The only problem with that AS, is they could say the same about you, and it would be just as true.

I'm not saying that they are right, but their opinion is just as valid as yours is.

I for one support any effort to rid the world of rap and hip-hop because everything I've heard is unlistenable crap.

how can they say i'm an ignorant jackass for liking rap music? how can one be a jackass for liking something... jackassery comes out of a negative (ie- hating something)

and before you say "i like to kill jews" is jackassery but "i hate to kill jews" isn't... keep in mind that music is morally neutral. it's just art/culture

Possibly because, in my rather extensive experience, those who enjoy hip-hop and rap tend to be the most stupid.

(speaking purely from my experience in the Navy)

In my even more extensive experience, I found that everyone likes hip-hop and rap. Only homosexuals seem to be anti-rap, due to the anti-homosexual stance taken by the majority of the artists in the genre.

In the Navy? Doesn't like hip-hop? You be the judge...

So every single straight person likes rap and hip-hop? I don't like rap because it doesn't sound good. The anti-gay stance is a part of it, but it is moreso because rap sounds like crap.

Alright, how'd this: The absolute dumbest portion of the navy, who are undesignated Deck seamen because they scored so low on their ASVB they can't even be cooks, watches ****ing BET 24 in berthing, and enjoy breaking out into sponatneous rap during the rare (inport) instances the tv isn't turned to that channel.

All rap is is the same damn beat over and over again. You know why Outcast's "Shake it" was so popular? Because it was the only damn original hip-hop in years

That said, I also dislike Pop music, and quite a bit of country.

Rock and Roll, baby.

A lot of them here, too, and they like hip-hop. But if I ever hear anyone complain about it it's usually a white conservative. Although you'll get some from any group complaining about it.

And I never said I didn't like some of it, but that most of it is stale.
I also am tired of it's pervasiveness in main stream (usually the worst of the genre), and the general image that's portrayed with it (generic thug).

In all seriousness, I agree with you that most rap is stale. That's true of all musical genres, though, as I said earlier. At its best, hip-hop is the most dynamic and exciting musical form out there right now. And its best has been getting better in recent years; a lot of young producers are coming up and making some great stuff.

Hip-hop
