Sit down, shut up and enjoy the music you like rather than complaining about the music you hate.

Nobody forces you to listen to music you don't like, and if you hate it, you shouldn't be listening to it anyway.

Not one of these threads, I prefer Rap, but dont go on saying how I hate Rock. I like some Rock songs, but very few.

those old threads angered me due to them being started by someone saying Of them disliking Rap
I mean, a thread called " Crap and Rap Are Only A Letter Away"
Can you lot blame me ?

Yes, yes we can.

Yeah, you chose to go down to the same level. If people wanna be stupid about music, let them. OMFG HAET RAP MUSAK BCUZ ITS JSUT FAST TLAKING ON A DRUM!!11!1

What's the point of getting involved in it? People are often too stubborn about music. Just get over it.

But Im pretty sure there was a crowd of people saying that they hated rock, so dont single me out........

To be fair, the people who did engage in it a lot are not engaging in it much anymore. I mean, look at this thread. It's what, about 20 posts and no flaming yet? That's better than it used to be.

I used to sort of like rap, but that stopped awhile ago, and now all I listen to is rock because I'm close-minded.

I despise rap and love rock. Rap to me is just unpleasant noise, not music. But that's just me.

some rap is okay, as long as it's not the same slow beat as every other song.

that's why i prefer Eminem & Luda. i need some form of melody or else it all becomes crap for me.

same applies to rock.

i have my select tastes.

You could say exactly the same thing about screaming vocalists in Rock music, that's the point, it's all subjective.

Some people LIKE that part of rap, though not every song is like that.

What one person considers good, another may not, it's as simple as that, you can't brand one type of music as good and one as bad, and you can most definitely not say that rap isn't music.

Funny thing is, I don't even like most rap artists, but for the most part, I respect them for what they do.

Rock by far. I find Rap tedious and annoying. But i do like Rap IN rock music eg: Linkin Park, P.O.D., Papa Roach etc (these are more metal but still part of the rock genre)

One day, rock will only be a sliver, rap will be huge and past it's use by date, and a new type of music SHOULD be coming out from an early 20 years of smalltownism and start spreading - which is when the question will be asked if you prefer that or rap.

I like rap - it's my favourite genre of music - that and hip hop. That doesn't mean I like to listen to lyrics that contain the word bitch and yo gangsta every second line, nor does it mean that I must love all rap music videos with booty shaking girls in bikinis.

I respect the talents rappers have. I respect and really love rap artists such as Outkast, Eminem and Ja Rule. But just because I like a song by a rap artist, doesn't mean I like every song. Like Busta Rhymes - I love the beat of his song 'I know what you want', but I don't know any of his other songs.

Me liking rap doesn't mean I don't appreciate music from other genres - I have favourite music artists from other genres. Rap and hip hop are just the main songs that gets me going, or the songs that I enjoy.

I respect rappers for being able to rap, but that doesn't mean that I like them, because I don't. But like Slade said, I can tolerate rap and rock together.

I know this is going to be a dumbass post but there are rappers who have different advantages and such. Not exactly advantages but..You know..Good side?? Screw it. I'll just post. And remember kids. Cwashy-p00 still wikes wock and wap...

So to get to my post..

Tupac: He raps about anything that gets to his mind. But he mostly raps about what happens and can happen in life. Which makes him my favorite rapper. But he can also rap about revenge. Like in the song "Still Ballin". Listen to the anger in him..But if you listen to the song "Bury Me A G", You'll hear a lot about his, and his friends lives. Hence!! He is not a rapper about bitches wich he can say once in some of his songs. He's still cool...

Nas: Another rapper about life. But he raps about pure life. As in thats almost all he talks about. He can rap about his life, ("Street's Disciple") Someone else's life, ("U.B.R.") And life in general, ("One Mic"). But he can have a little fun in him. Like the song ("The World Is Yours"). But the song "One Love" is about writing to his friends who are currently going threw prison life. This is what seperates him from Jay-Z. You can tell he's religious by one of his album title's. One album title is enough to tell. The album called "God's Son". There's Nas for ya'..

A Tribe Called Quest: They rap about fun. Thats it. They are fun. But they are those type that barely curse. They're kind of kid friendly. But still cool. And they were old school which get's them more points...

Jay-Z: Fun. Thats it. He can make the coolest song's here and there but his fun sucks. He's one of those rappers that if they're not raised in the ghetto they dont have much to rap about so they write the stupidest things...

Stop talking about Tupac in the present tense.

I said stop talking about him in the present tense, as in, say "was" instead of "is", not to stop talking about him. Do you have some problem understanding simple English?

Refer to the music in the present tense and the artist (if deceased) in the past tense.

I think Chingy and Matchbox 20 are pretty much equivalent.

Linkin Park, P.O.D., Papa Roach etc (these are more metal but still part of the rock genre)
What metal, lmao what are you smoking. And you say you know rock, honey those are rock with a bit of rap in them not metal with rap in them. That is not metal that's rock. gosh kids these days can't even pick they're genres right.

The reason for the hate 99% of rap is cause of Walk This Way by Aerosmith. I hate (read smurfing hate) punk rock. So most of the groups before and during the 80's are awesome.

Kid? According to your user stats (profile), your 5 years younger than me. Besides I said more metal. Not definatly metal. Meaning they edge more towards the metal side of rock but not quite hit heavy metal.
