Scientists in the United States found that chilled-out and peaceful lyrics make people more peaceful in their lives. Reggae artists have known this for years, but finally top boffins are catching onto the idea.
So much for all those young guys who listen to hard and scary sounds, and claim it helps them to get rid of their agrression! The scientists found when people listen to aggressive music, with aggressive lyrics, surprise, surprise, they also act more angrily. So throw away all those gangsta rap records, and go out and buy some soulful postive hiphop from the Roots (http://www.okayplayer.com). You'll be making your own small contribution to world peace.
