My DS (15) has become very enthusiastic about a group of rappers who are called The Drain Gang. He keeps singing the lyrics to their songs around the house which are quite inappropriate (one song says "If I see weed I gotta light it") however he's always been a high achiever at school and has been very sensible in relation to drug and alcohol usage, he has proclaimed his indifference towards his friends' cannabis usage and whenever he drinks it is usually in the proximity of us on special occasions where we limit him to one or two beers. However another member of this "Drain Gang" is called young lean (lean is a popular american cocktail containing codeine) who has a hit song which says "Young lean's in the club for some morphine" - One can only be worried to what message this is putting out to him.
He also has taken an interest in the heavy metal band "The Burzum" which is fronted by a convicted racist and murderer, I questioned him on this and he says he only likes it for the "raw and atmospheric tones" - it only sounds like noise to me! I'm wondering if it's only a fad or if I'm the stupid one!
Would appreciate any advice from some parent's who have guided their children through similar stages!
