Why does most of Nsider hate rap?

[Gwen Khan]

Rap takes no talent. Just write a poem and add a beat.

it's barely even a poem, some of it is just random words stuck together

There, now add swearing and a beat and it's rap.

Rap is boring, it repeats two or more lines, and it irritates me.

sort of like a chorus in most rock/pop songs

or even a guitar riff in most rock songs

oh boo hoo not repetition ;-;

It's not like writing a rock song takes much more talent.

[Lotos]

I dislike how people obnoxiously blast it on their car stereos or iPods.  As long as I don't have to hear it, I don't give a intercourse  really.

You could say the same thing for county music, because 95% of it is sad/love poems over a guitar/violin/drum/fiddle combo.

Any and all music takes talent. I could do about 500 songs from any genre, and they wouldn't be good, because I can't sing.

You're a moron.
I could take those same two lines and make, oh I dunno, a rock song too.
Add in some words about breaking up/losing a friend/high school, and there's an alt rock song.
Add in some words about drug usage/hell/satan, and there's some heavy metal.
Add in something about a farm/best friend dying/falling in love, and then put it over an acoustic guitar - woah, country music!

[Jono2]

yes, but nobody in their right mind likes country music.

[JMV]

there's no christian rap,

I hope you can break the news to Lyrycsyt

and everything I hear is about sex, drugs and money.  so why would I have any inscentive whatsoever to look into the genre any more? 

i once watched the news and all i saw were muslims who were terrorists, why would i have any incentive whatsoever to find ones who aren't?

I don't like spoken word, so why would I like rap?  it's the same thing with music. :|

i dont like spoken word, so why would i like rock? it's the same thing with varying pitch :|

yes, but nobody in their right mind likes country music.

Write a poem, read it to a beat.  I promise that the result won't be a rap song. You're an idiot if you believe otherwise.

Say, boy, where ya comin' from?
Where'd ya get that point of view?
When I was younger
I knew a Motherintercourse er like you,
and she said,
'You don't need my love,
You wanna sati-satisfaction,' Bitch
You don't need my love,
You've got to find yourself another
Another piece, another piece
Of the action

OMG OMG OMG HE SAID A SWEAR, THAT'S SOMETHING EXCLUSIVE TO RAP. OMG OMG HE REPEATED HIMSELF LIKE 30 TIMES

That must really suck
I really dont like music in the first place :P

[Jono2]

i don't know what I was thinking when I said there's no christian rap, because I knew there was. o_O

you don't have to have any inscentive to find any non-muslim terrorists, but at the same time, you don't have to treat any muslims you see as terrorists.  I don't go out looking for rap, but when it's playing, I won't shut an ear to it just because it is rap.

johnny cash is the only country music that I can stand to hear.  everything else is poop.


I don't care if others listen to rap.  I just don't like the genre.  I prefer something with more music behind it, i guess.

You're all retarded if you generalize about rap.

Not all rap is about gangz, drugz, seckz and moneyz. Today, most of it is, but it began as something else. It began as something anyone could have fun with - whether you're dancing, rhyming, or making beats. 25 years ago, most rap didn't have immoral lyrics. It was all fun, usually meaningless, but not in a bad way.

Lyrics really give rap a bad reputation. A lot of rap haters like rock or metal or somethin' like that. My favorite band is Guns N' Roses. Listne to Appetite For Destruction - it's just as dirty (or even dirtier) than the typical gangsta bling-bling rap album is today.

Rap CAN be artistic and also can not, like all music. I really hate what rap has become. Poetry is an art, and there's alsoa bit of art into making a good beat.

Y'know what's funny? People who bash rap, yet listen to Linkin Park, MCR, AFI, and the like.

I just haven't found any rap that I really like, and I have no reason to go looking for it, because I love my electro pop as it is.

it's not that I hate the genre, it's that I have no reason to like it.

I posted some lyrics from "You're Crazy" earlier in the thread using that exact example.  8)
