Will Imus Actually change Music?




Imus has started changing a lot of things in the entertainment business and he isn't even trying. All it took was for him to get fired before everyone would start looking at why he got fired.

Many are now blaming Imus for an investigation into rap lyrics. Yes, they are now looking at it and wondering if certain words should be used in songs, especially since Imus was fired because of him using them. Russell Simmons, has even went as far as to say that certain words should be such as: "Bitch, Ho and the N'word." He states that they are all extreme curse words. I must agree, after all how would you feel hearing a 5 or 11 year old saying these things?

However, since the removal of Imus many radio hosts have been very careful with their tongue. No one wants to slip up or they'll be shipping out!

Imus has been fired...

As everyone across the globe knows by now...Imus has been fired. But how do you feel about it? Will firing Imus be the beginning of controlled radio? Will it change? First it was Howard Stern (and boy did I love him) and now it is Imus. (he will be missed)

My question is, will they go after Rosie O'Donnell next? I'm sure by now Rosie has heard everyone asking that very question. this is a lady that is constantly saying things that had controversy to "The View." But is it all to be taken just as a joke or seriously. It was only recently...well in the last 6 months that she insulted the Chinese and after that she attacked Miss America.

I do wish Imus well, and hope he can find another gig.
