Part 3/6:
The Double-Edged Sword of Hip-Hop Culture
Despite the artistic expression and cultural significance of hip-hop, the hosts argued that it often glamorizes gang violence, betrayal, and death. They noted that while many might resist acknowledging this, the consequences are grave—especially for the innocent.
