Well, my thing with that is...what music that's "popular" today is really suitable for young listeners anyway? I mean, short of maybe Hillary Duff or somebody, what on the radio does the young audience need to hear in the first place? More than likely, this station is not playing Hillary Duff, but Missy, Jay-Z, Ludacris and the like, so name me ONE song that a young person SHOULD be listening to off of their CDs. So, its ok to play the song about "da life", hoes, and materialism as long as you bleep out the n-word???? Is that really more important than the rest of the song?
"If you feelin like a pimp, n---a, gon' brush yo shoulders off", without the n---a bleeped is wrong, but its ok, if you bleep out that one part? What about the middle finger to the law, and the husltin?
I think for a lot of Black people, racial "respect" is more important than perosnal integrity.
