The demeaning sexual innuendo hidden in Hip hop lyrics

I cannot tell how but it just happened, in less than a month i was totally hooked up, yes deeply engrossed to the rhythms, rhymes and flashy fashion that accompanied its duel.

At the age of 18 just after i had finished high school hip hop became a major part of my life, i remember the first track i downloaded was the 'ALL I DO IS WIN' remix that i almost replayed all the time.I got to totally fall in love with it and found myself hating all the other genres of music except for gospel music.

Who on earth does not love one Slim Shady, the only white boy who disapproved critics. When i heard his songs on the radio, i definitely knew that hip hop and me would be inseparable, this was even more elevated by some of our very own Kenyan artists like Rabbit and Octopizzo whose lyrics and punchlines left my heart soothing in endless music.

Poetic wordplay and  flashy lifestyles is not however the only thing that would turn your head to hip hop, the videos will always have that lady, dressed in a complete birthday suit and the artist(e) saying words like b**ch, h**e and how many women they sleep with.

This is what makes me question the role of hip hop and other genres of music on respecting the sexuality of women .Have they literally taken our women to be sex machines, objects of blatant immorality and toys that are just there to satisfy men?

We  may not  realise  this but the reality is that the young generation listening to the the audio message and the the visual porn have an inconcievable future ahead. Hip hop is the only type of music that i believe always has a message that anyone can relate to in their daily life struggles. I mean if you cannot afford an inspirational book in the bookstores then you can download albums by Dr Dre, Eminem or Ice cube and you will definitely get inspired by their message.

What surprises me is that even the female hip hop artists now display their fellow women in words that are always censored. If they can refer to themselves with these curse words then you know that maybe the meaning of the words might not mean anything bad at all.
