I'm not a fan of Rap, but I certainly wouldn't be childish enough to boycott an establishment because they played it. However, I might not continue to go if that's all they played, but I would say that about any genre of music. I think we need to grow up and smell the coffee, we're aging, and we're sounding more like our parents and in some cases, our grand parents.
My thoughts exactly.
