Do you think some music has really toxic and misogynistic/misandristic lyrics?

Yes - I believe music influences your life so you have to watch what you choose to absorb and sing to. It's one of the reasons I like religious music, religious music isn't perfect but there is a higher chance of moral perfection when you listen to religious music. I listen to a lot of Jewish music even though I speak almost no Hebrew. Jewish music is often very pure and blameless and the other thing is a lot of Jewish music is in English such as "we are are a miracle," or "in a song," by Yeshiva Boys Choir.

Yeah but thats a part of freedom of speach. And I support freedom of speach so am glad people can make songs like that. Even if I dont agree with what they are saying.

Also I wouldn't take someone seriously for their songs just like I wouldn't in a movie.:)

Whatthefluff · Answer

Of course. A lot of rap music is misogynistic and pompous. This derives from antebellum southern whites, which was adopted by the black community.

inhua · Answer

perhaps but they also contain a lot of red-pill truths about the world

musicians often make music that is somewhat influenced by their life

for example Taylor Swift writes songs about her "abusive relationships"

and rappers write songs about committing crimes that attract lots of hoes

Deformate · Answer

Probably but its just music. A personal opinion made musical. Mjght even be satirical in nature. Its like a joke. doesn't mean anything. With that in mind, my answer is; Maybe, but why invest too much time thinking about it. If you like it, remember it. If not then just move on.

Definitely - I’d say most Crap - I meant rap I don’t listen to it but you can’t help but hear it when these idiots either stop at a stoplight or you’re stuck in traffic a car length or so away from them and they are sonic booming that junk so loud you hear it through even rolled up windows!

OddBeMe · Answer

Yes. Just as some movies have horroristic scenes of brutality and sex. Does that affect children or adult behavior? Not in the least says dozens of research papers.

I imagine it’s the same for music. Would it be nice if all songs were about happiness? Actually no. Narratively we need conflict to make a story, song or otherwise interesting.

Sonorous · Answer

Yes. And the goal is probably to shout to the world what their perspective is. Because they probably believe that their way of thinking is right.

Mostly rap / hip hop music has these, but as i don't listen to these kind of music i can't tell how many of these songs actually have this kind of lyrics.

MikeTheBartender · Answer

Tons of music.. always found it odd when I'd bartend in a club and girls would sing or dance to songs that degrade them

Pyrofox · Answer

Of course it does and most people can't handle the truth.

safricanluke · Answer

Of course! A lot of rap, hip-hop, rock, pop, and club songs have extremely misogynistic lyrics. I haven't ever heard misandristic lyrics, but I don't doubt that they do exist.
