That material gets absorbed differently by the different social spheres. Those FAANG kids might listen to it, enjoy it, maybe as a way to rebel, escape or act cool, but it's not part of their culture. They will grow up to be like their FAANG parents and, in turn, also look down on it.
It's not like I never enjoyed 50 cents.
The problem is when it's part of the culture to the point where it's internalized.

Sure, "50 cents"
