Hip Hop Music

[Thizz]

Why is it, when people are asked what kind kind of music they like, they invariably say, " Anything but rap,..........."? What is with people? What is wrong with hip hop? If you only listen to the stuff they put on MTV, then you haven't heard real hip hop. If you are gonna condemn hip hop, listen to the real stuff. If you dislike hip hop after listening to Talib Kweli, Saigon, Common, The Fugees, etc, then I guess there is no hope. If not, don't pass judgement. My rant, over.

Alrighty then...I can feel a conflict coming on...

 

[MuNkY]

I'll admit, for all the rock I listen too, I do have a soft spot for some rap/hip hop. The people I listen to are....

Eminem
50 Cent
Nelly
Dr. Dre
Fabolous
DMX

...and that's about it.

I like a small amount of rap and hip hop, and it's not mainstream stuff. Most of it just doesn't appeal to me. Everyone has their own taste in music.

 

[thuntzox]

I like rap and hip hop, but not all of it. I take hip hop dance classes so I like the music that you can dance to, I just don't really like hardcore rapping. Did that make sense? haha

 

[Babyjustrun]

When I mean anything but rap, it's generally when they can only talk about a womans **** or how much ice or bling they have.

but i'll listen to :

Eminem
Bubba Sparx
Chamillionaire
50 Cent (Outta Control Remix is love)
Fat Joe (Get It Poppin')
Fort Minor (Petrified & Where'd You Go)
Bodyrockers

I really dislike rap. I also dislike country. I've just not found any of it that I like yet. I'm sure theres some out htere, but Ive not found it.

 

[Improv_Scarf]

Well, everyone has their own taste in music. Like me, I enjoy real old stuff from the 20s and 40s. Though I myself dislike rap/hip hop, I've taken hip-hop classes but never really found any interest in the music I was dancing too. So, there is always going to be people who have different interests! My best friend is the hard rocker who listens to rap and what not. I'm the bluesy, big band, swing kind-of gal. So, it's no use to try to force opinions upon people. Some may try it and like it, but there will always be someone who will never like it. That's what makes people so interesting!

[StitchfansJr]

I listen to a little rap/hip-hop. I just listen to the radio station that has all the popular songs. I don't dislike a certian kind of music. If it a popular song I'll listen to it.

 

[DDRManiac]

i do DJ'ing and Rap and Hip-Hop are my main source of mixing and favorite tracks to play at gigs so i certainly have a special place for hip hop i just happen to prefer Trance, House and Techno

 

[kjkcool]

Most of my music is Hip hop/rap!I like it but I'm not partial to any genre in particular.I truely like any music that can get me movin,singing,or make me care or know what it's about(most music does it for me so.lol).I don't like all the bad things they can have in rap,but these days it's in almost every genre so I ignore it!I rambled and I liked it.

 

[U Just Got PUNKD]

I think of rap/hip hop is sorta my 'Fun' music.

xD
Yeah,
I know it sounds weird but I like to listen to it when I'm in a really happy mood.
I listen to...
Eminem
Kayne West (Or how ever you spell it)
and Bubba Sparxx (Only because of Ms. New Booty xD)

 

[KidGoofy]

Sorry made an extra check the on below.

What is the problem about people having different tastes in music. I only listen to certain new things. I mostly listen to is classic rock. But the only rap i listen to is the song Aerosmith and Run DMC did, and the song Public Enemy and Anthrax did.

Kanye West is amazing.
though, i'm not ashamed to say, the best part of the Touch The Sky video is when he dies.. i'm not a fan of.. well Golddigger xD

 

[tashasKraz4WDW]

Well I agree with you to a point.. You really can't base true hip hop talent on artist who make a living by talking about sex, money, and drugs... But there are artist such as you named who to me truely represents hip hop.. There music has a good positive message which I personally can relate to... Then again to each his own because as much as 1 person might not care for hip hop music I don't care for heavey medal hard core rock music..

generally the beat is the best part of the song.
anything can be music, people just classify it differently.
