Rap Music Used as Torture
As reported in Digital Spy, rap music was used as one of the many forms of torture at a secret prison near Kabul, Afghanistan. Human rights group Human Rights Watch claims that detainees were kept in dark cells and subjected to loud music. Terrorist suspects interviewed by the group say heavy metal and hip hop were used to shake them.
"There was loud music, [Eminem's] "Slim Shady" and Dr. Dre for 20 days," said Benyam Mohammad, an Ethiopian. Then "they changed the sounds to horrible ghost laughter and Halloween sounds. ... The CIA worked on people, including me, day and night.... Plenty lost their minds. I could hear people knocking their heads against the walls and the doors, screaming their heads off."
Eminem and Dr. Dre for 20 days straight...that's harsh. I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy. I wouldn't even listen to Coldplay for 20 days straight. If I were to torture someone (not that I will), I would most likely choose the theme song to Barney (yeah, the purple dinofag), theme song to Spongebob Squarepants and any Celine Dion song. Oh, and the James Bond theme song Sheryl Crow sang. That was painful in 5.1 Dolby Digital.
