interesting X. I think he has matured, and says a lot of important things on his latest album.
But, it is easy for people to post some lyrics, and say that's trash, etc., without really trying to hear what he is saying.
Elvis was blamed for making kids misbehave, and there were record burnings etc. He couldn't even shake his hips on TV - it was censored. Seems silly today.
I think most kids are smart enough to listen, and take away the message (while enjoying the music), but thats just my opinion...
He sings about his life, and how he grew up around Detroit. In the end - it rings true with a lot of people, and he is spot on in some of his social commentary: White America, Cleaning out My Closet, etc. |
