Rapper Twista has hit out at church leaders who have branded hip-hop music “trash” and degrading to women. Chicago-based church The Faith Community of Saint Sabina has attacked ten of the most popular rap artists in the U.S. – including 50 Cent & Snoop Dogg in a new advertising campaign. The group has put up twenty billboards throughout Chicago urging people to “stop listening to trash” – but Twista insists rap artists are being unfairly blamed for violence. You are not being unfairly blamed for violence. You promote violence, which results in black on Black crime. Get a clue man. Kids are vulnerable. Not only is rap to blame for violence but also the raunchy television shows. These produce music videos as if they were promoting adult shows and not their own so called ‘creativity’ on air.
