| I hate rap/hip-hop CRAP!
i had a conversation with this white wannabe black guy who listens to rap and all that crap(hey that rhymes! now i too can become a rapper.). it's so frustrating talking to someone like that because they honestly think that it's good music and it takes a lot of soul and passion to write a song about pimps and hoes! come on!
i was in germany for a while and the germans really don't have any good bands going. and they all love their techo music?!
but i rate bad music in this order:
1. rap/hip-hop(and rock with rapping in it)
2. techno/dance/electronica(and all possible branches of that)
3. pop
4. southern/country rock
5. punk rock(especially new age punk rock and those teen bands)
6. bands who sing songs with meaningless or stupid lyrics which ties in with the above(but also those "oooh baby, i love you" songs)
7. opera(but that really does take passion and soul to make and i respect them for that)

| i'm happy that there are people out there who can agree with me and think the same stuff when they hear this crap. supposedly there is "good" underground hip-hop, but i doubt it all.

| | There are some hip hop artists that really do put their heart and soul into their music. Guys like Sage Francis, Atmosphere, POS, Murs and Slug. They're all on the rhyme sayers label, and they do talk about women, but not in the bitches and hoes kinda way. |

| | Yeah, I'll admit that as an "art" form or just a stylistic choice, rap has its place. Sometimes, it even results in something worth listening to. Like Michael Franti/Spearhead, MC 900 Ft Jesus, or Erik B & Rakim. When you go back and appreciate rap in its original form (Jamaican "toasting"), it seems like reggae could never have evolved without it. An entire subgenre of reggae (dancehall) was born the minute the DJ picked up and shouted into the mic while the record was still playing. But yet. Isn't the whole "G thang" played out? Did rap box itself into too tight a corner by starting out with such a stupidly simple formula? And when was the last time rap ever did something good for the community? Today, rap (like rock) is dead but just won't go away. Like modern "country music" rap has degenerated into a hedonistic parody of itself. "Lifestyle" music that provides a soundtrack for self-absorption and self-worship. Or even self-destruction. You can do better people!

Is rap considered music?. Only the noise that doesn't sound like taking is the music. Seriously, there are some cool funky grooves / loops etc.
