theres always been the classic rock like queen,lynyrd skynyrd,pinkfloyd,led zepplin,ect.


over the last decade rap has taken over society,and its all the same generic crap.what do think,i like some other opinions so get back to me:D

[Jack]

I am in total agreement, nejih94. It also seems as though a lot of rappers resort to stealing the songs of other, true artists and completely ruining them. That's another thing, I can't stand it when a rapper tries to act all high, mighty and prideful when referring to each other as artists and musicians:

1) They aren't singing, they are speaking rhymes with a normal voice.
2) Behold, what most rap consists of: hoes, bitches, Cadillacs, homies, dogs, gangsters, law breaking, sex, money, booty smacking, need I go on? It's mindless. I'm not racist but I am genre-ist and I'm damn proud of it. Rap is NOT music as far as I am concerned.

The music industry is filled with sell-outs and it's no longer about the music for most, in my opinion, just about how many albums sell. It's a bunch of blind people perverting the idea of good music and everyone else is buying into it because it's a fad amongst today's youth. It seems as though children are having more of an influence over their parents then reversed.

Most of what I have just stated is also true for Hip Hop. God, I just can't stand how bad America's taste in music is, I honestly just get so riled up sometimes. It's ridiculous. I love music with a passion and when somebody claiming creativity and genius, but in reality containing no real talent, is showered with praise, favor and awards, I just begin to loathe society even more than I already do.

Just my two cents.

GO COUNTRY!!!!!!

I would have to agree with Jack. Music has fallen upon the ears of the tone def and twisted into something that can't be compared to something like Beathoven or a good piece of Motzart.

When I hear people claiming that some rapper is a musical genius I have to step in and even though risk getting the crap kicked out of me, state my opinion on how they aren't, who is, and how the person who is is far better and the person they are calling a genius.

All you need for a hit rap song is six things mentioned: Sex, Drugs, money, running from cops, Hoes, and rims. There i could probably come up with a hit rap song off the top of my head.

If you want a good rapper, MC Chris is one name that stands out. He's a man who can make an entire rap about Star Wars. How many people can really do that. Other then him I really only like one other rap group which is People Under the Stairs. If you want good rap you should check out MC Chris and People Under the Stairs and forget all the others cause they don't compare to any musician ever, even the most horrible guitar student ever.

Actually, I only have high standards when it comes to music and gaming. Anywhere else other then music and gaming my standards are very very low. :P

And there have been plenty of successful rap songs without mentioning guns or gangs. Well gangs at least.

im more of a Classic rock, rock, hard rock, Jrock

i think the reason rap is so popular is that it touches on many Taboo subjects
like sex and drugs although im not a big fan of it at all.
