Wanna know why rap music must be stopped?

Question

Rap music:
-degrades the english language
-promotes tagging and vandalism
-degrades women
-implies postivity to primitive force (look at any metal cd, and youll see an imaginative cover with interesting artwork, look at a hip hop cd, and youll see a pissed off nigra wanting to fight)
-shifts values to "bling" and expensive shoes which leads to theft
-sounds like crap

Rap can be made by ANYBODY, a preset drum machine is all you need to make primitve music and get signed to a record label. If youve been shot, thats credible and prefered to hype your image, just like growing up on the "street"
The lyrics are simple, the sentences dont need to be related, just whatever can ryhme is fine. They dont even have to make sense, just as long as it sticks to an even flow. And sometimes, rappers will get lazy and mispronounce words to rhyme.
Now some of you guys are gonna say "omg racist", but more thn half of all nigra music is sold to whites. No other genre of music promotes more negative values than hip hop, and as it spreads toward different regions, it infects the native population like a fungus.

Answer 1

This is ignorant not because it's racist, but because it's attacking the art that reflects the issues and not the issues themselves.

The problems you refer to are all products of a marginalized urban population that is in constant decay... a socio-economic issue, not a racial one. Rap is art that stems from that environment, and like all art, it reflects its origins. But thinking you'll stop urban decay by stopping rap music is ridiculous.

Answer 2

rap is not bad - the people who rap the way you are talking about are the ones making the mistake -
ever hear of Christian rap - uses all the same things you are speaking of with God at the center and brings Glory to Jesus
there are lots of them out there
dont be a hater b/c you dont like the music

Answer 3

I'm sure you'll have a lot of luck eliminating a billion dollar industry. I don't care for rap music myself, but if somebody else likes it that is their business. Fifty years ago they said rock'n'roll was the music of the devil. If you don't like rap music don't listen to it - put on some Mozart instead.

Also, if you think its easy to get up in front of a crowd of total strangers and make up rhymes off the top of your head you should try doing it - it isn't as easy as it looks.

Answer 4

jesus is cool and hes on a go in case you do not believe in god then it is your loss mary and joseph raised a good son yet juddess turned right into a grey cloud who by no ability had relaxing so he planned a seize for jesus to fall in or maybe as he kicked the bucket all of Bethlehem become ballin praise the lord and experience free contained in the backyard i love the flea market cuz its continuously were given a bargan peace be with you..over and out!

Answer 5

hip hop is a culture, they can voice whatever they want, even though i also disagree with the degradation of women is unacceptable, early hip-hop was very different than much of what is out there today, but its a free country, if you don't like it, don't listen to it, i don't listen to christian rock, i don't like it, you can't have the world work your way

Answer 6

There are offensive lyrics in other genres of music as well, and there are also some rap songs that are not offensive. There is even some Christian rap. I really don't think you can pinpoint one type of music as being the most evil.

Answer 7

Rap music is just like any other music it tells a story. And for your information ignoramus, there are many Christan rap groups.

Answer 8

rap is crap fair enough? i think it is and i think even gospel music needs to be stopped along with some of the country music along with it so why do you care what people listen to anyways? and you blame music for the way people act? now aint ya just mature as a adult should be. humans kill humans it has nothing to do with what they listen to or play as video games or what they watch on TV it has to deal with what the person believes is good and right for them get over your self already and your a christians and no saint thats for sure

Answer 9

all rap ain't that bad it just depends who the artist is like 2pac he spoke the truth with a little violent now days you got these young artist using profanity so all rap ain't that bad....
