[elmnts of trnce]

RAP is not all about violence sex and drugs, it's the majority of artists who rap ABOUT those things. A lot of rap music you hear glorifies guns sex and drugs because that is what is played on RADIO, a.k.a. commercial rap. These artists have no talent, but they're played on many major radio stations why? Because all these radio stations care about is making $$$. Honestly, most people who listen don't realize how shitty the music is, and that's how these stations make their money. BUT that is NOT what rap is. True rap music is about self expression and speaking out your ideas. Take Pharoah Monch, Mike Shinoda, and Common for example. They are true rap artists, and not some wannabe on the radio with 15 guys behind em going "YO YO! and "YEA!"

Take this excerpt from one of Pharoah Monch and Mike Shinoda's songs:

I've been diggin in crates ever since I was livin in space
Before the rat race, before monkeys had human traits
I mastered numerology and big bang theology, performed lobotomies
with telekinetic psychology.

Do you see "hoez" or "glock" or "i get high" anywhere in that? Please understand that rap is NOT just ignorant words spoken in rhythm, its just the commercial crap on radio that gives people the wrong impression.

My 2 cents.

[xjjajeengx]

^ wow...

anyways. i'd say country. i cant stand that stuff. best genre ever made is def R&B YAYUHHH sorry anyways~ yea country music scares me. esp. like korean style country music. eww aka bbongjjak

[F_L_I_P]

im sorry i cant stand country. and yea im surprised that rap is beating country. haha. rap is kinda played out being that all it talks about is sex, drugs, and ass.

jackie

OMG no it doesnt hey thats steroetyping.

-Phil-

[hybrid]

If you really REALLY think about it, Country isn't that bad.. well, just one country song though. That's all. ONE COUNTRY SONG isn't that bad. Hehe.

[*jooleeah*]

definetely country. i hate country.

[maliitashun]

rap isn`t only about sex `nd drugs.. =|

I like anything really... except.. country.. just blah.

[Disappearing Boy]

I'm least interested in country. I only heard this one song. I can't say I was excited. But maybe there are other good songs..I think.

[elmogurly]

I think country and rap takes the cake for worst genre of music.

[PAPAHSMuRF]

either rap or country .

[me1issaaaa]

I really dont like rap, most rappers dont even have any talent, their just talking in rhythm. Its so gay.

*nods* agreed.

[nightsong]

i hate mainstream rap. the end. (:

[aznxdarkricex]

i like all genres of music...but the one im least interested in is country...just aint my thing

same here

[PinoyOtaku]

Rap. I can stand country but not rap.

[inquisitive_]

I say none. I don't listen to country but there are different people who like different music than me so I say none! Any type of music is good for the soul!

[F1R3B4T]

i love rap!!! lol...

[DarkCrescentMoon]

rap..rap..RAP! evil rap.


as my friend fig says:

you can't spell crap without r-a-p

I personally think rappers have no talent. i cant understand them either..even if i could i'm sure they'd sing about sex and gang violene.something i dont wanna hear...

[Captin_Crunch]

country music should die!!!!

[Rachel]

country

[ryfitaDF]

country- singing about loving george bush, losing your truck, losing your wife, losing your dog, and being a redneck
metal- loud noises, lyrics you can't understand, and b.o.
rap- eather promoting guns, sex, and drugs, or promoting jesus or other things (in which case it's really lame)
pop- talentless, make-up wearing, run of the mill blonde white girl also promoting sex.
dance- 7 minutes of the same EFFing beat at the same EFFing tempo with maybe some fills. all the songs have the same beat, too.

they all suck. i like metal best and country least, though.

[Just AJ]

My 2 cents.

xoxo_koala_kisses_, CloudUnionX, f00LisH_h3aRt63, DarkCrescentMoon: Maybe ya'll should read this , the only people that say that rap is all about drugs, sex, and stuff like that have never actually listened to a rap song that wasn't on the radio, since it is true what elmnts said: radio stations only play songs that will get them the most money, and there are very few times when a rap song with a moral or something makes enough money to be on radio because of people like you that assume that all rap is bad.

[frzn-lilyv]

country!

[lucky_clover]

i don't like metal, it's just too hard and it sometimes involve with violence, and i can't stand violence either.

[bballchick1]

i voted for metal

[CloudUnionX]

I dont remember ever saying that all rap was only about drugs, sex, ect.

I really dont like rap, most rappers dont even have any talent, their just talking in rhythm. Its so gay.

See. And last time I checked, I can also talk fast with a beat in the background. Its not exactly hard, neither is it full of talent.

