Well I mean rap is hot trash.
I'm a 60yo white guy, and this comment hurts me. I used to be in your camp until the radio stations I typically listened to (rock, country, classical) in GTA San Andreas got old and I flipped on the hip-hop station just to get something different.
I don't know hip-hop like I know rock or country, but there is a lot of that music that gets five stars on my music server.
I'm 40 and I grew up listening to rap mostly and metal. I grew up in an era where, at least where I lived, there was this "I listen to everything but rap and country" attitude. There is really great music everywhere you look. It took me a while to look at country to realize what I was missing, though, so I guess I was a part of the problem.
Let's get down to brass tacks: I probably couldn't stand what you pass off as "music" either, but you don't see me showing up at the circus, telling you what notes to play on the organ.
Go ahead, show the world how ignorant you are.
