Oracle of DelphiNate Dogg & Eminem encouraging date rape?

Eminem's album 'The Curtain Call' (2005)
Just another indication of the artistic wasteland that is commercial hiphop, I give you Eminem's current single 'Shake That' off his 2005 album Curtain Call - The Hits . An apparent endorsement of date-rape, the video that accompanies the song sees Nate Dogg and Eminem, in animated form, spike the drink of a bikini clad girl. Passed out, they then carry her out to the 'Hummer' at which point the video implies that she's given a good rogering
(the viewer sees her face squished up against the car window). Although not as explicit the song's lyrics in verse four also suggest the possibility of sexual assault:
I'm a menace, a dentist, an oral hygentist
Open your mouth for about four or five minutes
Take a little bit of this flouride rinise
Swish but don't spit it, swallow and I'll finish
Yeah me and Nate d-o double g
Looking for a couple bitches with some double d's
Pop a little champagne and a couple E's
Slip it in her bubbuly, we finna finna have a party
It astounds me that there's no criticism of this kind of morally repugnant sentiment. No wonder incidents like the one involving the Canterbury Bulldogs at Coffs Harbour happen when tracks like this glamorise such behaviour.
