In a developed and diverse society today, conveying messages through art and social media has become easier than ever. However, the use of offensive, vulgar, or disrespectful language by artists, especially rappers, is still an issue that needs to be strongly rectified.
Recently, the case of rapper B Ray using the rap line "I call Amee my brother /Because I want to sleep with all the beautiful girls" in a livestream caused a strong wave of criticism from public opinion. This is not the first case, but it is certainly a serious warning for the art industry in general and the online community in particular.
Artists, especially those with influence like B Ray, if not careful in their expressions, can create deviant messages, negatively affecting the community, especially young people. Such offensive language not only reduces the value of art, but also hurts others, especially women.
Looking at the B Ray case, it can be seen that the lack of maturity in behavior has caused the artist to lose points in the eyes of the public. This not only harms the personal reputation of the artist but also affects the entertainment industry in general.
The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Culture and Sports promptly intervened to handle the case, but this also shows a reality that there are no clear and strict regulations on artists' behavior towards the community, especially in the digital environment.
To avoid similar unfortunate incidents in the future, artists need to have self-awareness of the impact of their words and behavior on society. B Ray's apology and apology is a right step, but more importantly, the change in his actions in the coming time. Artists need to have measures to improve their personal image, from focusing on words to participating in educational and positive community activities.
We cannot deny that art is a means to help people express their personality, but freedom in creativity must go hand in hand with responsibility. Artists may still continue to create unique and attention-grabbing art products, but that does not mean they are allowed to use vulgar language to attract attention.
The issue of offensive language in the art world, especially in the rap scene, is becoming an issue that needs to be strictly controlled. There need to be clear and strict regulations to ensure that artists do not abuse their power to convey out-of-standard messages, especially on social media platforms. Actions like B Ray's case are a lesson for artists, they need to always remember that their influence is very large and can change society in both positive and negative directions. Therefore, there needs to be the joint effort of the entire community and management agencies to create a healthy, sustainable art environment and contribute to enhancing socio-cultural values.
I also like many rappers, especially Den Vau because some of his raps are very pleasing to the ear in many music products. Young people also like rap because it is suitable for dynamism. But singers and musicians should not turn rap songs into... trash.
