Music is personal. If it doesn't affect your faith or values, why worry? People will always judge. Just do what feels right for you.

Some people believe this people got most of their music from an ocultic source. Although some of their music content may be meaningless, were some may be meaningful. The meaningful one can be listening to. Moreover, are you been judged by your mind and conscience anytime you listen to this music? If your conscience doesn't judge you and it isn't against the doctrine of your religion, then I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Music is meant to send meaningful message to it's listeners and it doesn't have to be some lyrics that praises the name of some supernatural god of some adherents before it could be said to not be worldly. Though some people are too religious that even songs which sends messages about romance which could be enjoyable to listen by couples still turns to be referred to as some ungodly songs. It's kinda stupid though but It's my opinion that people should just listen to musucs that lifts their spirit, give them joy and doesn't have swear words or hate words in them and forget what others have to say.

Do our hip-hops' musicians still sing song that pass messages today? They hardly sing that. All we dance to today is beat. No matter the content, we aren't bother so far the beat is highly danceable. The problem here is a musician that sang beautiful lyrics today may tomorrow sing song with a meaningless lyrics. This reason alone has made some christians to classify almost all hip-hops to be ungodly.

Good music is said to heal the soul. Any sane person would know good music when they listen to one whether it's hip-hop or any other genres of songs. For example, I don't just listen to any kind of music that doesn't soothe my heart, am very selective of music I listen to and that's why with the proliferation of unreasonable hip-hop musics nowadays it doesn't meet my listening pleasure no matter how great the beats. Just that we now have many none meaningful hip-hop songs doesn't make it right to classify all hip-hop songs as ungodly, we should have to educate such people about the difference.

Well, you are right @letteredhub. The fact that we have many meaningless hip-hop songs nowadays shouldn't make us classify all hip-hop songs as ungodly but the main problem here is that the meaningful ones are less when compare to the meaningless ones. And most of our youths are highly attach to this meaningless ones than the meaningful ones. There are some songs that shouldn't have been produced to the public as it promote immoral and indiscipline. The funniest thing is that musics has no control like drama which they may place caution for some certain age.
