DJ Wizz, special guest Deleon McKee, and Reign talk about music - specifically Hip Hop or Rap, lyrics, content and different artist in Hip Hop. Reign mentioned DaBaby is one of her favorite current artists because he is more relatable, Deleon disagreed due of some of his lyrics towards women and thats when things got interesting.

Should it be the artists responsibility to keep their lyrics positive or should it be on the individual consuming the music to make the decision to listen?
