People simply are stating what they consider to be music , people could care less about the definition of music and simply can respect rap as music or choose to disown it. PEOPLE CAN HAVE DIFFERENT OPINIONS AND FEELINGS!!!! No one has tried to change anyones mind here or force there views on another.....;)
But you can't say it isn't music, because it is. Music has a freaking definition, it's not really a matter of opinion. It's like saying Kool-Aid isn't a liquid because you hate it.
To alot of you it may be music and if you pull out a dictionary you may tell me it is music and I would agree with you that according to a book worm and an educated or knowledgefull person that it may be music.
So you're telling me that you want to be ignorant and not a "educated person" and say it isn't music because you don't like it.
That's being closed minded right there honey.
When is an opinion baised on strong feelings ignorant . One may say that it is perrfectally naturall. People often exzarate things when they feel strongly about them wouldnt you say so. It is socially correct to exzarate when you feel strongly about something . That is all that I have done here. I never disputted what music is or what the definiton is rather . But I simply stated that I dont consdier rap music. Some poeple may feel strongly enough about disowning or disliking rap as me to say the same thing. There is nothing closed minded about it and I think even using the word close minded makes the person more closed minded than the person they are saying it to. I may be a little quilty there though.
As a matter of fact some people did feel strongly enough about disliking rap as I did to disown it as I did and to say it wasnt music due to there strong feelings and exzarations.
Its called an exzaration due to strong feelings. It socially happens all the time. Im just not the sort of person to un-creatively and boringly look at the definitions on webster and to give a boring dull narrow view of what most people consider music. So if you want to have an intelligent conversation with me you'll have to put more effort into it.
I already stated how strongly i feel about disowning rap and my feelings would be obvious to a chimp. So maybe you can realize that I exzarated due to strong feelings of not liking rap and you could question why I dont like it instead of boringly and dully looking at an web sites definition....
I understand that you have your strong negative feelings about rap music. Humans exaggerate all the time, feelings can be overwhelming and we say things like, "I hate rap, so it isn't music." I might've said that too to myself when watching a 50 Cent video, but it's not like I meant it. It was said out of anger, out of passionate feelings which led me to exaggerate. But, I know it's not fact.
You tried to start a debate over your feelings about something, without backing it up with facts. We're going to go in circles because of it. People will say if you think Rap isn't music, let's look up the definition of music, (I for one looked in my own encyclopedia of which isn't on the internet). We found that yes, Rap is music. It's the damn truth, and we all understand your feelings about, and most of us feel the same or similarly to you.
But don't try to say that inFACT rap isn't music, because it does make you look ignorant whether you want it to or not. I honestly do understand where you're coming from, though. What was your purpose in starting this thread, to discuss it like a debate or just to say your opinion of rap?
