Pusha T has rapped alnost exclusively about selling cocaine for like 30 years at this point. Let's not act like drug use/dealing isn't a major theme in a lot of hiphop.

I think the idea here is not to say that hiphop/rap does not talk about or even glorify drug use/violence/misoginy, but rather that most popular music styles do, in this specific case classic country.
