Something that matters the most to me is music. My musical expression is essential to my true freedom. For me music has to stand for something, whether it is the deeper, personal meaning that exists within the song, or even if the music is a comment on the world that exists around us. Of course like everything free speech in music has its limits. Although I don’t enjoy the popular rap and hip-hop music that some of my peers do, I still think that everyone deserves to have the right to say what they want in music, the same way people have the rights to say what they want, by expressing their own personal style and lifestyle choices, and even by just speaking. Is there ever a point though, when this freedom of speech in music gets too far? For example, the foul language, and the degrading of women in many songs, is that too far? Even though I don’t like that kind of stuff i still believe that they have a right to say it.
