The Right hated Rock and Roll back in the 1950s because you had white kids listening to dangerous 'race music.'

Same with rap in the 90-00s and even still to this day to some extent.

And I’m pretty damned sure some moderate liberals were wrapped up in it as well. It is America after all, where everyone’s a judgmental bigot.