[Caitlin]

country music. nothing wrong with it just its not my type of music

[Smoke360]

I really dont like rap, most rappers dont even have any talent, their just talking in rhythm. Its so gay.

Most rappers are underground.

Most rappers -- you have NEVER heard.

Rapping includes many elements: similies, metaphors, wordplay, multi-syllabic rhyme schemes, alliterations..

It is the most lyrically-demanding music genre out there, and it takes true determination to become skilled with rap (being skilled does NOT mean being famous).

[CloudUnionX]

It is the most lyrically-demanding music genre out there

Who says its the most lyrically demanding music genre out there? You? hmm, thats not very convincing.

And most of my bands are underground too. I dont really listen to any mainstream, and most of my favorite bands I guarantee YOU havent heard of either. So dont try to throw that in my face... btw, im not trying to fight with you about this, im just stating my oppinions. lol.

[Levy2k6]

rap is awesome cuz it expresses feelings and stuff... and if all they want to talk about sex and drugs.. good for them..


i dont like the mainstream stuff..... im more into like Dirty South rap and alternative rock... lol.


metal metal metal stuff ain't that good.

[Smoke360]

Give me a genre that could possibly be more lyrically demanding, and I'll do my best to convince you..

[CloudUnionX]

Give me a genre that could possibly be more lyrically demanding, and I'll do my best to convince you..

You see, your hooked on rap and hip hop, just like im hooked on metal and sh!t. Theres no way of you convincing me, and theres no way of me convincing you, therefore, I am arguing no more.

[Devastation]

uhhno.

[Mr. Psychotic]

ok first off all you people that dont like metal...well i hate you then um...someone said something about "why are you yelling at me" well i say its because we can then someone said something along the lines of "metal is just someone growling into a mic and who would someone want to listen to that" that is not true they only do that for a lil bit then someone said it makes them "bored and they want to fall alseep" but how can it make you fall asleep if its LOUD AND HARD!!!

Me <3 Metal........any kind at that...\m/ <(>_<)> \m/

[ryfitaDF]

Give me a genre that could possibly be more lyrically demanding, and I'll do my best to convince you..

look up some cradle of filth lyrics (they're metal). it's like edgar allen poe shyte.

i'm not saying that rap isn't hard, i'm just saying that lyrics don't really very from genre to genre. they could be good or could be bad.

[gelionie]

I hate metal. It's the worse genre of music.

[Mr. Psychotic]

i think something that factors into people not liking metal is because of the fact that it isnt that popular and its not "trendy" most people like to go with the crowd like at school and stuff like that

[CloudUnionX]

Ok, its lyric time. If this is a little long... deal with it people.

Cannae - Pretty Noise

One out of a million, they don't see me. I am to this world as a raindrop is
to your forehead. Suppressed only by myself. I need to let me out, out of the
sky falling. Time and mind seperated only by night and day. They all seem the
same to me, no matter what anyone might say, I will never what I want,
"free", like addiction I must come back to this. Endless loops of creativity,
creatively sitting alone.

Old Man's Child - Agony of Fallen Grace

Spread the words no time to dwell
Stop denying your inner self
Forced into a religious cell
The agony of fallen grace
At once, come forth
Deny the facts of life
Destroy their gods
And blame it on the weak
Several miles of death's formation
They march towards his grace
To the cliffs and the abyss of the damned
The loss of man, and fall of God
And now you will die
While suffering from within
The aspire to rule
Will faint away with you
We come for you
With the devil's assent
Creeping up from behind
Tearing you down

Cradle of Filth - Dusk And Her Embrace (partial)

When the sun has wept upon the waveless lake
And the mists steal in with ease
Covened wolves are their eerie dissonant napes
In adoration of the moon and thee

"They call as I to thee...."

And I will come, as if in dream
My languid, dark and lustrous Malaresian Queen
Of vengeful, ancient breed
Gilded with the pelts of many enemies
Erishkigal, raven-haired
Thy seduction haunts the castle in erotic despair
I can taste thy scent by candlelight
Legs of porcelain traced and laced to their lair
Appease the beast on spattered sheets
Dyed unearthly red as sobriety weeps

Nocternity....
She shall come for me

A black velvet painting sprung to elegant life
Like a poignant Madonna perverted to night
And I have ridden from the westerning light
To expend my lust
Tear away the funereal dress
Know that I will escape from my death
Surrendered to the splendour of her sharpened caress.

