Is rap more a status symbol than enjoyable music? I mean it is always about going to jail, hookers, or being a pansy gangster. Why doesnt it ever get old not to mention low class stupid. Why???

Once again you are only paying attention to what is being presented to you. Rap is not only about being a gangster a guns and sex and hoes and pimps. that is really not what rap is even about. That style is just what is popular right now. They are celebrating low class living while they live in a mansion. I'm sure there are plenty of bands that you know of that don't get any airplay because you took the time to seek them out. Same goes for rap groups. Alot of groups are doing positive rap music that respect women, speak of peace, do not curse, talk about God, etc...unfortunately it is not popular and it won't sell any records.

That right there is a stereotype of rap and also pretty much all mainstream rap. there actually are other rap songs out there that arent about hookers and gangsters you just have to know where to find them. Also not all of a certain artist's songs are bad. For example Jesus Walks by Kanye West i think is a really good rap song. But thats just me.

My little sister listens to rap, and I always ask her the same thing. She can never give me a straight answer either.

rap is not always about the same thing but the record companies only push a certain type because that is what is most popular...and last i heard, it was young white boys who were buying most of it...SO ROCK ON TO THAT..DUDES!!!

because our society has deteriorated so badly that we accept this crap, it is not ALL bad, but for the most part say 98% it is unacceptable as music, but people continue to buy it, because they are sheep and that is the same people on here that cant spell, etc....

Do you notice that the only answer that is pro-rap, is also grammatically incorrect?
