Do you think that the music industry should allow racist words to be used in songs?

As per the commands of Allah, we must never distort the names of man and women.We are the best creations of Allah and we have been commanded not to ever distort names. This is important for protecting the dignity of men and women at all places.
We can see that all of us have different potentials and we get all the sustenance from Allah/God/...../../ the creator of all universes. We can forgive or take just actions. Generalizations based on the race are always wrong as men and women individually determine their fates. Who who have chosen not to eb guided need to pe persuaded for praying for guidance from Allah and there is always a possibility to repent and seek forgiveness from Allah for the deeds that were committed in violation of the commands of Allah.
It is important to pray and seek guidance for making best pious responses for all in the neighbourhood, fraternities and others.
Say no to racist responses always
As a Muslim man , I never judge people on the basis of race as Allah will have no consideration of race on the Day of Judgement and there will be no respite for us once we have left this world .

Swear words, yes. Racist words, no. I think that the music artists need to express them selves using swear words. On the other hand, rappers, or any other kind of music artist, should not use racist words, because it would probably insult a fan, or a listener. Some people really like music with racist words, because, they might be the same color as the singer, so they can relate to what the singer is sayting. If the listener is a different color, they might take it very insulting. Thats it.

Swear words, definitely. Racist words, no. Not just one race listens to a certain music. If a white singer says the "N" word, it might be insulting to a black person. If a black singer says "N" word, I think it's not insulting. It really depends on who is saying it to. Just to be on the safe side, racist words should be in music.

Racist words should not be allowed to be used in songs by the Music industry. By using such words the singers life might also be in danger because when people listen to these songs and hear the racist words, which are about their race, the people become angry and might even kill the guy. Especially, in Toronto, racist words should never ever be allowed to be used because killing someone in Toronto is a common thing nowadays, but you can use racist words if you want to die and if you do not like your life. lol. joke. So, I would say no.
