OK, Ive read a lot of your posts and have come to the fact aht a lot of them are ignorant. I used to listen to rap so i can have a say on whether it sucks or not. The reason i stopped listening to rap is becuas eI got bored and it all started to sound the same. I switched over to metal, and I love it, becuase metal has about 30 different sub-genres liek nu-metal, classic metal, death metal, black metal, etc. Rap there is only 1 genre which is rap. Just some guys saying "poetic crap" yes i do respect some liek 2 pac and that actually rap about something. And also people say its hard to make the rythm and the lyrics. I have a program on my computer where i made a rap rythm in 2 minuits and it sounds great. And the way rap is made the lyrics are easy becuase there is to chorus and no guitar solo so really there is no talent in rap at all. Sorry guys.
Stupid rap kid-Dude I love rap
Metalhead- *puts Metal earphones on his ears*
Stupid rap kid- HOLY SHIT MAN I LOVE METAL, FUCK RAP!

A modern style of music characterized by fast rhythmic rhyming backed by a drum beat. Lyrics are often explicit. Choruses are often slower than verses. Some popular rappers are Eminem, Lil Wane, Jay-z and Snoop Dog. Rap music is often pointless and a waste of time. You can barely understand the lyrics and every song sounds the same. Rap has no depth to it it's just some guy talking fast with a beat. Rockis real music not rap. Rap is crap music. Long live ROCK!!!!!

Many people think that its all about drugs, money, violence, and sex. But its really not, most mainstream rap is about these, but thats not the good rap. And besides, don't have they most of that in every genre of music. Blues has many references to drugs. Metal has violence in it ( Raining Blood ). Elvis sung about women so once you think abotu it its like every other genre of music. The underground rap is usually better then mainstream. Tupac is considered the best rapper ever. Rap stands for Rythem and Poetry. Many people consider snap music like D4L and Dem Franchize Boyz or Soulja Boy to be rap but its not real rap, just a spinoff of crunk.
Idiot - Rap sucks, Its all about sex, violence, and drugs.
Me - Isn't rock too?
Idiot - Uhm....

Formerly glorious form of music. It's Golden Era has long passed (mid 80's - mid 90's). Pretty much 90% of it today is horrible and is unbearable to listen, except for some.
Typical white man's stereotype of rap music that is it by an ignorant black person who talks about dealing drugs and killing people. This is because most white people don't know the struggle that these rappers have gone through. They hypocritically judge ALL rap music as being obsolete. Is this not the same as racism?
Some people just don't have trained ears. They can't understand deep lyrics, so they just listen to their "I Can't Drive 55" or "This love has taken its toll on me" and praise it, then wonder later on how come the song gets old a month later. Its because of the bland, simple lyrics. There is no reading in between the lines in most other forms of music.
Rappers turned sellouts/R&B singers or R&B singers turned rappers have ruined rap. Party music is garbage. 50 Cent, Chingy, Nelly, Lil' Jon, Ciara, Ying Yang Twins, GARBAGE. Most radio stations play garbage. It's understandable how you misunderstand rap.

one of the four elements of hip hop: rapping, breaking, graff writing, and DJing.
I was about to waste a whole lot of breath on explaining the tradition of rapping to ignorant people, as I am often tempted to do, but then I read some of these other comments/definitions and reminded myself that i was dealing with close-minded inbred hillbillys

The act of speaking in rhyme. Not to be confused with rap, which is music. Rapness is just a manner of speech. Beats, skills, natural talent, or even basic linguistic intelligence aren't necessary.
Ayo Jo! Woah! What it be like? Please don't mind my chapped lips.
Gimme yo math baby. Don't you love my rapness?

It is one of the most distorted music genres in the world of music. Most people on here say "I think its bad cuz its bad plus its bad cuz its bad." mainly because they listen to the douchebag posers that are played on the radio and get payed 120398123098 dollars for making a shitty song. In reality, most rap is shit because of posers, but, the old rap is good. 2pac is a good example of an actually good rapper. He is good because he actually knows how to conjugate. His songs have actual meaning. One of his songs is about how he is seeing many american soldiers die in a pointless war. Anyways, most rap is good but you cannot generalize it. I'd say 85% is shit posers or just terrible rappers and the rest is good rap. I like rock and rap though so don't think I'm one of those retards who feeds the fire.
