I don't listen to rap but I did a little in college, including a little of the gangsta stuff. A Tribe Called Quest was musical and interesting and not gangsta at all. Hip Hop is just not for me, although I respect some of it, and I'm not in the "get off my lawn" stage in life (I will be one day). Rap, or Hip Hop, is a major musical art form. Black Americans, moreso than any other group, have created and contributed to so many musical art forms popular around the planet and music I enjoy listening too (blues, rock and roll in particular). I don't think any other group of people anywhere come close to creating so much music that's enjoyed by people everywhere. I spent a fair amount of time in Europe and I'd hate it if I had to listen just to that sh*tty Europe Dance Music all the time. The NFL is 70% black, rap is popular with players and fans, Snoop and Dre have toned down a bit and settled into old age, and the NFL is pushing some social justice stuff. I suspect a lot of the complaints come from republicans, many of whom have been told repeatedly, and believed it, that big business is your friend. It never was and certainly isn't today. The NFL is a big business with an agenda. Better accept it or watch something else on Sunday. Better get used to Silicon Valley and it's agenda. The old, established businesses that once supported Republicans exclusively don't have the same appeal to young Americans like the new, even bigger businesses including financial institutions on Wall Street. Even the US military is getting woke. We foreign policy elites who want to go to war with Russia cause they don't support gay rights and haven't embraced diversity. We had women's studies grads in Afghanistan teaching those pretty backwards and religiously conservative, people to be inclusive and accepting of all genders.
