Music videos have never been something that are known for being conservative, especially rock and rap videos. Based on the things I've heard about the "Tipdrill" video, it would be offensive, even to me, someone who considers herself not easily offended. I have no desire to watch the video as I've heard many describe it as basically, porn. Making music with "raunchy" lyrics is one thing, but making a music video that is just as disgusting, seems pointless to me. Ok, so you like women, you enjoy sex, you do drugs, fine...but is it really necessary to feature this kind of stuff in all of your music and all of your music videos? Are you just going for shock value or do you really lack that much talent that you can't think of anything else to talk about in your music?
Eminem, even though not my cup of tea when it comes to music, I've always thought was quite talented but still, I hear some of the things he raps about and my previous thoughts come to mind. At the same time though, I laugh at some of the lyrics I hear in today's music.
I love music and always have but at lot of the crap I hear and see today, I don't really consider to be music, but that is just my opinion. It takes all kinds and all tastes so I respect what anyone likes, but I personally just don't get it.
