Like i said last time this bullshit came up, is that their definetly has been racist rap before, and it didn't become popular because most people can tell the difference(maybe you cant)between dark satirical humor and and legit hate. hey, i even found some for ya http://www.soundclick.com/bands/defa...?bandID=276238 Quote:

It's very relevant because they seem to want to make him their next poster child right now. I've seen countless HT ads featuring Tyler, they're building off the buzz. What I meant by "That being said" was that many artists who have been sponsored by Hot Topic in the past have featured horrific and shocking lyrics, like Wu Tang Clan. What I meant by the sentence was that I can see the unfairness behind the criticism, but it has a lot to do with the context in which OFWGKTA has been introduced. Basically, you're arguing that two wrongs make a right. If Tegan and Sara don't target everyone, they can't target anyone. So what if they're targeting Odd Future? OFWGKTA happens to be the biggest buzzband that's come about in a while, and they have more horrifying lyrics than most groups. These lyrics can easily be misconstrued with a teenage audience. Seems legitimate to me. By the way, good job with the condescending, pretentious attitude. Why is it that a normal, rational discussion has to take that tone? I did very little to provoke a response such as the one you provided. I'm glad to see that people mature.

Also, let me say that its not their opinions on Tyler, the Creator that bothers me about Tegan & Sara. It's this "call for change" they speak of. No, I dont want the world getting more PC then it already is. Because really, where do you draw the line on censorship? There'll always be someone out there offended by something.

I'm all for cultural change in hip hop, just don't target the one group that is actually doing something positive. Quote:

Well my line of argument is very different from the other member on here. And, as I said previously, I like Tyler and OFWGKTA. I'm not just saying, "Oh they're wrong, and homophobes." I'm trying to have a discussion based on a view of both sides of the coin, an ability you apparently lack. By the way your spelling and demeanor are so bad you must be tweaking. Or maybe just a prick, I can't tell either way. Sorry to have provoked this terrible rage. I didn't know that you were actually in OFWGKTA.
