Is slave music upsetting?
Everyone has an opinion. In my opinion, I have never heard slave music (well i think) but I'm sure it is. Why? 1) Most songs have a story behind it and slave music must have a terrible story behind. Sometimes if there is a fun upbeat song you don't pay attention to the lyrics, but I'm sure the majority of slave songs are slow and sad. Like i said in the beginning i have never heard slave music so could be wrong.
