They probably dislike it so much because of the allegedly overt use of profanity, sex, drugs, violence, etc. in the lyrics. As someone previously alluded, it's a scapegoat in the same sense as heavy metal music/Marilyn Manson was blamed for the Columbine school shootings. Always blaming the liberal media and Hollywood entertainment industry anytime there is a school shooting tends to be the typical conservative mantra nowadays, which is a bit ironic because I thought conservatives were the ones who preach personal responsibility and do not believe in victimization.

They could also dislike it so much because the majority of their audiences listens to country music with lyrics about God, farming, hunting, drinking beer, the good ole USA, Mom's apple pie, and other aspects of the "real America." In other words, I'd venture to say that they simply do not understand rap music, and most people fear what they do not understand.

I listened to rap and hip hop in high school and I've never pulled a trigger in my life.
