Very Yewtree these days but it was acceptable/"Rock'n'Roll" then.<br /><br />Lots of Rap was homophobic/misogynistic/anti-Semitic but so was the society from which such songs came. <br />They're only #Problematic with the benefit of hindsight/revisionism.<br /><br />Nothing on "Death Certificate" is #Problematic.
