Misogyny in rap music

RussWarf [Edit] [Delete] 12:09, 11 January '09

So, some NWA just came onto my ipod on shuffle. I know a lot of people on here regard Straight Outta Compton as a classic hip-hop album and I love the album musically too. However, I always wince whenever a partucularly disgusting piece of misogyny turns up... which is quite frequent ("What about the bitch that got shot? Fuck her. You think I give a damn about a bitch? I ain't a sucka" being a pretty good example!). Do others have problems with this sort of thing in lyrics? It pretty much ruins the record for me.
