From a CNN story on the rapper Common:
Lyrically, violence has never been his thing; soft-drug use has been mentioned but rarely glamorized; he removed homophobic references from his lyrics years ago; and while there have been hints of misogyny and the occasional N-word in his verses, neither has been a staple of his rhymes.
Well, as long as they’re not staples, that’s okay, then. I’m glad we had this talk.
