| | Gangsta Misogyny by Edward G. Armstrong - JCJPC, Volume 8, Issue 2 |
 | | A common viewpoint was that the "reign" of gangsta rap music had ended (Klein 1998) and that gangsta rap music was "in ruins" (Smith 1997). | | | Potter (1995) and Yancy (1997) hold that criticisms of gangsta rap music's violent and misogynist lyrics unfairly remove the lyrics from their "context." According to Rosen and Marks (1999), gangsta rap music's violent and misogynist lyrics are "parodic signifying." The lyrics are humorous poetic contrivances. | | | Kitwana (1994) calls critics of gangsta rap music "uninformed" and suggests that they should listen to the music. |

| | Gangsta Rap |
| | Gangsta rap or hard-core rap is the major target of organizations like the PMRC and that could be because these adults don’t listen to rap. | | | Instead of trying to cover up the lives of these rap artists by applying parental advisory labels to their music the solution should be to improve the lives of the children growing up in these horrific neighborhoods where they see drugs or murder everyday then they can’t rap about that. | | | Tupac Shakur - was a gangsta rapper who very often rapped about his chidhood and the atomosphere he grew up in, but was often ridiculed for the lyrics he put on his album. |

| | Talk:Gangsta rap - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | OK, I thought this was clear, hip-hop is a culture, rap is a music that belongs to hip-hop, thus, there is no such thing as "gangsta hip-hop", and it's not valid to claim that "gangsta rap" is a type of hip-hop, however it's correct to claim that gangsta rap is a type of rap. | | | While Mafioso rap contains violence and profanity, it isn't to the extremities of that of so-called "gangsta rap". | | | Killarmy aren't gangsta rap either, though their lyrics are fairly heavy on violence. |

| | Gangsta Rap, more than a pressure release, is a reflection of the horrendous suffering, pain and frustration of ghetto-life in the Hood. | | | Though some of the lyrics in Rap songs are insidiously disgusting, the living conditions in the ghettos where these lyrics originate are abhorrent beyond comparison. | | | To affect silence in the face of our failures is a far worse crime than the effects of Gangsta Rap music and would stand diametrically in the face of decency and the epitome of cowardice. |

| | David Brooks vs. gangsta rap. By Jody Rosen |
| | French rap lyrics today are like the American gangsta lyrics of about five or 10 years ago, when it was more common to fantasize about cop killings and gang rape. | | | In today's column, Brooks takes his shtick overseas and into the realm of pop music with a denunciation of "French gangsta rap." Citing the prevalence of hip-hop culture among "the rioters"—"poor young Muslim men" from Parisian banlieues and other French slums—Brooks goes on to to spin a theory of global gangsta rap hegemony. | | | They seem to have replicated the same sort of gang culture, the same romantic visions of gunslinging drug dealers… The images, modes and attitudes of hip-hop and gangsta rap are so powerful they are having a hegemonic effect across the globe. |
