Answer 1

Oh no one in this section really wants to hear you b*tch about how "Hip hop is bad for kids and its not music blah blah."
Honestly if you don't know sh*t about real hip hop and the culture that comes with it then you have no room to speak on it. You can click your happyass back to the country music section of Y!A. Take your little "Rap is Crap" posse with you.

Answer 2

All rappers dont act tough, some dont even curse. Its good for America cause some ppl only like hip hop and they would have nothing else to listen to if it leaves. Plus hip hop gets African Americans out the ghetto and into the CEO chair of major companies.

Answer 3

Its good for america because its different. Now I don't agree with the cursing, down grading women, down grading the Law, I don't agree with the negative stuff. But there are some real good rap and hip hop music. But as a whole its not good for america.

Answer 4

hi, human beings have mentioned that approximately all rock and roll and pa song over the final 50 years. maximum individuals merely listened to the beat and not the words that have been no longer elementary to tell apart on the suited of circumstances. jointly as I even have your ear, although i might desire to assert i've got faith Afro-American song has long gone down hill horribly over the final 25 years. Rap replaced into ok whilst it first got here out yet has been so overkilled very such as the River Dance Irish and Celtic song. interior the 60's you had this variety of variety from Otis Redding, Isaac Hayes, Jimmy Hendrix by using to Diana Ross and the Supremes, The container Tops to no longer point out Dion Warwick by using to the Jackson 5, Gladys Knight, Tina Turner and this variety of high-quality variety of others too distinctive to checklist right here. What passed off? Its all rap or that whiney Whitney Huston piano bar stuff. I have not have been given any quarrel with the toddlers yet i wish to work out a clean reneissance in black song in my final 20 or 30 years. Cheers, Michael Kelly

Answer 5

It's pointless to YOU, because you don't understand the history of it and the culture. And for you to assume that it's all about a "though guy" image, only proves that you've never really dissected this genre and are clueless about! I agree with everyone else, don't like it, don't listen to it. It's the simpliest rule! Go listen to some country music and do some line-dancing.

Answer 6

uh, the rock/pop section is down one spot from the hip-hop selection on the entertainment and music column. You hit the wrong button.

Thank you. Don't come again.

Answer 7

Dude,why do we do anything?, it's good for the economy. If you dont like rap, dont listen to it, but dont tell others what to listen to. Your reality is over rated, make your own life instead of living the one they want you to.
