Two things to be careful of here, first is a presumption of judgement, and yes I know that's a bit "dumb sounding" when the evidence looks so "obvious" and I'm not saying it's not, but since the wheels of justice actually seem to be turning here (hey! who knew they could do that!) I'm going to let that happen and not extrapolate or presume until there's actually reason to be cynical about the results.
And second is the feeling like we're seeing the "tip of the iceberg" here and yep there's lots of dots one could connect, and the entire industry does have a stink of skeeviness about it once you, like, actually listen to the lyrics with new ears or start thinking "hey they've been telling us who they are all along" or reading newly realized interpretations into their sly allusions but, please please, remember remember how so so easy it is to get carried away with those kind of extrapolations. Beware thin ice.
And yes these rappists aren't in the scheme of things, "very important people"; remember they too are pawns in the game, there's no end to that, and it's a very tried and true move to give the vulgarité their heroes to slaughter, their idols to destroy, and, most powerfully, their canvases to paint reflective hypocrisies upon. Spellcraft.
There are reasons this story has been allowed to break. There are reasons people are being fed to the public outrage machine. Please, keep asking yourself -- why? Cui bono? Nothing happens in a vacuum.
