I hope Millie (tw) doesn't see this, she'll be very upset.

it was sarcasm, I obviously need to add tags.

one minute we are supposed to review how our Police (and in fact all officials) treat people based on their skin colour yet endemic cultural misogyny and support of crime is endemic in 'black' music.

I've heard a lot of exceptionally offensive songs.

It's the normalisation of the offensive that is really jaw dropping.

But if you turn it around, it wouldn't make sense to say that you shouldn't review how our Police (and in fact all officials) treat people based on their skin colour, on the basis that cultural misogyny and support of crime is endemic in 'black' music.

As a starting point, I don't think it should be banned (legally censored) any more than I think "Love Your Neighbour" should be banned (legally censored) - I'm not equating the two, just giving two examples. Having said that, I do think that there are extreme cases where music and other formats enter the "Inciting hatred" or "Inciting violence" categories, and in these cases there should be a legal mechanism for prosecution which could result in a conviction and censorship. The bar should be fairly high as freedom of expression is important.

Next, record labels should be pressured to remove songs like this from their catalogues.

Most difficult is persuading people not to listen to or watch misogynistic and similar content - I expect there's all sorts of nasty misogynistic pornography out there as well. It's a long slog to change opinions as to what is acceptable.
