Just as there is in rock and other popular music, as evidenced by the list of songs submitted in answer to the original question. (Funny, no other rap artist was mentioned except Eminem...) Violent or misogynistic lyrics in rap music appear in a subgenre of the music - largely made popular by suburban white kids looking for their "punk rock" rebellion. Rap music as a whole is so much more than that and to generalize about the music in that way is unfair and unfortunate. If anyone is truly interested in learning about the music outside of the Eminem's and Jay-Z's of the world, let me know and I'll happily send you a mix CD. Brenda Oh yeah....I have a new email address (for anyone interested) - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Was getting wild amounts of Korean spam at my old one. n.p.: Norah Jones - Don't Know Why (She's fantastic!)
