It's supposed to be as abrasive as fuck, which it most certainly is.

Meh, I don't like abrasive music, just stuff that flows. Sonic Youth doesn't give me that, just like death metal and grindcore don't give me that.

Not really any song in particular, because frankly i dont like any. Have given it many chances and own quite a bit but till nothing takes.

I agree 100%, and I've definitely listened to my share. Then I get criticized by people who listen to it for listening to Radiohead, Pink Floyd, Velvet Underground, The Strokes, and so on... Fans of that genre are so close-minded the metalheads can make fun of them.

Wonderwall by Oasis isn't necessarily a bad song, but it's so overplayed I wish I was deaf everytime it comes on the radio.

What makes you think NWA were seriously endorsing those things? Do you think Slayer seriously endorses serial killing and nazism and whatnot? I think both are just examples of people trying to make hard-edged music with appropriately hard-edged lyrics. I don't take it particularly seriously. I'm pretty sure Ice Cube has a degree in architecture, he's not actually some violent gangsta.

I have no reason to think they aren't endorsing it. Have they said anything to that effect?

But I don't disagree. People who listen to those genres are such ass-wipes.

Exactly! "Ass wipes" is such a good phrase to use.

Me, either...

Asking if I'd write lyrics like that "for a buck" is weird way of asking the question. But would I write violent lyrics if they served the feel of the song? Sure.

To me NWA lines like "I'll slap you up side yo head wit 9 inches of limp dick" are pretty big red flags that the lyrics aren't meant to be taken literally or particularly seriously.

Do you think John Carpenter endorses psychos in halloween masks stabbing people to death simply because he made Halloween? Do think Francis Ford Coppola endorses mob violence because he made The Godfather? Do you need specific statements from them that they don't support those things or do you just assume they're just telling a story and not necessarily endorsing the behavior of the characters? If you answered no to those questions, I'm curious why you'd apply such a different standard to song lyrics.
