There is something to that. Many "middle-aged" people I know won't even
try to listen to the more AJ-oriented rap that I'll play for them. "I
don't like rap" is the immediate and reflexive response.
Then again, this music wasn't made for those "middle-aged" people in the
first place!! So, it isn't fair to judge it in that way.
