Rap music that glorifies gun violence, killings and retaliations should have no place on social media, New York City Mayor Eric Adams declared on Friday, saying that he would meet with Big Tech representatives to ask them to crack down on “drill rap.”
As he declared a war on drill rap – a music genre that originated in Chicago in the early 2010s before spreading to New York – Adams revealed that he was not a connoisseur of the local rap scene. He admitted that he “had no idea what drill rapping was” until recently and had to ask his son to debrief him.
“He’s sent me some videos, and it is alarming,” the mayor said, adding that he would “bring in” the social media companies to “show [them] exactly what has been displayed” on their platforms that prompted his concern.
