Good class architecture is not like a Swiss Army Knife; it should be more like a well balanced throwing knife.

Well, besides the fact I used to listen to rap about 3 years ago and know tons of people who like it, if you insist that I am totally ignorant about rap then it must be true. I have heard all kinds of rap, and ALL the mainstream stuff absolutely is garbage as I've been describing. I have heard some less popular songs as well that are not AS BAD, but are not good. Now, this all comes down to a musical preference even though rap is hardly what I consider music. The only musical part of rap that I see is the bass. In my mind rap consists of two things: bass, and talking. So YES, 90% of rap is garbage, noise.Originally Posted by Govtcheez

loud, unpleasant, unexpected, and undesired are all relative terms.Sound or a sound that is loud, unpleasant, unexpected, or undesired
By your own logic, the vast majority of the "sounds" you've made in this thread are noise. I'm pretty sure that makes you a rapper.

Lol, yes that is quite hilarious how the whole topic of rap started from one incorrectly spelled word. Sly you truly made me laugh just there with your past two posts. Wow, that's good stuff. I just hate rap so I didn't mind getting into why it's awful when Govtcheez(a fellow Michigander) inquired.

pick out the multitude of instruments (see how many you can
count); and finally look for the message in the lyrics.
I don't neccesarily agree with Immortal's message - but I consider
him to be one of the best rappers out there atm.
Also try listening to some classic hip-hop: wu-tang clan, a tribe
called quest, and even black eyed peas before they went
pop (grr BEP! )
I understand that if someone simply doesn't like something, there is
almost nothing anyone can do to change that. However, I think
that EVERYTHING can be appreciated...you just have to put some
effort into it. Give it a chance.

I suggest you take a cold shower. His intolerance of a musical style is threatening your life?
No?... Cool then.
EDIT: I hate rap btw

There are three things a man will fight for to the death Mario: his woman, his God, and his music preferences.
my music preference is far and wide. My favorite, by far, is jazz; I'll takeOriginally Posted by citizen
some Thelonius Monk and John Coltrane over anything I also love
electronic music, esspecially hard house, acid, and drum and base;
hip-hop rates near the top as well. Actually I don't think there is a
music type I don't like. I can tell you that I don't own any punk rock, or
heavy metal music though.