Arch Enemy - Saints And Sinners

Born with eyes
But they are not to see
Living on your knees
Choking on your spiritual agony
Follow the traces of blood
Throughout the past centuries
You choose not to see
Bow down and worship me at the altar of shame

You strive for perfection
But you don't have the tools
Human weakness embodied
Fodder for fools
Feeding the fear of life itself
Over and over again
And choose not to see

Bow down and worship me at the altar of shame

So you're the saint and I'm the sinner?
You will never understand
You're the saint and I'm the sinner
No - you will never understand

Born with eyes
But they are not to see
Living on your knees
Choking on your spiritual agony
Follow the traces of blood
Throughout the past centuries
You choose not to see
Bow down and worship me at the altar of shame

Just to name a very few.

[ryfitaDF]

i think something that factors into people not liking metal is because of the fact that it isnt that popular and its not "trendy" most people like to go with the crowd like at school and stuff like that

it would explain why country is in last, but isn't rap popular in school? theres more people who like metal than rap here.

[Only1Alvic]

country- singing about loving george bush, losing your truck, losing your wife, losing your dog, and being a redneck
metal- loud noises, lyrics you can't understand, and b.o.
rap- eather promoting guns, sex, and drugs, or promoting jesus or other things (in which case it's really lame)
pop- talentless, make-up wearing, run of the mill blonde white girl also promoting sex.
dance- 7 minutes of the same EFFing beat at the same EFFing tempo with maybe some fills. all the songs have the same beat, too.

^ too funny

I dont like.........reggae....cuz they sold out...yall can do better than naming out dance moves on hip-hop tracks and now you can say it has reggae styles in it....please

on the other hand reggaeton rocks.......

[Mr. Psychotic]

it would explain why country is in last, but isn't rap popular in school? theres more people who like metal than rap here.

well i was kinda talking about where i am because where i live and stuff pretty much everyone are like "gangster" people and stuff like that

[tallaznkate]

i'M NOT TOO CRAZY ABOUT METAL

[elmnts of trnce]

See. And last time I checked, I can also talk fast with a beat in the background. Its not exactly hard, neither is it full of talent.

See. YOU are making a GENERALIZATION based on what you hear on radio. Don't get me wrong, I listen to ALL types of music, but I'm just trying to give people the right information. What smoke said was right though, MOST of rap you never heard, so please don't insult the music based on a thin thread of knowledge. Did you read my first post on this topic? It held an example of profound, intellectual rap. And I do agree that amazing lyrics lie in all music, I just can't stand people bashing something they don't know much about . And thanks AJ for at reading what I said, most people nowadays just POST without reading what was said before them

[»LuCiOu§_Ki§§ez«]

0mg!! i HATE c0unty music...n0 0ffence 2 c0untry ppl

[CloudUnionX]

No, I have heard more rap than you know. Obviously you dont know what kind of school I go to. Anyways, all I'm doing is stating my opinions on what rap ive heard. I just plain dont like it. Are you telling me that I cannot state my opinions? Because if you are, your wrong, becuase I already have stated my opinions, and theres nothing you can do about it now. But thank you for trying to judge and understand what I was saying.

[DisneyPrincessKa...]

I'm going to have to say rap because it's talking to a beat, which isn't music.

[ErikMichaelschee...]

I love most kinds of music but the only one that I am not really into is country..not against it but I'm just not into it.

[jo3]

i'm assuming most of the country-haters are asian?

not to be stereotypical or anything, but alot of asians that i kno (including myself) dislike country. some country's alrite...but i'd much rather listen to something else

[Spirited Away]

I like country (^^and I'm Asian , I guess I'm just weird) and some rap, but I refuse to listen to rave/dance music....

[seriouslynikki]

im asian and i am okay with country but as i said again, i ABSOLUTELY hate RAP!!

[JessJR1022]

I cannot stand Rap music..... country is a close second too... and pop is a close to that too....... bleh.....

I listen to punk, rock and some hardcore bands

[inlonelinessidie]

POLKA !!!

Totally.

[RealFolkBlues]

For the most part, all mainstream music sucks. Underground metal is, meh, ok, mainstream metal sucks. Mainstream pop, well, all pop is mainstream, pop for popular, so, i dont even have to say anything there. All country sucks, especially mainstream, not that ive heard any other. New mainstream rap sucks. Old rap, wasnt that mainstream, and it was good, i have been so digusted with mainstream rap that i havent given any other new rap a listen. Finally, mainstream dance, i havent even heard of mainstream dance music, but some trance is pretty good.
I leave you with these thoughts to ponder, and wonder why someone started a thread so negative, if you started a poll on, lets say, someones favorite genre, you'd get a lot more arguing.

[Joyie]

Metal.

