Oh no, freedom of speech! No doubt there was no violence before Gangsta Rap! Compton was heaven on Earth before gangsta rap! Bloods and Crips were best friends before gangsta rap! Police brutality is a myth!

Look, if you don't like Gangsta Rap, fine, it's not for everyone. And no, it's not good when rappers commit actual crimes, but to say Gangsta Rap creates violence is nonsense. Violence creates music. Damn good music.
