Re: Rap is technically music
Rap music is music. However, It's not in the traditional sense of how we understand music. The vocals are filled with slangs that gangs used since the 70s and a lot of the instrumentations are replaced with "Street Sounds" instead of traditional instruments. Music is defined as any combination of sounds that is pleasing to the ear, so while one person may find it as "noise" another person can find it pleasing to the ear and so call "vibe" with it as how I think the kids would say it these days.

Re: Rap is technically music
You have a...fundamentally unsound understanding of what Rap is, in a way that is legitimately concerning to me.
Rap is "gang slang" and "street sounds"...I just...I can't. Do you actually know any black people at all? Completely serious question. All i wanna do is *gunshot* *gunshot* *gunshot* *gunshot* *click* *cash register noise* explain to you how absolutely ridiculous the thing you just said was. |

Re: Rap is technically music
If your definition of good music is "Good lyrics to sit around and listen to and think about" maybe, but not all music is FOR that.

Re: Rap is technically music
See what gets me is, huge swats of Rap is specifically targeted to Black Culture but when someone not that demographic doesn't understand the appeal it's becausethey don't know black people apparently.
Maybe it's just that people don't get what is specifically not made for them instead? Although, the fact that mainstream rap makes this claim while traditionally having problematic issues with womanizing, gang violence and toxic tribe mentality probably doesn't help their case? Like if I was black I would probably be pissed that the genre made for my culture casually drops lines about picking up hoes and killing fuckers I don't agree with as the norm. This doesn't represent the entirety of the genre (because of course not, I'm not stupid to think any musical genre is completely one note) but damn if it feels like that's what a good majority of it is and it's off putting to anyone who doesn't want to internalize that kind of content. No amount of positive examples you can link me could outnumber me giving you sever problematic ones that probably got more airtime (although if you want to be petty and play that out, it's gonna have to be later in the week) |
