Rap is good to dance to. I really like Kayne West. He has some good raps.

But overall, I think most people in the world would agree that rock music PWNS all.

Rap sucks! Unless it's with bands like Linkin Park or Rage Against the Machine. People like 50 Cent and Jay-Z and Eminem and all the other

y rappers just don't know what music is

METAL RULES ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, and no one argues that beatnik freeform is music but it was never so popular either. If it had been you can be sure that there would be claims it was. It is as if by saying it's music they somehow become "legitimate". I just don't see the point. Why not accept what it is and rejoice in it? It's not like it is lessened by not being music, only by how it is expressed. Oh, how popular expression lesses it every year.

Rap is just talking speeded up rediculously. The backround "music" is usually computer generated, and has a girl singing speeded up so it sounds alien.

Rap is pathetic.

Yes, yes it is. Every song sounds exactly the same and usually has to do with the same things too. I wish for a rap saying how

ty rappers are like 50 Cent and all his little folk. If rap wasn't made, the music world would still be all.......

METAL!!!!!

I am not against rap, but I am against 50 cent, Eminem Outkast. All those guys are in it for the money. GRRRRR!!! It pisses me off when people do that. How ever, bands such as, The Fugees, RAtM, The Exocutioners. Those bands I like. So I guess rap is a double sided genre like all music, there is good and there is bad. But thats more than my 2 cents.
