Rap artists would be in serious trouble if that was the case so definitely not. Unfortunately there’s no black & white when it comes to YT guidelines either. One person can say one curse in one song & be demonetized and another song full of cursing can go completely unnoticed

I don’t think it’s unfair to say that rap as a genre has more explicit language that other genres. When you submit a song to distrokid and pick rap as the genre it automatically ticks the explicit box. Not saying it’s guaranteed but explicit language is definitely more prevalent.

When Rock music was popular there were dozens of mainstream bands who swore every other word but it was somehow different. There are artists in every genre including rap who swear and others who don’t, I think it’s unfair to put any genre in a box regardless of ratio
