery
The hardest part for me to believe about your Will Smith story is the part about you having a job. If it's okay with you, I'm going to continue to picture you as part of the bathrobe brigade.
But you know I got nothing but love for ya

Some horror that slothered out of the mind of Mike O'Brien.

To them calling will Smith a rapper would be like calling bubblegum and jelly beans a hearty meal.
*******************
Strangely, Emery. Will was rapping before many of the people who insist he isn't a rapper were themselves rappers or even rap fans. But I know what you mean. Will's record label during the 90's (Sony?) told him to give it up when they dropped him in 2001 or so.
In a related matter: since some worship at the alter of informed opinions, it's important that one really know what the boom shaka they're talking about. So name a rap song or track or whatever that specifically encourages the rape and brutalization of women in general or of a specific woman or a "kind of woman."
Some don't want to be called racist but they're sure quick to denegrate black artists, entertainers, and popular culture. God Bless.

He's had that baggage from the start. I was in college when "Parents Just Don't Understand" came out, and from the get-go people where saying he didn't have genuine street-cred. He was kind of the Wayne Brady of rappers.

I totally accepted it as a word. Plus, it made me disdain Hot Dog Pie even more.

A rap song that encourages rape AND the brutalization of women. Lyrics edited for language.
Guilty Conscience (Eminem and Dre)
"Now listen to me, while you're kissin her cheek
and smearin her lipstick, I slipped this in her drink.
Now all you gotta do is nibble on this little b****** earlobe...
(Yo! This girl's only fifteen years old. You shouldn't
take advantage of her that's not fair)
Yo, look at her b**h...does it got hair? (Uh huh!)"
Later, in the same song, it advocates shooting your wife when you find her in bed with another man.
"What am I sayin? Shoot em both Grady, where's your gun at?"
Even though the song is presented as a debate between the good (Dre) and the bad (Eminem), in the end the bad side wins.

No fair, Matt. Not only did you answer the challenge with a good example, you further blew his point by using and Eminem song. (Eminem is white for those of you scoring at home).

Ah, but Eminem WANTS to be black!
Seriously, though, it's an easy point to refute, given that I can name a Beatles song, of all things, that advocates the brutalization of women (Run For Your Life, for those playing at home).
