Both are scum and never figured out why people glorified their life. I see football players called scum here for allot less. I guess maybe NFL players are held to a higher standard then MTV. No telling how many kids copied them and are dead today or have killed coping them.

I'd have to agree with this completely.
We're talking about their music, not their personal lives.

Can we really separate them? Their lyrics included the same glorification of drugs, sex, murder and violence as their lifestyles.

I think the football equivalents would be Pacman Jones and Lawrence Phillips.

What would say about songs like Changes(Tupac)? Just ignore those, huh?

Their songs also reflected their backgrounds and upbringing. Reality often isn't a pleasant thing to look at or hear about.

Irrelevant.
I can appreciate the art even though I may not agree with the lifestyle of the artist. Again we're talking about two separate things.
