Reply to comment by Exiled_From_Twitter in How come rappers can get away with saying the most outrageous shit about women, but the second some indie acoustic pop whatever artist says something like “don’t be a slut” it’s considered the fall of western Fucking civilization? by [deleted]

Literally just search the last 10 years of pop stars/ singers accused of misogyny, while an entire genre of music raps about how many “bitches and hoes” they get.

Now google rap stars in trouble over lyrics and read the overwhelming amount of responses you will get. Quit glossing over reality to push some bs narrative bud. The last article isn't even about lyrics lol, it's about how Moby treated her personally.

Get real dude.
The reason you hear about one over the other is b/c of what you actively listen to. It's also important to note who each artist is targeting in their music. Hardcore rap is not going to be put under the microscope by their fans b/c they expect it, they don't care. Media will still go to great lengths to paint them in a negative light but the fan bases just don't give a shit. Same can't be said about these other people.
