Group Topic: Negative Effects Of Rap Music On Youth
Class: 4F
Plan Of Investigation
“Negative Effects of Rap Music on Youth” is of the interest to our
group since many of our peers listen to rap music and we have seen
how it has negatively influenced them to perform illicit activities or
rebel against their superiors.

As students of English, we expect to improve in our writing and


reading comprehension skills. We intend to collect information for this
SBA by reading through some online articles and examining a few New
Age Rap songs online. We will use the collected information to write
our written report., reflections and to prepare for our oral presentation.

According to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent
Psychiatry, many of today's rap music contribute to a significant
amount of illegal activity that today's youth are taking part in; including
taking illegal drugs, early alcohol consumption; as well as illegal sexual
activity. It is believed that many youth who listen to rap music are
viewed to have more violent tendencies compared to those who do not
listen to rap music. This includes being more disrespectful and
aggressive towards their elders. A study from Emory University
concluded that teens between the ages of fourteen and eighteen who
listened to rap music roughly around fourteen hours a week were three
times more likely to get in a fight with a teacher, 2.5 times more likely
to find themselves getting arrested, and 1.5 times more likely to
partake in illegal activities. Another study from 2005 from the
University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine found that the top rap
songs for teens that year had seventy-seven percent mentions of drugs
and alcohol. This was a problem because for many teens, rappers are
what might be considered their idols, and a good majority of rappers
partake in using drugs as well as participating in gang violence. The
Pacific Institute of Research and Evaluation researched 1,200 California
community-college students (ages 15–25). The participants answered
survey questions about their music-listening habits, use of alcohol and
drugs, and aggressive behaviors like fighting. Clements concern
regarding hip hop and drug use seems to be true because the study
discovered that 70% of the students who listened to hip hop or rap
music had connections with their substance use and aggressive
behaviors.
