You want to give the infamous zumba speech to someone you think
could really benefit from it? I’m kind of skeptical…
(At least, I think that’s the one you mean.)
But whatever, it’s public stuff. On YouTube, it’s titled
“Freedom From This Galut is Based on Sarah Imeinus Tzniut.”
I don’t see it on TorahAnytime.
the general consensus is that rap music tends to have a lot of vulgar language and the lyrics blatantly objectify women and speak poorly of human beings in general.
Vulgar language – check. Censored versions are often made.
(Other music is catching up, especially when it features rappers.)
Objectify women – check. (Other music did it first.)
Speak poorly of human beings in general – As in, it expresses negative views about humanity (probably not), or it doesn’t
reflect well on humans that we’ve created it (check)?
