Hip Hop/Rap music is known to objectify and belittle women by calling them all sorts of names for example. In our survey, the main focus was misogyny. The answers that we received were a bit contradictory. For instance, we had a question asking if hip hop music that talked “bad” about women was offensive towards them; the most popular answer was that they did not find it offensive. On the contrary, an open ended question in our survey was, ” How would you feel about your younger sister or daughter listening to rap music?” The majority of our answers were around the same range of not allowing them and simply being against it because of the message that the young ones could take in. This showed a tremendous contradiction because they said that they were not offended by the word choice in some of the songs but at the same time, they would not allow young girls listening to these types of songs. Since the majority of our respondents were female, we can agree that our initial thought that misogyny is a big factor in hip hop music was proven.
