The context of these musical genres is so destructive that so-called "good" artists are only fooling themselves if they think they can "clean up" this musical mess. So much of it is driven by gangs (and their "organized crime") that it's just a money machine for gangs to get stupid kids to buy into the self-indulgent, irresponsible, parasitic lifestyle.
First, it's music, then it's music videos, then fashion, then movies, then stylin', and TV glorification, then tatoos, then "don't snitch" marketing, then booze, then drugs, then crime, then death.
You gotta get your kids away from all this corruption. It starts by not letting them contribute to the success of these despicable people.
