Music & Women

http://articles.cnn.com/2005-03-03/entertainment/hip.hop_1_hip-hop-black-women-spelman-college?_s=PM:SHOWBIZ
      Singers are disrespecting women in every way. Singers are writing lyrics where they just take black women as hos, bitches, and sluts. They get judged by the color of their skyn. A law student complained about a song that had been released by Nelly. His songs lyrics had words that offended black women. Taking them as prostitutes. I think that it is really unfair if anyone on the streets offfends a women walking by, so i think that it makes it worse if they get offended by a person they admire or like their music.Nobody shoud judje by appeariance of someone else, judje for what they really are; inoccents.
