Why do people hate rap? Enough with the BS. (punk, cd, stations)

I just prefer to have a nice guitar rift or a nice techno beat behind my morally-degrading music. Rap just doesn't fit the billet of what I enjoy.

There's a whole world out there.

Who you calling a dope? Get with the program man. Rap sucks. That is your opinion and my opinion. That must mean it is a fact.

I beg to differ if you're going to write off a song you won't even listen to.

I seem to recall seeing a clip of Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton 'scratching' at some party. lol

Yep, that takes 'talent'.

Actually what takes 'talent' is knowing how to discern something as a skill or art from everything else.

Are you the type that walks into a museum and sees a piece of modern art that looks like someone basically threw paint over a canvas and say, "Oh that's not art...I can do that!"

What shouldn't take that much talent is to recognize an obvious joke....

See Drover got it!

Actually MissShona, I do that all the time, but it doesn't mean I don't appreciate someone else doing it before me.

We all recognize different things as skillful or talent.
