can someone explain the appeal of rap? all i hear is bothersome noise. it's shit. it's simplistic, it's boring, it does nothing. it's not good music. black voices are not pleasant to listen to.
it's also the most popular music right now, especially among whites, which is astonishing to me. every time i see some ghetto loser blasting this crap, i want to end myself. what the fuck is going on? there's a world of good music out there and it seems like everyone listens to this trash.
i mean look at this individual. look at him. it's obvious he's contributed precisely zero art to the history of humanity, and yet he's probably incredibly rich. he's a dumb as a fucking brick and has legions of fans. he's a vulgar, crass fuck, and i know if you polled Americans more of them would be able to identify this guy than could identify, say, Dvorak, or John Cage.
Sum gotdamn rap…

Young boys probably get into rap because their fathers aren't totally absent but don't want to or can't afford spending a lot of time with them. The music at least has ideas that are masculine in a ghetto ape nigger sort of way.

I was there for the social commentary and beats in my 20's. I hadn't found my people yet, they weren't it but I was looking.

>ideas that are masculine
The cars mostly, old Detroit stuff I couldn't afford but looked nice. Also the women were expected to stand by their men or get kicked to the curb (this while feminism was really ramping up and annoying me in society at large).

just a drum beat with minimal music can sound cool to the ears, and rhymes also sound cool, that's why they did it in poetry in ye olde times. the underlying problem is that 99% of rap music is niggers and wiggers with 0 talent making the shittiest rhymes possible about nefarious nigger activities like murder, doing dope, stealing, reproducing and assorted niggery with the gayest beats possible and autotune. so not a problem with the medium itself, just its purveyors.

Gay. You are everything wrong with modern culture. "social commentary" kek

Even though I'm a fellow Dvorak enjoyer who can also appreciate some of Cage's work, it's not like the Slavonic Dances would lend themselves to getting all krunk in the club or whatever niggers call acting like niggers these days.

Fertile medium for gangsta rap music as lifestyle bullshit. Maybe also a lack of a coherent culture in general and the USA can be exceptional in that regard.
Im assuming op is talking about modern rap which is nothing but commercialized bullcrap and pretense without any meaning and no real musical value either.

Old school rap was about delivering a message from the street and confronting the mainstream values and perceptions.
It changed significantly over the years and became a hollow shell of its former self.
In a way the oldschool rappers did what we do, but instead of posting on imageboards they made tapes with background music and put it in a form of insulting poetry to reach out.
Most of them were from the street doing things on their own and talking about what life was like for them, that is until the music producers sucked them up and conformed them to suit the mainstream pretend and sell out culture.

Niggers have a lower IQ. The rest is not as relevant as you think it is. They'd not be so rebellious if they were aware enough to realize they are fighting a battle they cannot win. 
>>329325
<watch as a pretend to be smaht via quick rhymes so as to try to trick whitey into thinking it's my socioeconomic problemz and not my rebellious literal bastard nature that gets me into criminal activities 
The 'street', riiiiiight. You mean low-IQ rebels of the niggerlicious variety. They say 'fuck white people rules, I don't have to obey these rules because y-people made them!' then turn around and say didndonothin' despite being /r/totally christian. If you're stupid you lack self awareness and complexitity in general so of course their music is stupid. It's a far cry from what classical is like and due to nigrification jazz and then rock took over before rap even came about after further degeneration of our minds and culture. 

Even a parrot will bob it's head if you beat box. It's subhuman. A monkey cannot like Classical but it will like rap as it's less mentally demanding to experience. It's less mathematically intense.

When in Rome you do as Rome does, not act like a bastard/heathen and then die while pretending you did nothing wrong. Jesus is a great example of doing shit wrong when Rome was around.

Fucking nigger shit. Some momma I'm comin' home bullshit and due to the empathy that comes with being too intelligent everyone falls for it every single time even though it's niggershit. 

I find it funny that in Chrono Trigger, Classical tier orchestratial sound track that it does have, that they made that first robot you see a rapper and that it's rap harms you in battle. It was a clever joke.

I think it was ok in late 80's before they went full gangsta. I liked Snap (the power), McHammer (u can't touch this), Vanilla Ice (ice ice baby), and a few others. But it's been a long time since I cared about music.

It's only appeal is batshit ICP and nothing else but batshit stuff. Due to nigger culture it's still gay though. I'd say early Eminem could be batshit and intresting for that reason but it reeks of niggering. There are no good rap stars due to  nigger culture. If they could refrain from name dropping then it'd be potentially okay. It's supposed to be about the music not the musician but rap stars make it about themselves and that's why it's bad.

The appeal of Rap as in (t)Rap is the same as the appeal of boopy Banda, "Metal" bands that all should like 3Doors Down, basically any Country since Garth Brooks, and anything you hear at a candy rave: the mental subjugation of Western youth by way of commodified, over produced ,degredation- and degeneration-pimping, soulless tripe.

The appeal of Rap as in Hip Hop was is an appreciation of the spoken word in a deep tempo, along a theme, using creative wordplay, width and usage of vocabulary, endurance, and command of the audience (as it was originally a gimmick popular with venues' Masters of Ceremony for a playover between actual bands). 

I can't find it, but Snoop Dogg of all people was on a podcast a few years ago saying he hated modern (t)Rap, and that literally every MC sounded the same, had ZERO diction, and they were all "a bunch of fuckin' kids: 'Little This,' 'Baby That,' be a fucking MAN." So you are absolutely not alone, OP. the genre is thoroughly raped and there's really only the occasional backpacker holding to the spirit of the art.

Ironically, the lyrics of death grips are actually the best part of that music and pretty obviously high effort even if the meaning generally just boils down to nihilism about fucking women and doing drugs. If every rapper put that much effort into their lines I don't think as many people would have problems with their music.

It also brings up murdering people as a trick's head in a bucket or a tricks body in a  bag being burned means getting rid of a "John's"  (the cop term version  of the same thing) body, the guy that solicits a hooker. They call them tricks. Not bothering to translate the rest of that filth. 50 cents rapped about beating a trick first of which allows me to even know this as they made a movie I once saw about him showing why they are the way they are. It's a euphemism, trick, as well as the other ebonics shit are euphenistic, or worse, it's basically speaking in code to negate legal issues, of which the 50 cents movie made that point that they can't say beat that bitch on the radio and so it became 'whoop dat trick' rather than 'beat that bitch'.  

It's barbarism and if they spoke plainly I think more people would have a problem with it.
Maybe if you listened to anything else other than classical music and video game OSTs like the autist you are, you'd learn to appreciate other genres

It's a genre that focuses on rhythmic wordplay. Not everyone's cup of tea, of course.

That said, music in general is overrun with low-standard normalfag shit, and rap is no exception. It's not always easy to find the good stuff amid all the junk. You have to know where to look.

Here's some stuff I like.
