Rap Music is just a person talking into a microphone REALLY fast and failing.
I like Metal and pretty much ALL Sub Genre's
You like Metal, and you of all people should know about generalizations made about your favorite genre. I'd trust if you'd treat one of my favorite genres with the same respect as I do yours.

yup, i'm with you.. but there's some rap that's not that bad.. but it's definitely not my cup of tea.. i prefer bands like coldplay. don't like coldplay? DEAL WITH IT.
LOLcoldplay.
ITT nobody knows what the **** they're saying; sweeping generalizations
but you're mostly 12 year olds so it's ok. you'll learn maybe.
I'm sick of the majority of newer music, not just rap.
I often listen to country music, it's polar opposite.
Often tells a story more appropriate than that of rap, you can sing to it, and it's sometimes pretty damn epic.
Bad thing at my house is, my mom has a whole disk of her favorite rap music and cranks the volume up almost to it's maximum capacity.
Okay, you know what? I just wanna make something clear, when I say I hate rap, I mean mainstream rap.
However, all of the rap videos you show me, I don't reall like, but that's subjective and it's just because I have a different taste in music.
I don't hate them, I respect them and I can stand them.
But I HATE the mainstream rap, it's full of posers and hipsters, and the lyrics are either not even trying to have any meaning or trying too hard to make people who actually like it say "0 u jus jillos cuz u jos nut smortt es dem".
So, sorry, my fault, I don't hate rap, I hate mainstream rap, sorry.

How do you define "mainstream"? Popular? On the radio?

To be fair, even some mainstream rap is good. Lupe Fiasco, for example, is a pretty great rapper, and he gets a decent amount of radio play. Kanye (although a much better producer than he is a rapper) can actually craft together great rap songs that have substance, like for example,
Although, I agree, most mainstream rap is horrible; but so is most mainstream music in general. There are plenty of rock bands/metal bands/etc that get plenty of radio time (on their respective stations,) that are god-awful. Rap is no different, it just has a greater stereotype that tends to be ****.

Meaning less lyrics, strippers in music videos, 50 swears a minute, having only immature people who are under the age of 18 like them (notice how I said immature, not all of them), and MOSTLY everything that came out after the big 2,000.

Yay for Lupe. :smile.gif:
This isn't really "rap" per se, but it's a decent song on the radio. :smile.gif:
I just like how she says "I wanna jam inside your love". XD

Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm tottaly with you on that one, music industry today is HORRIBLE, however there some gems in the dark that gives you hope in music again.
So yeah, pretty much mainstream EVERYTHING is horrible.
Props for proving me wrong on some though, never knew mainstream rap can actually be like that, actually, same thing goes to all genres, too bad that good mainstream music is so rare, eh?
R.I.P 2Pac, by the way, the only rap music I really enjoyed listening to!
If it means somthing, I'm okay with it. The ''songs'' that are just an excuse to brag/complain about the rappers money/skill in bed/life are pathtic, though.
If people want to get a meaningful message across, i'l listen to it, just as long as it isn't in rap form.
BTW, any rap that says EXPLICIT on it, I can correctly assume I won't enjoy.

It isn't just today, there is terrible music from every decade, we just don't listen to it anymore because we have forgotten it because it was fad music.
Metal is just people screaming into a mic and failing.
I like Alternative Rock
You like Metal, and you of all people should know about generalizations made about your favorite genre. I'd trust if you'd treat one of my favorite genres with the same respect as I do yours.
That's ********, because your signature clearly states that you like Avenged Sevenfold, a band which is just a pop band disguised as "metal".
LOLcoldplay.

There's probably good rap music, but I wouldn't know, I have no abilities in music analysis.
Yup, this settles it. Most rap haters are 8 year olds.
Idiots who don't listen to rap: Lil Wayne is a horrible example HORRIBLE. He sucks. Not all rap is fast.
Not about bitches and hoes, and not fast rapping.
BEFORE all of you assclowns generalize, get your facts straight. Generalizations are the most annoying ****ing thing in the world.
I meant modern rap, sorry for not mentioning that.

Well maybe some people will hate. Haters gonna hate though.
