Noel Gallagher, member of Oasis, declared in a recent interview that he hates hip hop and the negative message given to fans. Noel reprobated Eminem and 50 Cent "for encouraging dangerously high levels of violence in British youths."
"I despise hip-hop. Loathe it. Eminem is an idiot and I find 50 Cent the most distasteful character I have ever crossed in my life. It's so negative.
"I'm not saying they are directly responsible, but that's how you end up with these gangs of youths stabbing people. Kids are so thick these days. They're easily influenced."
Oasis has been recently named as the most successful act of the nineties in Britain and their latest album, "Don't Believe The Truth", released in May, was a major success.
