>>329287 (OP)
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.
