M.P.A.C. music represents change. It symbolizes a transition in history from conventional conservative methods of expression to more powerful identity-forming methods of self-awareness. Music has the ability to build or destroy the minds, morals, and ethical values of its listeners. Today's youth, as others of the past, are greatly drawn toward this form of expression. Although, it often guides listeners to positive, its reputation in mainstream society is one of filth, demoralization, and violence.
