What’s astounding is how many white middle class kids and adults love rap music. And I really have no idea why.
It’s garbage. I had the pleasure of listening to lil Wayne “sing” the other day (I’ve never listened to him before) and was baffled how he is a multi platinum selling artist who has sold more records than Elvis.
He sucks. Rap sucks. The artists can’t sing. The lyrics are atrocious. The tonal quality of the music is on par with cavemen beating rocks together. The topics are typically vulgar and self serving. It’s awful overall.
I don’t like country music either but at least most of them can carry a tune or write decent Melodies or actually rhyme their words. I don’t like death metal but at least I can respect the talent behind the way they shred their guitars. Rap has no redeeming qualities.
The "best" rap is simply talking fast with a backbeat and it's downhill from there.
I think it makes sense in the context of teenagers hanging out, fucking around and experimenting with self-expression The real question I have is how it came to be considered music and took over the airwaves.
Really depends on your definition of rap, but I think you've never heard good rap. Here is some stuff I love: https://youtu.be/XoBzp0CvJ50https://youtu.be/Ir8xLSoz8VI
The first song is literally about hip hop culture. This absolutely works without any electronics. If anything, that makes it better

Rap is popular because the left has cemented the idea of the cool magic negroid into western thought.
