It doesn't fit the demographics of the people that are the NASCAR event.

Please post a few examples of "typical" NASCAR goer's musical preferences.

My kids started watching a new show Boss Baby on Netflix for 3-5 year olds and the theme song is gangsta rap style but with lyrics that are for kids. I guess this is what the marketing types think we want to hear.

OP is TRIGGERED AGAIN! The butthurt is strong with this one. Time to get in the bunker and avoid society.
Plus OP lives in FL, the music is appropriate. The music is very appropriate. |

Nascar needs fans. The ones that used to watch no longer show up. Have you seen how many team jackets are sold in the hood?

White people buy hip hop and rap music too op.
No I do not listen to any of that ... music |
|
I have wasted a lot of time in my life: not least of which has been literally observing paint dry.
At the very least, I can say I never wasted time watching NASCAR. |

You might have hit on something. Maybe someone could start a channel broadcasting classic NASCAR races?

Professional sports= anti Christian propaganda to distract Americans from the truth of the Gospel.
Are you really shocked that they’d be playing filth music? |
|
I know plenty of white people that grew up in podunk places that enjoyed a little ghetto music.

Wait, why are the playing music at the event? Or is this bumper music on TV?

I'd wager it has a lot to do with the popularity of hip-hop in the 20-34 demographic.

Ever been at the gas station filling up and heard the tooth rattling bass of thug rap coming from a Tahoe with blacked out windows, then a bunch of trailer park ass white 20 something's pile out? That's why.
That's also why I quit watching/supporting NASCAR 5 years ago. |

What is the phrase for white trash people that want to be black? Almost every one I knew that went by that phrase growing up was a NASCAR fan. There were only 2 black families in my hometown of 13k and we still had those white people. I always told them shut the rap shit off we are in a pickup and your dad is a farmer.

Cause Brian France is a idiot, and has to screw up every aspect of the business his dad and grand dad worked hard to build.

When I went to gonne smith'n skool, a lot of my younger classmates listened to that sh*t they call "rap" and mistake for music. Every generation has its music.

Drivers pick their own songs for their intro OP. Since that is what you were referring to.

was a fan of nascar for over 40 years and I am only 46.
the year they told the fans the confederate flag was a no no I told them to F O has nothing to do with the flag, has everything to do with this political correct bull shit look where nascar is today, guess I am not alone in my feelings yes I said my feelz. that is one "sport" that is dead and does not know it. at least danica was easy on the eyes. dont even have that going for them. |

View Quote My family actually once owned some farmland occupied by Talledega Superspeedway and the Airport, I haven’t been since Earnhardt died. It wasn’t the same too many Jeff Gordon’s and Busches, not enough Waltrip, Baker and Allison |

Quoted: literally anyone who wants to make money in an industry that relies on the general public to consume their product, especially in the broad category of entertainment that sports fall under. View Quote You're never going to have your product appeal to everyone, and blasting rap music is one of those things that's divisive for an audience and is going to turn some of your prospective customers off/ away |

Nascar is trying to attract a new demographic.
They actively chased away their old demographic, so there is no one to watch. |

NASCAR need to attract new fans to replace the old ones. Pandering to old people by playing music that hasn't been culturally relevant in over 20 years is not a good business move. |
