^^ there are so many more violent groups / lyrics out there...not just in the genre of rap / hiphop ...
...this is an age old discussion...yes people can be influenced to a certain degree by music but i believe this all hinges on the mental stability of the individual listening...
...jus cos i heard gravediggaz suicide lots when i was younger didnt mean i did it..or even contemplated it because of the music...but then again if i was very impressionable sort of person / on certain drugs maybe i woulda taken their advise...
...ya get me ?
Some people are ...and will always be more balanced than others...thats harsh reality of life...to ban a release just in case is ridiculous...lead to cult status of the banned record..and probably the record will be used specifically for that purpose by a small minority because that is how they came to know it "banned".

The Watcher:
when you were listening to gravediggaz, you probably weren't already in a mind state where you were wanting to kill someone or bury them alive etc.. that's what this is about. the kid was already depressed and/or unstable and listening to ICP probably didn't help it @ all
D.R.E.-Dogg:
music doesn't have to help keeping people from commiting suicide.. he probably chosed this music cuz of his depression or shit, if it wasn't for the music he woulda found something else.. there's nothing to blame the artists for at all
