Democratic NYC Mayor, Eric Adams got me interested in understanding the negative impact of “drill music” on our society and our youth after I read an article where he was urging social media firms to ban drill rap videos that are glorifying  and promoting violence on their platforms.  Adams said it would be irresponsible to continue to give violent rap music videos a platform after Twitter banned former President Donald Trump for posting what it deemed as objectionable and inflammatory content. “We pulled Trump off Twitter because of what he was spewing. Yet we are allowing music displaying guns and violence. We allow this to stay on the sites, we are alarmed by the use of social media to really over-proliferate this violence in our communities. This is contributing to the violence that we are seeing all over the country.”  So, that lead me to wanting to drill down on “drill music”.    NYC Mayor Eric Adams declares war on Drill rap after it was blamed for spate of fatal shootings from would-be gangsters inspired by the violent lyrics NY Post: Eric Adams meets with drill rap artists after dissing the genre NYC Mayor Adams targets 'drill rap' videos on social media, saying they promote gun violence Jay-Z, Meek Mill, and More Push for Law to Prevent Lyrics From Being Used in Court Against Rappers to Prove Guilt

On today’s podcast I discuss why rap music is killing masculinity. It glorifies a lifestyle of gang banging, domestic violence, kids out of wedlock, and women being treated as disposable objects. Boys that try to emulate rap music end up weak and a product of the system. Everyone is paying the price for the lyrics we tolerate in rap music.  Links Supporting Discussion:  RAPPERS WITH BIG CRIMINAL RECORDS Single-Parent Families Cause Juvenile Crime (From Juvenile Crime: Opposing Viewpoints, P 62-66, 1997, A E Sadler, ed. -- See NCJ-167319) DETAILS YOU NEVER KNEW ABOUT DR.
