Negative Effects of Rap Music on Teens

I have found a date on the internet said According to a 12-month follow-up research, “African-American teenage girls, participants who were exposed to rap music videos were "3 times more likely to have hit a teacher; more than 2.5 times as likely to have been arrested; 2 times as likely to have had multiple sexual partners; and more than 1.5 times as likely to have acquired a new sexually transmitted disease, used drugs, and used alcohol” researched by American Journal of Public Health

 From the date we can see that it’s true that listening to the rap , hip-hop music which contained violent expression or drug using did have some bad influent on teenage. And rappers themselves actually started out in the school of hard knocks, selling drugs. This kind of lifestyle may creat a nagativen image for teenage listeners. Teenages under 15 can hardly tell what is right or worng, they just do whatever they think is “ cool” and by listening to this kind of music may made they think that drugs and violence is “cool” , this is what’s everyone worry about.