[xx angelbabu xx]

i like all kinds of music cept country... country just freaks me out.. haha

[morgs8384]

i voted for rap.. i just.. BLAH!!!! i used to really like it.. but now i love country music...


ALL YOU COUNTRY HATERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[imadorkabledxd]

country

[vivieeeen]

oh~ i don't know
The Hilary Duff kind?

[racegirl24A]

i voted for rap.. i just.. BLAH!!!! i used to really like it.. but now i love country music...


ALL YOU COUNTRY HATERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<high five>

whats with all the country haters?? its not my favorite genre of music, but its still good. yay country!

as far as the worst genre ever..i agree with you again morgs8384! rap=

[xLil SweetnezZx]

Top 3 hated genres
-Pop (i dunno why i hate it so much)
-Rap
-Country (I don't mind it that much)

[Kaisee]

Femo. Fake emo. In my opinion, fake emo includes Taking Back Sunday, Thrice, Brand New, etc

In my mind, emo includes: Bright Eyes, Cursive, Sunny Day Real Estate, Mineral, Azure Ray, etc...

But like I said, I'm not trying to make that a fact, just my general opinion

[acidbreeze]

polka
pointless rap
uninventive techno

[*corizzle20*]

[FONT=Geneva]definitely country.

[tsohg]

oh~ i don't know
The Hilary Duff kind?

O AMEN! i say we get rid of her

[*basick*]

i dunno what to say cause i see all these dude say rap but they only hear songs dj kayslay BLEEPmaster flex say are hot. which is wrong. i mean i dont like country but im not an expierenced listener. i mean if you want to hate on a genre accually listen to it more in depth you know what im saying?

[magnificentmike]

i can't believe more people hate rap than metal. i seriously cant stand metal its all about yelling, what kinda music is that? and you can say anything you want about rap like its all "YO YO YO F*CK YOU AND EAT THIS B*TCH!" but not all of the music is like that ya know..and country i just cant stand either. but honestly i'd rather listen to country then metal..it at least has a tune to it

[wazn]

country would have to be my least favorite... some metal is alright, but i've heard songs where the the singer's voice goes so low and raspy you can't understand it. if you took out the vocals of metal like that, it would be decent

and is it just me, or do metal, punk, and emo groups have the stupidest band names ever?

[CloudUnionX]

And is it just me, or do metal, punk, and emo groups have the stupidest band names ever?

In you'r oppinion, what are some stupid metal band names?

[CrimsonXero]

I cannot tell you how much I despise rap. It's truly annoying and I find no emotion in it at all. But then others will definitely disagree with me on that point. I attempted. I listend. I didn't like. It's done. *puts on some metal*

wazn  Posted on Sep 8 2004, 11:36 PM

and is it just me, or do metal, punk, and emo groups have the stupidest band names ever?

It's just you. Or at least I think it is. I appreciate a good deal of all metal, punk, and emo band names.

[pbear]

Rap, hands down.

[nyctophiliac]

eww i'd definatley have to say country...sorry all you people that like that music but it's rather annoying to me

[vivieeeen]

I seriously don't understand why there isn't an "other"

[lcsblogfool]

I don't like rappers
becoz i think they are not singing
they are talking only...

[XxmisspreciousxX]

I hate metal and country. I mean heavy metal is way too loud and even in those head banging concerts, people throw and push eachother all other place. Country music is kinda lame. No offense to people who like it but thats just my opinion. I find it annoying. I don't like goth music either. It sounds as if they are devil worshippers.

[rhqtpie]

i hate techno sooooooooooo much. and why doesnt anybody like rap all the songs arent bout sex and drugs

[vivieeeen]

I don't like rappers
becoz i think they are not singing
they are talking only...

"did you know" that the early age of music started with chanting?

[Sumiaki]

Maybe if RAP had more things in their songs than just "bitches, hos, drugs, thugs, and pimpin" Then maybe just maybe it wouldn't be the worst genre of music.

[*basick*]

Maybe if RAP had more things in their songs than just "bitches, hos, drugs, thugs, and pimpin" Then maybe just maybe it wouldn't be the worst genre of music.

[sarcasm] no doubt you listen to alotta rap. [/sarcasm]

[LilPiggi3]

Rap is the worse genre of music next to country. I can't understand a word they are saying because they either: have 5-8 [blleeeepppps] in their sentences or they talk too fast you can't even understand a single word. Rap is just talking fast with music in the back, if someone talks fast and adds music to what they are saying...does that make then a rapper?

[LeSLiE]

I really dont like rap, most rappers dont even have any talent, their just talking in rhythm. Its so gay.

Same as that person.. and they're always rapping with another person.. can they not do the song by themselves?
