A genre of "music" *coughs* Very involved in the hispanic and black community. Mostly spoken word to a heavy beat, with a lot of mostly naked women and flashy cars.

a very complicated and talent required form of music. people who judge it by saying its "crap" or "nonsense" are just ignorant, close-minded, uneducated, stupid, and have probably listened to 30 seconds of some 50 cent song and judged tha whole industry by some mtv clip. 50 cent is a commercial rapper wit no real talent for tha rapping industry. listen to some underground rappers, thats where tha real talents lie, listen to a variety of 2pac, lil wayne, TI, eminem, nas, fabulous, etc. to say that that isnt talent is just being stupid and tryin to sound cool. to be able to "spit" (rap, rhyme) to a beat and have the rythm required for tha song is not somethin everyone can do. to have flow and lyrics is a talent. ive listened to varietys of every kinda music there are, oldies, hip hop, r&b, rock, country, punk...so i can fairly judge with an opinion im entitled to. people who jugde rap on some ignorant s*** are pathetic. country is tha WORST excuse fo music ive ever heard in my life...ive heard countless songs and it consists of whining. not talent from what i can gather. its a sad excuse for being called music. a rap song can make you think, cry, it can tell a story in a way that no one else could paint it like that. TI and eminem are tha two best artists at painting a picture in a song. any one could write a whiny country song if they wanted...its too easy.
"hey you heard that new rap song, boi that shit is hype! TI got mad flow!"

"music" that promotes ghetto hoodrat behavior and gives a bad stereotype toward our race.

should really be spelled "raap" music sense "retarded assholes attempting music" makes a lot more sense.
rap is the most disgraceful and disappointing excuse for "music" ever. if the only thing you do is talk into a microphone about how miserable ur ghetto life is with a dumb beat in the background, then anyone can get money.

the worst excuse for "music" ever made. and im not just some poser who hates rap because lots of other people do. i mean, i used to listen to rap. then, i realized how stupid and shitty it is. and i dont stereotype it either. not all rap is about drugs, violence, sex, etc. some of it is, but not all of it. and im no racist either; i hate eminem, and i like black rockers like jimi hendrix
and all of u retards who say that we rockers stereotype rap should shut the fuck up. even if some people do, u people who like rap stereotype rock too.first of all:
rock takes ass loads of talent, i mean, have u tried playings some metallica? didnt think so.
second of all:
rockers dont just hit the guitars, and scream and bang the drums, ur thinking of black metal,(which still takes talent) an extremely tiny fraction of rock
third of all:
almost all rock isn't about drugs, sex, violence, rape, gore, blood,sexuality, satan, death, disease, etc. thats death metal(which is almost impossible to play) and black metal(both r still pritty good, in my opinion)
to make my point clear, rap is garabage and rock kicks ass
black dude: quit stereotyping rap!!
me: im not, u fuck bag!
Black dude: if ur not stereotyping rap, then rock isnt constant screaming and banging of instruments
me:im not, and ur a hypocrate, cuz ur stereotyping rock right now. not all rock screams and bangs, and the stuff that does takes talent, so shut the fuck up, bitch!!!

rap LICKS balls

A form of music which involves talking over a "ringtone" and requires a great talented musician to sing in it for it to sell eg/ Phil Collins, Elton John, The Doors etc. These musicians write and sing the basis of many famous rap songs and are often "ignored" because they think that the rapper did all the important stuff when all they did was "talk".

Rappers often rip off melodies from classic songs and claim it for their own. Eg/ Spandeau Ballet's "True", Martika's "toy soldier", etc. The main reason why they cant make up their own tunes is that they are talent less and they know that their work is shit so instead they used other people's work to make more money.

Many people claim that rap has “unique” beats and rhythms and requires talent to make these beats. For Goodness sake its just a drum machine doing some bass and snare loops. What’s so amazing about that? You want real beats, listen to those amazing drummers that could play on odd time signatures and makes the song better than it was.

Also, Many fans of rap thinks would try to defend their "music" by telling us to listen to old rappers like 2pac because he writes songs about important stuff, but doesn’t everyone do that? It’s nothing special. Many different artists from different genre of music also writes about important stuff except that they use INSTRUMENTS and they make their own amazing MELODIES and LYRICS. (that’s right people, there’s lyrics in other types of music as well. Much more clever and original than 2pac’s or other rappers for that matter. Remember that great lyrics (or even poems) don’t have to rhyme.) When 2pac writes about the problems of the world, Every one is like “Wow, he’s musically talented” but when really talented great black musicians like Stevie Wonder and Bob Marley writes about the problems of the world, no-one gives a damn.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a racist. I admire Black people. They have so much potential to do anything in this world, even being musicians . But I dislike how RAP music is destroying their image in this modern society. I don’t watch music shows anymore because of the filthy clips that these rappers produce. Rap and Rappers are a disgrace.
hey john, turn on the sample from that keyboard and lets rap!
