Quite the contrary.

It is this generation of teenagers/young adults that have ruined rap. Not the other way around. Because they are supporting today's 'rap artists' who have exploited it. I'm not saying all of today's rap artists are, just many or some.

This is just my opinion though and I respect everyone else's opinions.

I dare anyone to listen to any of Twista's early stuff and tell me that rap has ruined popular culture.

If I could make a difference, I would stop stupid people from existing.

You can insult different genres of music. That doesn't mean that genre of music is bad though. If there playing it on the radio then someone must listen to it and like it. You can't dislike someone because of there taste in music. I had a friend like that. He was an ass.

And yes the world would be alot better without stupid people.

I personally don't mind the other genre's. Country, rock, pop (if its not demeaning and distasteful), oldies, etc..I'm perfectly fine with but the second you turn on Rap music (of current times), it just sickens me. And I know there are people who listen to Rap, etc..and they are the people I dislike. Thats my opinion

Yeah, I dislike rap music, and most of the people I dislike, like rap music. I don't dislike them because of the music, it's how they act. As someone earlier said(sorry can't remeber who) all these 12 year olds talking like there black and about how cool they are because they have a hat that has red, blue, and white on it and they wear it sideways.

Rap is not music.

mu·sic

The art of arranging sounds in time so as to produce a continuous, unified, and evocative composition, as through melody, harmony, rhythm, and timbre.

Rap is noise.

noise

A disturbance, especially a random and persistent disturbance, that obscures or reduces the clarity of a signal.

I used to hate rap too. But sometimes you just have to bob your head to a good beat. I'm a bassist, so naturally I'm drawn into good rythym. Rap has that. It's not random. It's machine-gun precise and can hit you in your chest if it's done right.
