Your Current Opinion on Rap Today?

[GodofDisaster]

I've never liked rap in the first place, I could never understand what was so entertaining about some guy singing to the same beat over and over again, whilst talking about drugs, abusing women and violence.

Music is like candy, you have to throw out all of the wrappers.

Again, an original, highly thought out and witty comment. Seriously man, try again, this time say something that requires you to think, rather than just spouting crap that you once heard one dude say, it got a laugh, so that makes it funny for all eternity.

complete and utter shit.its just about guns whores drugs and whores on drugs getting shot with guns

I've never liked rap in the first place, I could never understand what was so entertaining about some guy singing to the same beat over and over again, whilst talking about drugs, abusing women and violence.

I'm going to deal with both comments together, being as they're essentially the same misguided view of rap. Not all rap is misogynistic, aggressive and promotional of drug use. In fact, very, very little is in that particular area of rap (which I'm not saying doesn't exist, just that it's the shit side of rap). As for subject matter, I've got

Spoiler: The adrenaline from being in the front row of a gig

Spoiler: The importance of family

Spoiler: The rise to fame of a skater

Spoiler: Hell, we've even got some tracks that deliberately go against that stereotype

and those are just the first few that leap to mind (it's 11pm, if you really need more stuff I'll show more tomorrow).

Oddly enough, you posted the only rap group I actually like (hill top hoods). I just posted my comment because it was short and sweet. (sort of like the candy.)
